When we launched our service in 2006, Redfin was controversial. Now, things have settled down. We're still a consumer advocate, but also a major source of business for other brokerages.
Other agents may initially pull out all the stops to persuade you to use their own services. But once you list with Redfin, any agent with a potential buyer will focus on getting a deal done.
We know most of the agents in town, especially since most of us come from traditional brokerages. Every day, we work on personal relationships to get deals done.
Since we recommend that you pay a full fee to the agent representing the buyer, the agent is amply motivated to show and sell your listing.
