Traditional commission on a Canadian home at CREA’s July 2026 average of $674,819, priced at the standard 3.5%/1.5% Canadian commission structure, comes to $12,122. Across 377 completed consumer transactions on Bōde, sellers averaged $4,520 in commission paid. The math is straightforward.
377 consumer sales, Aug 2021 to Aug 2026:
CREA average Canadian home price (July 2026): $674,819
Traditional commission (3.5% on first $100k plus 1.5% on remainder): $12,122
Bōde average commission per sale: $4,520
Saving: $12,122 minus $4,520 = $7,621 (62.9%)
When a homeowner sells their current property and buys their next one through Bōde, the total commission saving compounds. This is the full calculation at Canada’s average home price of $674,819 (CREA, July 2026), using the standard 3.5%/1.5% Canadian commission structure on both transactions.
Traditional model
Sell side (3.5%/1.5%): $12,122
