Search for the lowest real estate commission and you will find a wall of comparison websites — Clever, HomeLight, RealEstateWitch, Houzeo, FastExpert. They rank agents and brokerages. They do not actually sell homes. ShopProp is the only actual brokerage in that search result, and we charge less than any of them recommend.
Here is what the real numbers look like when a brokerage handles your transaction at a flat fee instead of a percentage commission.

Why Comparison Sites Cannot Beat a Flat Fee
Clever charges 1.5% for sellers and connects buyers to agents who charge the standard 2-3%. HomeLight matches you with agents at typical commission rates. Houzeo charges $399 for MLS access but no representation. None of them offer a flat fee with full managing broker service.
ShopProp charges $1,995 for buyers and from $4,995 for sellers — with a managing broker on every deal. On a $500,000 home, a 2.5% commission is $12,500. ShopProp saves you $10,505. On a $1,000,000 home, savings jump to $17,005.
The Brokerage Difference
- Managing broker Rob Luecke personally oversees every transaction
- 4,000+ completed deals across 9 states since 2007
- Full service — disclosures, negotiations, inspections, closing
- Flat fee does not increase with home price
