REALTORSÂ® spend more than $510 million each year on business or closing gifts for their clients, according to the latest REALTORÂ® Magazine Reader Profile Study (MRI Custom Division), conducted in 2005. But although youâre long on generosity, itâs tough to come up with new ideas all the time.
On average, the fee can range anywhere from 4% to 6% of the home value, but the industry standard is 6%, which is split 50/50 with the buyerâs and sellerâs agent. So for example, a homeowner that sells a home for $200,000 would have to pay up to $12,000 in real estate agent fees if they were to pay the full 6%. This fee wonât be paid until you reach escrow and the sale is finalized. Once finalized, the funds will automatically be transferred to the brokerage at closing.
