A new look at how to save money when buying your new home from a builder. Learn about a “broker co-op” which is a sales commission offered to real estate agents by the home builders. See how a portion of this commission can be passed on to you.
An example of how much you can save from the resource: “The amount of money that a home buyer can save depends on the share of the real estate commission, which is negotiable with the agent, and the sales price of the home. For example, buying a new home with a sales price of $500,000, with a 1 1/2% share, would save the buyer $7,500.”
