Why ShopProp Beats Percentage-Based TX Rebate Companies

Companies like texashomes2percentrebate.com offer a percentage back — typically 2% of the commission. ShopProp charges a flat $1,995 starting fee and gives the rest back. On a $750,000 Texas home:

  • ShopProp: $1,995 flat fee, you keep ~$16,755
  • Traditional 2% rebate: Keeps most of commission, gives back ~$375
  • Traditional agent: Keeps entire $18,750

How Texas Buyer Rebates Work After the NAR Settlement

Since the 2024 NAR settlement, Texas buyers sign a buyer-broker agreement before touring homes. ShopProp's flat fee is lower than what most traditional agents charge. The difference between the seller's offered commission and ShopProp's flat fee comes back as a rebate at closing.
