Q: If my HomeWise REALTOR® collects the $2,900 "Flat Fee" for selling my home, are there any other "Hidden" fees or charges?

A: Absolutely Not. As a matter of fact, the $2,900 "Flat Fee" is paid at closing. HomeWise REALTORS® does not make a penny until your home is SOLD!


Q: How much commission is paid if another REALTOR® other than the one that has my home listed shows and "sells" my home?

A: If another REALTOR® presents an acceptable offer for the purchase of your home, and you accept it, then 4.9% of the sales price is paid as commission. The commission would be split up as follows: Your listing agent would receive 1.9% (in lieu of the flat fee) while the other REALTOR® received 3.0% making a total of 4.9%


Q: What if my listing agent brings me a lower offer than another agent, but because of the huge savings of paying a flat fee it actually saves me money to accept my listing agents offer? Am I obligated to accept the highest offer even if I net more by excepting the lower offer?

A: By law, you are not "required" to accept any offer regardless of how good or bad it is. You are always in complete control.


Q: Do all HomeWise REALTORS® charge a flat fee of $2,900

A: All HomeWise REALTORS® are required to charge "Flat Fees" but the amount of that fee is up to each individual REALTOR® (with Broker's permission). By law, all real estate commissions are negotiable. Call your local HomeWise REALTORS® office today. What have you got to lose, but thousands of hard earned dollars?
