Real estate commissions are negotiable, but typically range from 5% to 6% of the sale price of a home. However, commissions have been steadily declining for decades, and the average in 2023 was 5.46%. In California, the average commission is 5.11%, which is lower than the national average.

Traditional fees
Brokerage cut
Traditionally, the brokerage dictates the fee an agent must charge their sellers or buyers. At closing, the brokerage takes a percentage of the commission the agent earns to pay for things like insurance, advertising and office space.
Since Robert Lilley Brokerage, is an independent broker, we can require less in commission fees to put money back into the pockets of our clients without sacraficing our excellent customer service, real estate knowledge, effective marketing, and local networking.
Negotiation process
Buyers can negotiate with sellers to pay their agent's commission. For example, a buyer might offer to pay more for a home if the seller pays the commission.
By offering a flat rate for every transaction, you know up front what your commission fees will be upon closing. No need for negotiation, no guessing, no stress.
Our real estate business model is a NEW KIND OF REAL ESTATE, empowering our agents to offer more to our clients while providing the best possible service plus they walk away with more equity in their pockets.
Real Estate is a financial investment, perhaps the largest investment you will make in your lifetime. Let us help you realize your financial goals and allow us to protect your investment.
