BUYER AGENTS

Family Building Company is proud to partner with buyer representatives. Simple and clear:

  • We offer Buyer Agents a 2.5% commission on the contract price for ALL home sales where Family Building Co is the seller. (See: AVAILABLE HOMES)
     

  • We do NOT offer compensation to Seller subagents.
     

  • Our Buyer Agent compensation is Seller-paid, not a cooperative compensation from the Listing Firm.
     

  • At-cost add-ons (increasing purchase price to finance closing costs, appliances, fences, etc as part of our First-Time Homebuyers Program) do not pay extra commissions to the agent. 

    Ex. On a $250K home, the buyer adds a $2,000 fridge making it a $252K home - commission is paid on the $250K sale amount.
     

  • On off-market Build-For-Hire transactions, where a land owner hires us to build a home on their property, we offer a flat Buyer Agent commission of $5,000 per unit. See AGENTS/INVESTORS for more details.
     

  • Our offer of compensation is without regard to the compensation that a buyer and their agent have negotiated.
     

    • Buyer agents who charge more than our offered commission may collect the balance owed from their client.

    • Buyer agents who charge less than our offered commission may rebate excess the commission to their client or seek permission to accept an increased commission.
       

  • Please be aware that our listings carry a variable commission rate. When we sell a home to an unrepresented buyer, the Listing Agent receives an extra 1% commission for their extra effort instead of a 2.5% Buyer Agent commission.
