Who pays you then, I mean…Barry: We get paid from the real estate transaction as normal, at closing, by the seller just like all real estate agents. However being on a flat fee means that every one of our buyers within their respective price range only pays a flat fee not a percentage of the price. So our buyers always save money because of that commission policy and that money is given directly back to the buyer. Interviewer: So if for instance the commission was higher on a typical transaction you would still get that base…Barry: The buyer would get a rebate of a bigger base…Interviewer: Oh! He will get a rebate. Barry: Let’s say, sellers and seller agents offer, offer a $1000 bonus. The state contract gives that bonus to the seller’s real estate company.
