An example, not a fee quote. Commissions are negotiable. Your fee and rebate depend on the agreement and compensation received.
The arrangement
Agree on the fee.
Keep the balance.
A flat fee arrangement sets our compensation for representing you in the purchase. When the buyer-agent commission received exceeds that fee, the remaining amount is returned to you as a rebate under the agreed terms.
We discuss the scope of representation, compensation, and rebate before you commit, so you understand how the arrangement works for your purchase.

Common questions
A clear agreement.
A confident start.
How does a flat fee differ from a commission rebate?
With a flat fee, we agree on the amount we retain for representation, with the remaining commission returned under your agreement. A percentage rebate instead defines the share of our commission returned to you. We can discuss which approach fits your purchase.
Will you help if I have already found a property?
Yes. Many clients arrive with a home already identified. We can help arrange a showing, evaluate the property, and represent you through the purchase. If you need help searching, we can support that too.
Does the flat fee mean limited service?
The program includes full-service buyer representation. We discuss the support you need and document the scope of our work in your agreement.
Is a 2.5% commission guaranteed?
No. The example uses 2.5% for illustration. Commissions are negotiable, and the actual compensation and your fee must be confirmed for your purchase.
When do I receive any rebate?
The rebate is tied to a completed transaction and compensation received. Its form and timing are agreed in advance and coordinated with your closing team and any lender requirements.
