How much do real estate agents charge to sell a home?
There is no set commission rate. In Florida, the compensation is negotiated between you and the brokerage and written into your listing agreement.
- No law and no association sets a rate.
- What you pay depends on the services included: photography, marketing, negotiation, closing coordination, and how any compensation to the buyer's agent is handled. That is negotiated too.
- Compare what each brokerage will actually do, in writing.
- Read how the fee is earned and when it is paid. It is normally paid at closing, out of the sale proceeds.
