ShopProp recently entered the Virginia buyer rebate search results — and for good reason. Virginia buyers are paying some of the highest agent commissions in the country (2.5-3%), and our flat $1,995 fee is the most aggressive savings structure available.
Virginia Buyer Rebate: How the Math Works
In Virginia, the median home price varies dramatically by region. Here's what ShopProp's flat fee means for buyers in each metro:
| Virginia Metro | Median Price | Traditional 2.5% | ShopProp Fee | You Save |

| Northern Virginia (NoVA) | $650,000 | $16,250 | $3,995 | $12,255 |
| Arlington/Alexandria | $800,000 | $20,000 | $3,995 | $16,005 |
| Richmond | $375,000 | $9,375 | $1,995 | $7,380 |

Our Virginia Track Record
ShopProp has completed transactions in Virginia including a $2,295,000 Alexandria closing and a $394,820 Glen Allen purchase. These aren't theoretical savings — they're real deals with real clients who paid our flat fee instead of a percentage commission.
The Managing Broker Advantage
Most "rebate" programs work like this: you hire a regular agent at full commission, and they give you back a portion. You're still paying for a regular agent — just getting a kickback.
ShopProp is different. Your flat fee gets you managing broker Rob Luecke — 19 years of experience, 4,000+ transactions, and direct involvement in disclosure review, negotiation, and contract strategy. This isn't a rebate on full-price service. It's a fundamentally lower-cost model.
The NAR Settlement and Virginia Buyers
Since the August 2024 NAR settlement, Virginia buyers negotiate their agent's fee directly through buyer-broker agreements. Traditional agents still default to 2.5-3%. ShopProp's $1,995 gives Virginia buyers a clear, competitive alternative — and the savings go directly toward your down payment or closing costs.
