$1.65M home — buyer saved $36,255 with ShopProp

A beautifully appointed home. A buyer who knew exactly what they wanted. And a closing where the math spoke for itself.

The seller offered 2.5% to the buyer's agent — $41,250 on a $1.65 million sale. With a traditional agent, every dollar of that commission disappears into someone else's pocket.

With ShopProp, our buyer kept $36,255.

The Numbers

Sale Price$1,650,000
Buyer Agent Commission (2.5%)$41,250
ShopProp's Flat Fee$4,995
Rebate to Buyer$36,255

A traditional buyer's agent would have kept the full $41,250. ShopProp kept $4,995 — and returned 88% of the commission directly to our client at closing.

What $36,255 Means

That's not an abstract number. That's a kitchen renovation. A year of private school tuition. A significant addition to a retirement account. It's real money that belongs to the buyer — not the agent.

Same Expertise. Fraction of the Cost.

Our buyer had full managing broker representation throughout the transaction — from offer strategy through inspection negotiations to a successful close. The same expertise a traditional agent provides. The same attention. The same advocacy.

The only difference? We don't believe our fee should scale with your home's price. A $4,995 flat fee. Whether the home is $500,000 or $5,000,000.

The Quiet Confidence of Knowing

There's something elegant about transparency. No wondering what your agent is really making. No uncomfortable negotiations about commission splits. Just a published flat fee, a managing broker, and $36,255 back in your pocket at closing.

That's the ShopProp way. Since 2007.
