What Sellers Always Ask Me
The most common question I get from sellers is:
“What’s taking so long to sell?”
The answer is in these numbers — with an 86-day average to contract and some homes sitting 200+ days, it’s pricing and preparation, not commission.
The data shows homes sell in 0 days or 208 days depending on price and prep — not commission. Paying 5% (3% listing + 2% buyer) doesn’t speed things up. Uber Realty’s 1% listing + 2% buyer structure keeps sellers in control and saves thousands without sacrificing exposure.
Example Math
Typical 5% on a $500,000 home = $25,000
Uber Realty 1% + 2% buyer = $15,000
