Search 'lowest real estate commission' and you'll find comparison sites, review aggregators, and content publishers. What you won't find — except ShopProp — is an actual brokerage that handles your transaction.
ShopProp charges buyers a flat $1,995 starting fee. Sellers start at $4,995 for full service. That's not a comparison article about low commissions — that IS the lowest commission, from a brokerage with 19 years and 4,000+ closings.

Comparison Sites vs Actual Representation
Here's what ranks above us:
- listwithclever.com — a lead generation company. They write about low commissions, then sell your info to agents.
- homelight.com — an agent matching platform. They don't set commissions.
- realestatewitch.com — a content publisher. They compare companies but represent no one.
- houzeo.com — a flat fee MLS listing for sellers. No buyer representation.
ShopProp is the only result that actually represents you at a guaranteed flat fee. Everyone else writes about low commissions. We charge them.
