Traditional commission (average 4.09%)

Sale side (as seller):

  • $664,078 × 4.09% = $27,162 total commission paid.

Buy side (as buyer):

  • Buyer’s agent would typically be paid half (about 2.045%) by the seller of the new home.

  • $664,078 × 2.045% = $13,581 value of commission on purchase.

  • Even though technically the buyer doesn’t cut this cheque, it’s baked into the price. From a savings perspective, you count it.

Total traditional = $27,162 + $13,581 = $40,743

Bōde model (1% sell, Free to buy)

Sell side:

  • $664,078 × 1% = $6,641

Buy side:
