THINGS YOU'LL NEVER HEAR A HOME BUYER SAY:
"I wish the homeowner would have used a more expensive real estate brokerage to sell me this home."
"I really fell in love with the extra $15,000 I paid because the seller used a traditional real estate brokerage."
"I hope when I sell this home I can overpay my agent."
"You know what this house needs? Higher commission fees baked into the price."
"I'm so glad the seller chose the agent with the highest fees—it really adds value to my purchase."
"Nothing says 'dream home' like knowing I paid thousands extra for unnecessary overhead."
"I love when agents take a bigger cut—it makes me feel like I got a better deal."
Here's what they DO say:
"I wish I could find a home where the seller kept more money in their pocket instead of paying it to their agent—because that means a better deal for me."
The brutal truth about real estate: Every dollar in commission fees comes from somewhere. And that somewhere is YOU—the buyer's final price.
Smart sellers are done subsidizing outdated business models. Smart buyers benefit when sellers keep more of their equity.
Uber Realty: Where sellers save thousands. Where buyers pay less. Because the only thing worse than overpaying for a house is overpaying for the privilege of buying an overpriced house.

P.S. Traditional brokerages will tell you "you get what you pay for." They're right. You get a house. For way more than you should pay.
Q1: Do real estate commissions affect home prices?
Yes. Commission fees are baked into the home’s listing price, meaning buyers indirectly pay for seller-side fees.
Q2: Why are traditional brokerages more expensive?
Traditional brokerages often charge higher commission rates to support outdated overhead like office space, franchise fees, and big-brand marketing.
Q3: Will using a lower-commission brokerage affect my home’s sale price?
No. In fact, sellers who use efficient brokerages often retain more of their equity while still pricing competitively for buyers.
Q4: How can buyers benefit from lower seller commissions?
Lower seller-side commissions can reduce the overall listing price, helping buyers pay less while still securing great properties.
