[Seller's Edition What is the 2024 Revision to the Residential Sales Property Regulations ? ] 🏠 🧐

As one of the changes to the regulations under the National Association of Realtors, the buyer's agent commission, which has generally been borne primarily by the seller based on custom and tradition, is now a matter of negotiation between the seller and the buyer after 8/17/2024. The following is an explanation of the options available to the seller and the background for negotiations:


🏠 🔑 Options for the buyer's agent commission:
- 50/50 < ・ Both parties pay a percentage of the commission, full amount, negotiate according to the terms of the offer, no commission, or offer a credit to the buyer to cover closing costs as a separate line item
*Options include percentage of the sale price, fixed amount, etc.

🔎 <1067> Negotiation context:
- If there is no buyer's agent commission in the sale plan, it is expected that the buyer will include in the offer terms a request for a credit that the buyer can use to cover its closing costs.
- If no commission is set, the buyer may add it to the negotiated terms in the offer, which may ultimately make the seller's cost more expensive
- If no commission is set, the seller may have to deal with more unrepresented buyers
- In the case of unrepresented buyers, the transaction may be more expensive than the final closing costs. (example from another state: 75% for buyers with agent vs. 12% for buyers without agent)
- If not set, may result in fewer offers and other general reduction in opportunities
- Notwithstanding the above, if not set, the chances of a transaction being delivered are dependent on the terms of the offer.


Various factors including the above should be considered on a case-by-case basis. Whether you are a seller or a buyer, it would be helpful to have an overall picture of the options available to both parties based on the revisions. \Please feel free to contact us for more information.
