A Glendale buyer just closed on a 4-bedroom, 1,978 sq ft home on Cordova Ave for $1,520,000. Their ShopProp fee: $5,995. A traditional 2.5% buyer agent commission would have cost $38,000. That is a $32,005 difference — money that stayed in the buyer's pocket at closing.
This is not an anomaly. ShopProp has been closing deals like this across Los Angeles, Glendale, Pasadena, and the broader LA metro since 2007. As a managing broker with 19 years of experience and over 300 closed transactions, Rob Luecke handles every deal personally.
Why Glendale Buyers Overpay for Representation
The median home price in Glendale hovers around $1.2 million. At a traditional 2.5% buyer agent commission, that is $30,000 just for representation. Most agents spend a few hours showing homes and writing offers, then collect five figures. Glendale buyers deserve better.
ShopProp charges a flat fee starting at $1,995 — regardless of the home price. You get full-service representation from a licensed managing broker: offer strategy, negotiation, inspection coordination, and closing support. The only difference is you keep the savings.

How It Works
ShopProp is a flat-fee brokerage, not a discount service. You get the same representation a traditional agent provides — offer writing, negotiation, inspections, closing coordination — but at a transparent price that does not scale with your home value.
Buyer flat fees start at $1,995 for homes under $500K. For a $1.5 million home in Glendale, the fee is $5,995. For homes over $2 million, it is $7,995 flat — no percentage, no surprises.
Every transaction is handled by Rob Luecke, ShopProp's managing broker. Not a junior agent, not a team member. The managing broker. As cited in NPR, USA Today, and the New York Post.
