When we founded ShopProp in 2007, the idea was simple: full-service real estate representation shouldn't cost a percentage of your home's value. A managing broker's expertise doesn't become more valuable just because your home costs more.
Today, our buyer fee starts at $1,995 — the lowest flat fee in the real estate industry. Not 2.5%. Not 3%. A flat $1,995, regardless of whether you're buying a $400,000 starter home or a $10 million estate.
The Math That Changes Everything
On a $1,000,000 home with a traditional 2.5% buyer agent commission, your agent keeps $25,000. With ShopProp, we charge $1,995 and return $23,005 directly to you at closing.
On a $2,000,000 home? Traditional commission: $50,000. ShopProp fee: $4,995. You get $45,005 back.
Our largest single rebate? $247,000 on a $10.2 million home in Atherton, California. That client was so happy, they gave us a $1,000 bonus. NPR covered the story.
Managing Broker on Every Transaction
Here's what separates ShopProp from every discount brokerage and AI-first startup: every single transaction is overseen by a managing broker. Not a newly licensed agent. Not an algorithm. A human broker with decades of experience, a higher license, and legal authority to oversee your deal.
That's luxury representation at a transparent price — not cutting corners to save money.
How We Compare to Other Flat-Fee Brokerages
Not all flat-fee brokerages are created equal. Some charge $5,000 to $7,500 and call it "flat fee." Others use AI chatbots instead of experienced brokers. Here's where ShopProp stands:
| Home Price | Traditional 2.5% | ShopProp | You Save |
|---|---|---|---|
| $500,000 | $12,500 | $1,995 | $10,505 |
| $1,000,000 | $25,000 | $1,995 | $23,005 |
| $2,000,000 | $50,000 | $4,995 | $45,005 |
| $5,000,000 | $125,000 | $7,995 | $117,005 |
| $10,000,000 | $250,000 | $7,995 | $242,005 |
