Another 5-star review — this time on Google. Ramkumar Kannan in San Jose found ShopProp through Reddit, did his research, and chose us for his home purchase. Here's what happened.
"Highly Recommend ShopProp: Expert Guidance, Zero Pressure, Huge Rebate. Buying a home can be incredibly stressful, but Rob and his team at ShopProp made the entire process as smooth as possible.I initially found ShopProp while researching flat-fee agents. I was a bit hesitant at first, but after reading numerous positive posts on Reddit, I realized just how knowledgeable Rob and his team are about the market.
Their online app and tools are fantastic. They provide comprehensive, step-by-step guidance, including market analysis, comps, property visits, and assistance with inspection reviews.
What I appreciated most was their zero-pressure approach — you dictate your offer, and there is absolutely no pushback from them, even if you want to offer well below the local comps.
In the end, we successfully secured our home, enjoyed a smooth closing, and received a huge rebate. I highly recommend Rob and the ShopProp team!"

What This Review Reveals About the ShopProp Experience
Ramkumar's review touches on every concern buyers have about flat-fee brokerages — and answers each one:
"I was hesitant at first" — Many buyers are. The flat-fee model sounds too good to be true. But Ramkumar did what smart buyers do: he researched. Reddit threads, reviews, press coverage. The more he learned, the more confident he became.
"Comprehensive, step-by-step guidance" — This isn't a DIY service. ShopProp provides market analysis, comps, property visits, and inspection review assistance. The same full-service experience a traditional agent provides — with a managing broker overseeing it all.
"Zero-pressure approach — you dictate your offer" — This is the consumer-driven model in action. Unlike traditional agents who push buyers toward higher offers (because their commission scales with price), ShopProp's flat fee means we have no financial incentive to push you higher. Your offer is your decision.
"Received a huge rebate" — The bottom line. ShopProp charges a flat fee starting at $1,995 and returns the rest of the buyer commission directly to the buyer at closing.
