October 2026 Buyer Savings: Five Closings, $135K Kept by Clients

Five October 2026 closings across California and Washington where buyers kept $135,370 with ShopProp flat fee representation starting at $1,995.

October is shaping up to be one of ShopProp's strongest months. Here are five recent closings where buyers kept a combined $135,370 that would have gone to a traditional agent's commission.

Every one of these transactions was handled by Rob Luecke, ShopProp's managing broker with 19 years of experience and 4,000+ completed deals. Same broker. Same oversight. Fraction of the cost.

Why It Works

ShopProp charges a flat fee starting at $1,995 for buyers. The managing broker — Rob Luecke, with 19 years and 4,000+ transactions — is on every deal. Not a junior agent. Not a chatbot. The actual broker who reviews disclosures, negotiates repairs, and manages the closing.

Traditional agents charge 2.5% of the purchase price. On a $3.2M home, that is $81,375. ShopProp charged $7,995 for the same work. The $73,380 difference stayed in the buyer's pocket.
