Trusted Agent USA will match you with a top-performing local agent for free with no obligation.  If you don’t like the trusted agent you are matched with, you can request additional agent matches or walk away.  If you decide to go with one of the agents Trusted Agent USA recommends, you’ll benefit from the built-in cost savings Trusted Agent USA negotiates with every agent in their partner network:

• Sellers You pay as low as a 1.5% listing fee ($3,000 minimum) at closing, plus the typical buyer’s agent commission in your area, only if the trusted agent you are matched with does not procure the buyer.  If the Trusted Agent USA you are matched with also procures the buyer, your total listing fee will only be 1.5%. However, if another agent, other than the trusted agent you were matched with, procures the buyer, then customary buyer agent commissions, typically between 2-3%, will still apply.
• Buyers In eligible states, buyers will get rebates up to ½% of the sale price of the home you purchase with a Trusted Agent USA.  Buyers will also get a FREE 1-year home warranty for peace of mind with their purchase.
• Sell & Buy You will save thousands on both sides of the transaction when you sell and buy within the Trusted Agent USA Network.  Please inquire for more details.

Offering an attractive buyer's agent commission is crucial to selling your home quickly and at the best price. This motivates agents to showcase your property, knowing they will receive fair compensation for bringing in potential buyers. Conversely, you don't provide a competitive commission. In that case, agents may not be motivated to promote your property, and buyers may have to pay their agent's fee, which could hinder their interest in purchasing your home.

The good news is that the buyer's agent fee is usually factored into the listing price and deducted from your earnings at closing. This means you won't typically pay any commission fees out of pocket.
