When selling your home, you’ve probably encountered the traditional real estate model. Most agents work on a commission-based system, meaning they take a percentage of your home’s sale price as their fee. While this model has been the norm for decades, it often leaves sellers parting with thousands of dollars of their hard-earned equity.
At Carolina’s Choice Real Estate, we believe in doing things differently. Our fee-per-service model is designed to benefit sellers, helping them keep more of their equity while still receiving high-quality service. Let’s dive into how we’re saving sellers an average of $14,000 per home sale and why this approach works so well.
The Problem with Traditional Real Estate Commissions
In the Triangle area, 99% of real estate agents operate using the traditional commission model. This means sellers are charged a percentage—often around 5-6%—of their home’s sale price. While this might seem standard, consider the financial impact:
• For a home sold at $600,000, a 6% commission equals $36,000.
• That $36,000 is deducted from the seller’s equity—money that could have been used for a down payment on a new home, savings, or investments.
In the video above, David Wilson explains how traditional commissions can eat into a seller’s hard-earned equity. At Carolina’s Choice, we don’t believe that sellers should have to pay such a high cost for assistance with their home sale. That’s why we’ve introduced a better way: fee-per-service real estate.
How Fee-Per-Service Works
Our fee-per-service model is exactly what it sounds like—you pay a set fee for the specific services you need. This approach allows you to only pay for what’s essential to your home sale, without forking over a percentage of your home’s value.
Here’s why this is a game-changer:
1. Significant Savings
On average, our sellers save $14,000 per home sale compared to traditional commission models. That’s equity you keep in your pocket to put toward your future goals.
2. High-Quality Service
Choosing a fee-per-service model doesn’t mean sacrificing quality. At Carolina’s Choice, we provide expert guidance, professional marketing, and everything you need for a successful home sale—just without the hefty commission.
3. Transparency and Control
With fee-per-service, you know exactly what you’re paying for. This gives sellers more control over their home-selling process and eliminates unexpected costs.
Why Our Model Works
So how are we able to offer such low fees without cutting corners? The answer lies in our business model.
At Carolina’s Choice Real Estate, we handle a high volume of listings each year. This allows us to maintain our lower fees while delivering exceptional service to each client. By focusing on efficiency and leveraging our expertise, we’re able to provide value that benefits both our sellers and our business.
In the video above, David Wilson explains how our high volume of listings enables us to keep costs low while offering a premium real estate experience. This combination of affordability and quality is what sets Carolina’s Choice apart from traditional agents.
