There are no catches or fine print. Our agents end up keeping much more of the commission that they generate than with a traditional brokerage.

Here is an example of a $10,000 gross commission:

$10,000 Gross Commission

-$695 to Sale Pros Realty

-$250 Transaction Coordinator Fee (may also be passed on to buyer or seller)

=$9,055 Payment to Agent And, as a result of having a transaction coordinator, our agents can focus more of them time on generating new business instead of being bogged down with paperwork.

Yes, all of our agents are required to use one of our in-house transaction coordinators. Our transaction coordinators are well versed in our exact paperwork requirements and make sure that all files are in compliance. The transaction coordinator fee may also be passed along to the buyer or seller in many circumstances. Having a transaction coordinator help with your file will ultimately allow you to focus on generating additional business. In addition, you will not be charged the transaction coordinator fee if the sale does not close.

Sale Pros Realty does not charge an additional per transaction E&O Fee. The $695 Fee that is charged includes E&O insurance. Sale Pros Realty is insured up to $1,000,000 per occurrence.

Sale Pros Realty does not charge a monthly fee. Our agents are only charged on a completed transaction basis.

Sale Pros Realty only receives a fee when a transaction is completed

Sale Pros Realty allows our agents to choose who they would like to use for escrow and title. We do not own our own escrow company or try to direct business to any particular escrow or title company. We realize that many of our agents have built long term relationships with many of their service providers and we feel that they should have the ability to choose who they would like to work with.

No. We do not require our agents to join any of these realtor associations. However, in most cases, it is necessary in order to conduct your real estate business.

So, although membership in these associations is not mandatory, it is highly recommended in most cases.

We only allow our agents to complete BPO’s if they are tied to listing assignments. BPO’s as a source of income by themselves are not permitted due to the fact that they raise our E&O insurance premiums considerably. In order to maintain our low flat fee of $695, we are not able to allow this.
