Bōde is a Mere Posting Provider as defined by the Canadian Real Estate Association offering tools and data to our customers to be self-represented. The Bōde marketplace is designed to ensure buyers, sellers, and agents all have a hassle-free high-value experience.
Bōde sellers determine if they are offering a commission to a buy-side agent - the vast majority of them do! For sellers that are not offering a buy-side commission, you are invited to make an offer that contemplates your costs. Bōde distributes funds at the conclusion of the transaction as per typical industry practice.
Buyer Brokerage Agreements, standard since 2018, outline how agents are paid in situations where the seller chooses not to offer commission. Your commissions would be distributed directly from the buyer as per typical industry practice.
Booking a showing and making an offer is simple and straightforward with Bōde. Sellers will favour showings and offers from agents using Bōde online features for organization and efficiency purposes. This will ultimately benefit all parties in the transaction. Upon agreement of terms, they are populated in the standard industry-standard contract for signature using DocuSign as usual.
As a licensed brokerage, Bōde abides by all the rules and regulations that apply to the real estate industry. We believe in giving homeowners options and understand that our unique model is not for every buyer or seller.
We are happy to help you if you have any questions about Bōde. Our broker is available to answer questions about any of our listings or how Bōde works with agents.
Bōde’s model unlocks opportunities to participate in the real estate value chain in new ways. We plan to provide automation of admin and logistics for agents. This will empower agents to offer more strategic value to more clients. We are currently working with a number of agents in this pursuit, let us know if you would like to participate!
