The Sunshine Coast real estate market is growing faster than ever before, property prices are skyrocketing, and homes are selling faster than ever before, but agents are still charging 2.75% – 3% plus GST! Here at Fixed Price Realty, we continue to charge a simple, fixed fee. Saving you money, worries and guaranteeing you everything and more a boutique real estate agency can offer.

Here are some of the points that set fixed free agents above the rest:
[symple_spacing size=”20″]
– With a fixed fee agent, you know up front what the cost of selling your home will be. Giving  you peace of mind and making it easier to negotiate.
[symple_spacing size=”20″]
– If the fixed fee is lower than what the commission would be, a sale can be more easily negotiated because a lower price can be accepted due to the commission saved.
[symple_spacing size=”20″]
– An all-inclusive fixed fee means, there are no surprises like hidden or undisclosed costs. Commission agents often charge additional marketing fees on top of their commission.
[symple_spacing size=”20″]
– All professions charge fees rather than commission – by charging a fixed fee, fixed fee real estate agents are aligning themselves with other professions.
[symple_spacing size=”20″]
– A case can be made that the amount of work required to sell a more expensive property is not proportional to the amount of commissioned earned and at some point, the commission earned is unjustified.
[symple_spacing size=”20″]
– Commission charging agents are often loath to negotiate their commission rates especially when they work for larger real estate agencies.
[symple_spacing size=”30″]
There are also some common misconceptions about Fixed Fee agencies:
[symple_spacing size=”20″]
– Often fixed fee agents are belittled by statements like, “cheap and nasty” or “you get what you pay for”. Sadly, this is as a result of a large, fixed fee real estate agent called Purple Bricks which charged low fixed fees but did not deliver a quality service and finally went out of business. New fixed fee agents have learnt from this and now offer quality service and generally at a lower fee but not necessarily “cheap”.
[symple_spacing size=”20″]
– Commission charging agents and some sellers often say that fixed fee agents are not motivated to get a higher price for the seller because they will not earn more from the sale if the property sells for a higher price. This can be disproven by simply stating that when an agent ensures a higher sales price, the difference this makes in their commission at 3.6% is not significant enough to be a motivation regardless.
