The Redfin Advantage

Redfin doesn't just refund half its commission. We also perform better, too.

According to the Multiple Listing Services (MLSs) that brokers use to record deals, Redfin negotiates a bigger discount off list price than traditional brokers.

In 2007 – 2008, the average difference was $3,594. The average total savings, including the commission refund, was more than $10,000.

It's not a fluke. Redfin was better the previous year. Redfin was better across three different counties and two different markets.

Since the findings were based on thousands of transactions, the likelihood that our negotiating advantage was the result of chance was below 2%.

And it makes sense. We pay our agents a client satisfaction bonus, not a percentage of the final sale.

And we give you more pricing data, keeping you more involved in negotiations. Since you have more skin in the game, it's only natural that your involvement leads to a better result.
