How much should the commission to the Cooperating Broker (“buyer’s broker”) be?
Valu-net Realty recommends that the commission you offer the cooperating broker be as close as possible to ½ of the typical commission in your area. With Valu-net Realty the commission you offer is totally up to you. However, we do not accept listings offering commissions to buyer’s brokers of less than 2% or flat fees below $1,250.00. Commission rates and/or fees are negotiable, as is every element of the listing contract. Ultimately, it is your business decision how much, or how little, to offer the buyer’s broker.
