The 1–2–4 formula
Why sign a firm brokerage contract when three scenarios are possible?
The commission depends on how the buyer is found. Here is the principle behind the 1–2–4 formula, to be discussed and confirmed in any brokerage agreement.
The listing broker finds the buyer
The broker responsible for the listing finds the buyer: the planned commission is 2%. (Plus applicable taxes)
Another broker finds the buyer
A cooperating broker brings the buyer: the planned commission is 4%. (Plus applicable taxes)
A different conversation
Transparency is not an extra.
Selling a property deserves more than a percentage announced without context. A tiered formula allows you to discuss the work, the strategy, and the value with greater precision.
"The right question isn't only how much. It's also why, when, and what for."
