DON’T OVERPAY TO SELL YOUR HOME

We have entered a new era where sellers are no longer permitted to offer any commission to buyer’s agents in the MLS, which means that no commission details can be advertised on sites like Zillow or Redfin. Buyers also need to sign agreements with their agents outlining the commission they will pay their own agents before they show any properties. If a seller wants to offer additional compensation to the buyer’s agent, they can, but it is neither required nor encouraged.

While some listing agents will still try to contractually obligate sellers to pay 2% or more to the buyer’s agent, DeLeon Realty has taken a different approach. Our sellers benefit from our industry-leading home preparation, staging, and marketing services without obligating themselves to pay the buyer’s agent too. Additionally, if a buyer chooses not to pay a buyer’s agent, Ken DeLeon and his team will represent them on our listings at no cost to either the buyer or the seller.

Our client-centric business model and policies are just a few of the reasons why we are the leading listing team in all of Silicon Valley!
