Understanding Real Estate Commissions
The seller pays a total commission fee for selling their home. The total commission fee is comprised of two parts. The first part is the “Listing Fee” (This is the commission fee the seller’s brokerage is paid for representing the seller) and the second part is the “Cooperating Buyer Brokerage Fee” (This is the commission fee that goes to the brokerage that brings in and represents the successful buyer). 

In California it is ok for the same brokerage and/or agent to represent both the seller and the buyer thus reducing the amount of splits but usually not the commission fee.

Your Savings
Uwin Realty Group's 1.75% listing side fee is 1.25% lower than a traditional 6% brokerage. On a $400,000 home this would be a savings of $5,000. Take a look below as we compare Uwin Realty Group to a traditional 6% brokerage. Note that we only reduce our “Listing Fee” and not the commission fee paid to the “Cooperating Buyer’s Brokerage”. Offering less than the current market rate Cooperating Buyer Brokerage Commission Fee may result in fewer agents showing your home which could increase the time it takes to sell.

The current market rate Cooperating Buyer Brokerage Commission Fee is 2.5% - 3%.
