Wade Kovacic • Local Sales Representative
Let me show you what a 1% listing commission* really means.
The "Listing Agent" appraises the home, assesses it against similar neighbourhood sales and sets a market price.
The selling price is adjustable and can be raised or lowered.
5% of the final sale price will be divided by the "Listing" & "Buying" agents.
This couple is selling their Toronto home and have hired a "Listing Agent" to help them with everything involved.
"Listing Agents" represent the home sellers and take care of legal things, listings, home showings and negotiate to sell the home for the highest price.
"Listing Agents" traditionally receive 2.5% of a home's final sale price.
"Buying Agents" represent the home buyers and take care of legal things, finding homes to view and negotiate to buy the home for the lowest possible price.
"Buying Agents" traditionally receive 2.5% of a home's final sale price.
This couple wants to buy a house in Toronto and have hired a "Buying Agent" to help them with everything.
Both agents - the "Listing" and "Buying" agents - work independently of one another and the "Buying Agent" still receives 2.5% of the final selling price.
If you hire Wade as your "Listing Agent", his listing fee will be reduced to just 1%* (instead of 2.5%).
And this is where you save 1.5%.
In the above example (using the $900,000 Toronto home), this would save the home sellers $13,500.00 in listing fees.
This is how it will work with Wade involved:
The "Listing Agent" appraises the home, assesses it against similar neighbourhood sales and sets a market price.

Just because you pay less in commission fees* doesn’t mean you’ll receive inferior services:
Why Pay More In Listing Agent Fees If You Don’t Have To*?
* My 1% fee & savings are based on a hypothetical example of a 5% total commission (2.5% listing + 2.5% to buyer brokerage) . 1% Listing fee plus 2.5% buyer brokerage fee = 3.5% maximum commission.
