Who is this rebate program for?

This program is for first responders, nurses and doctors, active or retired military, and teachers. Mention your service category in your inquiry and confirm eligibility and rebate terms with our team.

How does the 50% rebate work?

The rebate is based on the buyer-agent commission we receive, not your purchase price. The brokerage retains at least $6,500, so the rebate is reduced where needed to preserve that minimum.

Can you show me an example?

On $20,000 in commission, the rebate is $10,000. On $10,000 in commission, the rebate is $3,500 and the brokerage retains $6,500. These are illustrations subject to agreement and closing requirements.

What if commission is below $6,500?

No rebate is illustrated in that case. Discuss the minimum fee and how any shortfall is handled before signing your buyer representation agreement. These examples do not determine what you personally owe.

Is the rebate guaranteed?

No. The actual amount depends on commission received, your written agreement, and lender and closing requirements. Confirm the permitted use with your lender and closing professionals.

What do I need before touring homes?

Lender preapproval and a signed buyer’s agent agreement are required before we show you homes. Contact the team to complete these steps before booking a showing.

How do I get started?

Submit the contact form with your preferred area, buying timeline, and questions. The team can explain the buyer representation services, rebate, and minimum fee.
