How Much Are the Realtor Fees for Buyers

Typically, the realtor fee for buyers is $0. In a selling real estate transaction, the seller pays for all realtor fees unless it's indicated differently by the seller or the buyer. Buyers usually think that by not using a real estate agent, the seller will not have the expense and will save the buyer's realtor fee, but that's not true. Every MLS listing has an assigned percentage of the sale for realtors. If one, two, or four realtors are involved, the fee remains the same for the seller and is divided by the total number of realtors involved.

What MLS Listings for Sale Are

MLS listings for sale are properties published by licensed realtors for other realtors to see and show to their clients through the MLS database. An MLS listing for sale has four statuses: active, pending, under contract, and back to the market. At least 92% of selling transactions in Florida occur via the MLS, and it's the largest database of properties for sale.

What an MLS Search Is
