What does redfin charge to sell a house

The Redfin listing fee is subject to a minimum based on the market and does not include a buyer's agent commission, which is typically paid by the seller. In these new markets, the 1 percent listing fee applies to customers who both buy and sell with Redfin within a 360 day period. For customers who sell with a Redfin agent, but do not buy, Redfin will continue to charge a 1.5 percent listing fee, already a substantial savings. For customers who sell first, Redfin will charge a 1.5 percent listing fee upon the sale, then refund the half percent to the customer when they close on their home purchase, in addition to the Redfin buyer refund. Other one percent listing fee eligibility terms apply for clients that first sell and then buy.

"In Philadelphia, Delaware, South Florida and Wisconsin, we are rewarding our most loyal customers: those who buy and sell with Redfin," said Krupsaw. "When a customer comes to Redfin, we want to help them with their entire move, whether it's across town or across the country. Customers appreciate working with one brokerage to ensure their move, and the often tricky timing involved, is well coordinated."

Redfin's Philadelphia market includes the city and its surrounding suburbs in Pennsylvania and Delaware; it does not include southern New Jersey. In South Florida, Redfin serves the metro areas of Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach. In Wisconsin, Redfin serves the Madison and Milwaukee metro areas.

Redfin already charges a 1 percent listing fee in many of the largest U.S. metro areas. A complete list of Redfin markets that offer a 1 percent listing fee is available here. In all other markets, Redfin continues to charge a 1.5 percent listing fee.

At a 1 or 1.5 percent listing fee, all sellers work with a dedicated, local Redfin agent who provides full service at every step of the process. Redfin publishes comprehensive information about each of its agents, including homes they have sold, areas of expertise and customer reviews, so sellers can choose an agent who has the local knowledge and experience that meets their needs.

Redfin's full-service, tech-powered listing program includes:

  • An experienced listing agent accountable to deliver the best results because Redfin surveys their clients and pays agents in part based on customer satisfaction.
  • A team of support staff who make the process run smoothly.
  • Professional photography as well as professionally-designed and beautifully-produced print brochures.
  • A Redfin 3D Walkthrough tour, letting buyers virtually walk through the home from room to room.
  • Online marketing with premium placement on Redfin.com, the U.S.'s most-visited brokerage website.
  • Email and digital advertising campaigns to reach the right buyers.
  • A personalized Redfin Home Dashboard, so sellers can see exactly what is happening with their home sale at each stage and stay informed about everything Redfin is doing to market their home - all in one place.
  • Pre-marketing of listings, where permitted by local rules, to build anticipation for the property, including tools for gathering feedback on the number of interested buyers and what price they would pay for the property.
  • A thorough pricing analysis, which combines Redfin's proprietary algorithms for estimating the value of a home and the expertise of a local Redfin agent.
  • Open houses, hosted by a Redfin agent, with visitors registered by our own iPad application for immediate follow-up.

The lowered listing fee in Philadelphia, Delaware, South Florida and Wisconsin is being offset by a small reduction of the Redfin refund for buyers in these markets. Buyers can continue to see the amount of the refund offered by Redfin on every home listing page.
