Buyer Commission Rebate Program
Why buyer rebate? ​
​Thanks to Internet, home buyers now can search houses for sale through Internet, which in the past were solely accessible by real estate agents. Buyers now can do their own research and go to Open House. Agents' workload is tremendously reduced. Buyers deserve "commission" by saving Realtor's time and work!
As a realtor, I acknowledge buyer's efforts and reward buyer a cash-back rebate at closing from part of my commission.

Rebate qualification

  • Minimum purchase price $400,000
  • When you go to Open House, always disclose you have a buyer agent. If not, your rebate may be reduced or void due to other agent's claim on their share of commission for a procuring cause. ​
  • When there is no open house, let me arrange showing for you. The property you are interested can not be shown by any other agent including the listing agent. 
  • For new construction, I must be with you for the first visit.
  • Sign Buyer Rebate Agreement

The highest rebate ​

​To get the highest rebate,  you will need to visit open houses on you own till you are ready to make an offer. Meanwhile I can give you advices and help you to identify best options through phone or text. Once you find a home to buy, you can ask me write and present the offer for you. In this case,  my broker will keep 1.5% and you will get the rest of commission. In the best scenario, when seller offers 3% buyer agent commission, you may get as much as 1.5%.
​However, if you do not claim I am your buyer agent at open house, or you ask any other agent to show the property when there is no open house, your rebate may be less or void due to other party's claim on their share of commission.

​Most common rebate

​Most of time, buyer will need a realtor like me to help with searching and showing homes. For example, when you find a home you like but there is no Open House, I can make an appointment and bring you to see. ​​In this case , my broker will keep minimum 2% and you will get the rest of commission. 
Very Important!  When there is no Open House, do not contact the listing agent or any other agent to see the house. Let me make the appointment.

Will Rebate affect Realtor's service? ​

​No, except in house search process to some extent. It is buyer's choice to what extent they want to do, which determines how much rebate the buyer gets.  Realtor service is intact, ​from offering to closing. I will write and present the offer, handle all the negotiations, arrange for attorney review, schedule inspections, help with mortgage, inspection, appraisal, and all work necessary through the day of closing.

Pay for clients' share of work !   I think it is fair. - Alex Bao
