Important: To protect your rebate, contact us before visiting a builder or speaking with a listing agent. Always let the builder know upfront that you’re working with an agent. Also, do not ask listing agents or agents from other brokerages to show you homes before connecting with us (unless it’s an open house), as that can affect your eligibility.
ARE REAL ESTATE REBATES LEGAL IN TEXAS?
Yes, 100% legal. Real estate rebates are allowed by the Texas Real Estate Commission, and buyers can receive a portion of their agent’s commission back at closing. It’s a simple program that most people still don’t know about, so you’re already ahead of the game by looking into it. You can learn more on our How It Works page.
HOW DOES THE 2.5% REBATE ON NEW CONSTRUCTION HOMES WORK?
Builders already budget a commission on every home for buyer agent representation. Instead of keeping most of that commission, we put it back to work for you and rebate 2.5% of the purchase price on new construction homes. You can use the rebate toward closing costs, a rate buydown, upgrades, or cash at closing. Learn more about our new construction rebate program. This rebate is in addition to builder and lender incentives.
Example: On a $500,000 new construction home, a 2.5% rebate equals $12,500 back to you.
HOW MUCH IS THE REBATE ON PRE-OWNED HOMES?
We offer up to a 2% rebate on pre-owned homes, depending on the purchase price. Even on resale homes, this can mean serious savings at closing. Learn more about our pre-owned home rebate program.
Example: On a $500,000 pre-owned home, a 2% rebate equals $10,000 back to you. That’s real money on a home you were already planning to buy.
WILL I STILL GET THE SAME PRICE AND INCENTIVES FROM THE BUILDER IF I USE YOU?
Yes, same price and same incentives. Builders don’t discount homes just because you go in without an agent. The commission is already built into their budget. If you don’t have an agent, the builder keeps it. When you work with us, the majority of that commission is redirected right back into your pocket where it belongs. You can also see exactly how the process works on our How It Works page.
IS THE REBATE GUARANTEED?
Yes. Before anything moves forward, your rebate amount is clearly outlined in writing so there are no surprises.
WILL I RECEIVE A 1099 FOR MY REBATE?
No. We do not issue a 1099 for your rebate. It is treated as a reduction in your purchase price, not taxable income. That means you keep the full benefit. As always, you can confirm with your tax professional for your specific situation.
WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO QUALIFY FOR THE REBATE?
This part is important. Be sure to contact us before visiting a builder or speaking with a listing agent. From there, just list us as your agent and we will take it from there. We handle the details, you keep more of your money.
WHY DO YOU OFFER SUCH A HIGH REBATE?
Today’s buyers are informed. You’ve already done the research, narrowed down communities, and often know exactly what you want before ever stepping into a model home. Because of that, we operate efficiently and pass a large portion of the commission back to you. It just makes sense.
