What is a Buyers Agent Commission? What should I offer?

Buyers agent commission is the amount (generally percentage) you are willing to pay a Chicago area real estate agent that brings you a qualified buyer. You determine this price and List It Chicago is more than happy to help you in this determination. In our experience buyers agent commissions generally range between 2-3% of the selling price. Offering less than 2% may make your home not as appealing to Buyers agents who's source of income is through the commissions they earn helping people buy and sell real estate.
