No, there are no hidden costs! When you buy, sell or use a partner to split your home through our program, the partner companies either split their commission with us or pay us a fee at closing. This commission split is a common practice in the real estate industry and is used to increase business for the brokers and real estate partners.

Indeed, while many of our services are complimentary, we do have certain offerings that come with a fee to best serve your specific needs:

Why do appraisals, AVMs, and CMAs have different values?

• Appraisals reflect current or past values, relying on recent comparable sales.
• AVMs (Automated Valuation Models) use algorithms and diverse datasets for valuations. They’re typically computer-driven and can be viewed as directionally accurate.
• CMAs (Comparative Market Analysis) are created by real estate professionals, suggesting a listing price based on local market conditions and your home's unique features.

All are valuable, but none as accurate as an actual sale. Lenders typically rely on appraisals or AVMs more than CMAs, especially as AVM accuracy continues to improve.
