Redfin Customers Saved an Average of $8,200 in Real Estate Fees in 2020<\/i>
\n<\/i>
\n<\/i><\/b><\/h4>\n

Redfin just passed a major milestone: we’ve now saved our customers more than $1 billion in real estate fees! Since 2006, we’ve been saving customers money by charging sellers a low listing fee<\/a> and giving homebuyers a commission refund when they purchase with a Redfin agent. Redfin agents have helped customers with more than 300,000 transactions worth more than $150 billion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We put the customer first by blending technology with local agents to deliver innovative service at a better value. Redfin invented map-based search, giving consumers more information about homes for sale. Then we hired our own agents to be advocates for customers in the transaction, as employees with salary, bonuses and benefits.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Redfin agents save customers money on fees while delivering better results. According to a <\/span>2020 analysis<\/span><\/a>, homes listed by Redfin agents sold five days faster and for $2,200 more, on average, than comparable homes listed by other brokerages. Redfin listings also had a higher chance of selling, with 91.5% of listings selling within 90 days, compared to 78.3% for other brokerages. Customers who work with a Redfin agent are more loyal. Redfin\u2019s homebuyers are 54% more likely to work with Redfin again when they sell that home compared to customers who bought with another brokerage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cReal estate technology companies have raised billions of dollars over the past few years, but Redfin is one of the few to have used that technology to give the person buying or selling a home a better deal,\u201d said Redfin CEO Glenn Kelman. \u201cWhat we\u2019re most proud of is that we saved customers money while paying our employees more: Redfin agents earn twice as much<\/a> as a typical agent, and Redfin has a higher rate of agent retention than traditional brokerages. What kept this company together through booms and busts has been the investments this company has made in our people.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Redfin sellers save thousands with a 1% listing fee when they sell and buy<\/h4>\n

Redfin charges a 1% listing fee when a customer sells and buys their next home with a Redfin agent, compared to the 2.5 to 3% listing fee that is typical of most brokerages. By listing with a Redfin agent, a seller of a $500,000 home would save approximately $10,000 on real estate fees. For customers who sell with Redfin without buying another home, Redfin charges a 1.5% listing fee, still significantly less than the typical fee.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Redfin buyers save $1,750 on average<\/h4>\n

When a customer buys a home with a Redfin agent, we give a portion of the commission we earns to the buyer in the form of a refund at closing. In states where the Redfin Refund is available, the average amount was $1,750 in 2020. The Redfin Refund amount is based on the home\u2019s asking price and can be seen on the right-hand side of a property listing on Redfin.com.<\/span><\/p>\n

Redfin is leading efforts to make real estate fees more transparent<\/h4>\n

Redfin is also leading efforts to make commission data more transparent. Redfin posts its listing fees and buyer refund amounts publicly, so customers know the amount and never have to haggle.\u00a0<\/span>Earlier this year, Redfin\u00a0<\/span>began publishing<\/span><\/a> the buyer\u2019s agent commission being offered for every listing on Redfin.com in more than 75 markets across the country.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How does Redfin calculate customer savings?<\/h4>\n

Redfin calculates seller savings by comparing the fees paid by Redfin customers to a 2.5% listing fee. Buyer savings are the sum of Redfin Refunds given to buyers.
