Fees
Webelieveintransparency fromthestart
Our list ing fee is 3% of t he purchase price, due at closing. Our fee-for-service is designed t o provide comprehensive and ef fect ive represent at ion t hroughout t he list ing and selling process.
By entering into a listing agreement, Pierce McLaughry Group provides exclusive representation. Our practice strictly avoids dual agency, meaning we will not represent any buyers in the transaction. Instead, we serve as facilitators/ transaction managers for unrepresented buyers only. In these instances, we apply a 1% surcharge on top of our standard 3% listing fee to effectively oversee the buyer's side of the transaction. It's crucial to emphasize that our loyalty and fiduciary responsibilities lie solely with you, the seller. However, managing communication and paperwork with buyers, their lenders, and attorneys still necessitates effort on our part.
Sellers have the option to include a Buyer's Agent fee in their listing as well.
While there's no requirement for Sellers to cover this fee, they might choose to do so. If you decide not to specify a buyer agent fee upfront, you can instruct us to inform buyer agents that you are open to considering a buyer agent fee as part of the offer, depending on the overall terms As we navigate recent industry changes, we believe these new rules offer a more straightforward way to understand how agents are compensated in each transaction However, it's important to note that many buyers may still include their agent's fee in an offer, and our seller clients should be prepared for this and ready to make a decision accordingly
What'sinit forme?
Navigating real estate commissions can indeed be perplexing for home sellers Given that most individuals sell a home only a handful of times in their lifetime, understanding the intricacies of how real estate agents are compensated in a transaction can be complex and multi-faceted Recent court rulings have brought this conversation to the forefront,providing clarity to buyer agent compensation and sparking new questions within the listing marketplace While the seller is under no obligation to pay the buyer's agent fee,it might be advisable for a seller to contemplate covering the buyer's agent fee Presented below is a breakdown of reasons to consider in making this decision:
- Ensures attractiveness to potential buyers seeking separate representation,fostering a fair and ethical process while minimizing conflicts of interest.It encourages buyer agents to actively participate in the transaction,promoting a collaborative approach and contributing to a successful and seamless sale process
- Buyers are ultimately the ones responsible for bringing funds to the transaction. To avoid buyer agents potentially not showcasing your home to their clients and to simplify the process, sellers may find it more practical to include the buyer's agent commission on top of their anticipated net amount from the sale.Buyers with limited cash can still compete effectively by financing the commission when the buyer's agent fee is integrated into the overall price
- When a road bump occurs,it?s important for all parties to have a trusted advisor to help them navigate the process while also being able to understand all points of view. Good buyers agents are solution-oriented,helping to find the proper middle ground between the parties that makes everyone feel that their voices are heard and their concerns are valid.
