Sacramento home buyers can save thousands by working with a flat-fee buyer agent instead of a traditional agent who keeps the full commission. With Sacramento median home prices around $520,000, the math is compelling — ShopProp buyers typically save $11,000 or more at closing.
How Buyer Rebates Work in Sacramento
When you buy a home, the seller typically offers a commission to the buyers agent — usually 2.5% of the sale price. A traditional agent keeps that entire amount. With ShopProps flat-fee model, you pay just $1,995 and receive the rest as a rebate at closing.
On a $520,000 Sacramento home with a 2.5% buyer commission ($13,000):
- Traditional agent: Keeps $13,000. You get $0.
- Discount-Realtor.com: Percentage-based discount — you might save $3,000-$4,000. They still keep $9,000+.
- TurboHome: Flat fee model but charges $7,500 for homes in this range.
- ShopProp ($1,995 flat fee): You keep $11,005. That is $7,005 more than TurboHome.
