Why Pay More?
A common commission in Ottawa is 5% (commission rates vary in the marketplace). At this rate, if your home sells for $300,000, you are paying $15,000 in commission. At $400,000, you are paying $20,000 in commission, and so on. Today, a buyer can find their dream home and area before they even call an agent. Buyers have access to MLS® and technology such as virtual tours, and search www.realtor.ca themselves. In this Internet-driven, consumer-savvy marketplace, the concept of One Percent Realty makes sense and the proof is in the results - the company is flourishing, and more and more clients are saving their money.
Your property will attract a buyer if priced realistically and competitively. Paying thousands more in commission is not what will sell your property. It will sell with the exposure required to attract the right buyer for your home.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Q. What Do You Charge?
A.
First, you only pay if your home sells. For homes listed under $700,000 we charge a flat rate of $7,950 plus HST ($3,500 to listing agent, $3,500 to buyer agent, $950 expense fee at closing). Homes over $700,000 are 1% + $950 (expense fee at closing)
Q. Are Your Listings on MLS® and www.realtor.ca?
A. Yes and yes.
Q. How Does an Agent for the Buyer Get Paid? Do I Have to Pay Them?
A. The $7,950 commission includes $3,500 commission to your agent (the Listing Agent), $3,500 of commission to the Buyer's representative, and the remaining $950 pays for the expenses incurred in selling your home.
Q. Are There Any Upfront Fees to List Your Home with 1%?
A. No.
Q. Will Other Agents Show One Percent Listings?
A. Easily the most frequently asked question...Why would an agent show his/her client a One Percent listing when that agent can show a different listing and possibly earn more? There are several reasons why: (1) First and foremost, agents have an ethical duty to show all listings, regardless of commission, unless they are authorized by their client to do otherwise; (2) Agents still earn a commission; (3) Buyers can easily find One Percent listings on a number of websites including http://www.REALTOR.ca or http://www.onepercentrealty.com. The proof is in the results: most of our homes in Ontario are sold by Cooperating agents.
Q. What is the difference between One Percent Realty and other brokerages?
A. One Percent Realty Ltd. is a FULL SERVICE low commission Real Estate Brokerage.
We believe that consumers want the assistance of a Professional Agent and a Listing on their local MLS® Real Estate Board but at a great low commission rate. Your property will attract a buyer if priced realistically. Paying thousands more in commission is not what will sell your property, it will sell because of the exposure we provide to attract the right buyer for your home.
Q. What Do You Mean By "Full Real Estate Services"?
A. Full Real Estate Services includes listing your property on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS®) of our Board, http://www.REALTOR.ca , http://www.onepercentrealty.com , taking photos, advertising your property, for sale sign, lockbox, showings, all documentation and contracts, negotiations, keeping you informed, cooperating with brokerages representing buyers, responding to inquiries - THE WORKS!
Q. What's The Best Way To Contact You?
