Looking for the best buyer rebate in real estate? The answer depends on one number: how much does the brokerage keep, and how much comes back to you?
ShopProp keeps a flat $1,995. Everything else — every dollar of the buyer agent commission above that — goes directly to you at closing.
No other brokerage returns more.
How Buyer Rebates Work
When you buy a home, the seller typically offers a buyer agent commission — usually 2% to 2.5% of the sale price. With a traditional agent, they keep the entire amount. With a flat-fee brokerage like ShopProp, you keep the difference between the commission offered and the flat fee charged.
The lower the flat fee, the bigger your rebate. It's that simple.

| Redfin | Varies | Limited/none | Varies |
| Traditional Agent | $25,000 (2.5%) | $0 | 0% |
