A Redfin agent offers clients three key advantages over traditional service:
- Experience: a Redfin agent does deals every week. He knows your market, and he can hold out for the best price.
- Online marketing: Redfin promotes your listing all over the Web so you get more showings. Our site reports on online traffic to your listing in real time.
- Low fees: a Redfin agent spends his time selling your house, not his service. You save thousands in commissions and get great service.

In outlying areas, Redfin gives you of a choice of partner agents to work with rather than one of our own agents. Redfin will always be clear at every step who will be serving you. A partner agent will design a custom service to meet your needs, crediting 15% of the typical commission charged in your market. Usually, the credit is $1,000 - $2,000 in fees.
