How much do real estate agents charge?

Real estate agent commissions typically range from 5-6% of the sale price, split between buyer and seller agents. Sellers usually pay the commission, which is deducted from sale proceeds. Some agents offer reduced commission structures or flat fees. When buying, agent services are typically free to you as the buyer.

What is the difference between a realtor and a real estate agent?

All realtors are real estate agents, but not all agents are realtors. A realtor is a licensed agent who is also a member of the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and adheres to their code of ethics. Both can help you buy or sell property, but realtors have additional professional standards and resources.

Do I need a real estate agent to buy a home?

While not legally required, working with a buyer's agent is highly recommended. Agents provide market expertise, handle negotiations, coordinate inspections and appraisals, and guide you through complex paperwork. Since sellers typically pay buyer agent commissions, professional representation is essentially free for buyers.

How do I choose the right real estate agent?

Look for agents with experience in your target area and property type. Review their recent sales history, client testimonials, and marketing approach. Interview multiple agents to assess communication style and availability. Ask about their negotiation strategy and how they handle challenges.

What should I expect when selling my home with an agent?

Your agent will provide a comparative market analysis (CMA) to price your home, create marketing materials, list on MLS, coordinate showings, negotiate offers, and guide you through closing. Expect regular communication about market feedback and buyer interest. A good agent keeps you informed at every stage.
