Buyer Advantage

Expert Representation.
Half of My Commission to You.

I represent you through the whole purchase in New York and New Jersey, and I share 50% of the commission I receive with you at closing. On a resale where the buyer-broker commission is 3%, half is 1.5%. Your share always follows the commission actually paid on your transaction.

One Rule, Applied to Every Purchase

You receive full buyer representation: property search and evaluation, pricing and comparable analysis, offer strategy, negotiation, due diligence, attorney and lender coordination, and transaction management through closing. The Buyer Commission Share is what that same work returns to you. I share half of the commission I receive, so the percentage depends on the compensation actually offered and received on your purchase.

Receive Your Commission Share

I share half the commission I actually receive on your purchase with you at closing. A higher commission means a larger Buyer Commission Share, which is why the figure follows the transaction rather than a fixed rate.

Private Guidance · Full Representation · 50% of the Commission I Receive

These figures are estimates. The buyer-broker commission is offered by the seller or the sponsor, so your share depends on what is actually offered and received on your transaction, along with your buyer agreement, lender requirements, and closing conditions. New development sponsors sometimes offer higher buyer-broker compensation, so the same 50% rule can produce a larger Buyer Commission Share.

Purchase Price$5,000,000
$500,000$15,000,000

This is the commission paid to me as your buyer’s broker, not the amount you receive. Examples only: 3% is common on a resale, and 5% is the kind of figure a new development sponsor may offer.

Commission I Would Receive$150,000
Effective Cost After Your Commission Share$4,925,000
Estimated Buyer Commission Share$75,000

Based on a 3% buyer-broker commission, of which your share is 1.5% of the purchase price. Full-service representation is included.

Review your estimated Buyer Commission Share with Régis before you tour or submit an offer.

Full-Service Representation. Transparent Commission Sharing.

Sharing half my commission does not mean half the service. You receive private, independent representation across the entire transaction: property search and evaluation, pricing and comparable analysis, offer strategy and negotiation, due diligence, sponsor negotiation on new development, board-package guidance where a co-op is involved, attorney and lender coordination, and transaction management through closing.

Full-service representation comes first. Sharing half my commission with you is an additional benefit, not a trade against the level of service.

What May Affect Your Buyer Commission Share

Property Type

Different property types carry different commission structures. New development sponsors frequently offer higher buyer-broker compensation than a resale seller, which produces a larger Buyer Commission Share under the same 50% rule.

Commission Structure

Your share is half of the buyer-side commission actually offered, negotiated, and received on the transaction. A higher commission produces a larger share.

Buyer Agreement

Representation and compensation terms should be clearly outlined before touring or submitting offers.

Lender & Closing Requirements

Some closing credit structures may require lender approval, specific closing documentation, and applicable regulations.

Transaction Terms

Seller terms, sponsor incentives, concessions, closing costs, and purchase structure may affect final eligibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers on how the 50% commission share works, what affects the amount, and what full representation includes.

Full buyer representation with one commitment attached: I share 50% of the commission I receive on your purchase with you at closing. You get the complete service, and half of what the transaction pays me.

Always half of the buyer-broker commission actually received on your purchase. If the commission is 3%, your share is 1.5%. If a sponsor pays 5%, your share is 2.5%. If a sponsor pays 4%, your share is 2%. The percentage follows the commission, so it is confirmed once the compensation on your transaction is known.

No. Sharing half my commission does not reduce the service. You receive private buyer representation, property search and evaluation, pricing and comparable analysis, offer strategy, negotiation, due diligence, closing-cost review, attorney and lender coordination, and transaction management through closing.

Condos, co-ops, townhouses, resales, and new developments. What varies is the commission structure and the closing terms, and the commission is what sets the size of your share.

Yes, and it often matters more there. Sponsors frequently offer higher buyer-broker compensation than a resale seller, and the same 50% rule applies to it. On a $3,000,000 purchase where the sponsor pays a 5% buyer-broker commission, the Buyer Commission Share would be $75,000. That is an example based on a 5% commission, not a fixed rate. Sponsor sales also carry their own contract terms and closing costs, which should be reviewed before you register at any sales gallery.

Yes. It is disclosed and handled according to the transaction terms, closing requirements, lender approval when applicable, and applicable regulations.

Yes. New York law allows a broker to offer part of a commission or compensation to a buyer, seller, landlord, or tenant who is a party to the transaction, provided it is not payment for licensed activity by that party. New Jersey law also permits licensed real estate brokers to return a portion of the commission the broker receives to a purchaser of residential real property, subject to specific conditions.
