For sellers: Antonio and Compass charge a listing commission of 5% to 6% of the sale price, set in the listing agreement. Half of that commission is offered to the agent who brings the buyer. This gives agents across the market a strong reason to show the property to their clients. For example, on a $3,000,000 sale at 5%, the total commission is $150,000, and $75,000 of it goes to the buyer's agent. Sellers also get Antonio's creative, out-of-the-box marketing and seasoned negotiating skills, which past clients single out as a major asset in selling their homes.
