*Base estimate: $5,250,000 closed price × assumed 2.5% buyer-agent commission × 60% rebate = $78,750. For the $5M+ tier, we offer a 60% rebate or more; contact Cress to determine any additional rebate. Actual savings depend on the final purchase price and commission Cress receives. The assumed commission is not a representation of this listing's offered or actual compensation. This is a hypothetical estimate, not a rebate paid on this sale.
