Virginia Buyer Rebate: Northern Virginia to Richmond — Flat Fee Savings in Every Market

ShopProp just re-entered the Virginia buyer rebate rankings. Here's why our flat-fee model beats percentage-based competitors from Alexandria to Richmond.

Virginia is one of the most competitive buyer rebate markets in the country. FlatFeeGroup, GoToFSBO, MyRebateAgent, and GlassHouse RE all fight for the same buyers. But most of them charge percentage-based fees that scale with your home price. ShopProp charges a flat fee starting at $1,995 — period.

Flat Fee vs Percentage: Why It Matters Post-NAR

The 2024 NAR settlement means Virginia buyers now choose and pay their own agent. FlatFeeGroup advertises a "2% cash back" rebate — but 2% of what? On a $650,000 NOVA home, that's $13,000 back. Sounds good until you realize they're still charging you the full commission first, then rebating part of it.

ShopProp's model is simpler: flat fee of $1,995-$7,995 depending on price. No percentage math. No wondering how much you'll actually get back. You know the number before you make an offer.
