What is a Home Buyer Rebate/Cash Back?

Home buyer rebate/cash back is a rebate offered to the home buyer by a Realtor, from the commission obtained by the Realtor calculated on the purchase price of the home.

How a Home Buyer Rebate Program Works?

Usually the Realtor receives a 3% commission on the purchase price of the house from the seller. When the sale is completed, the 3 percent commission is disbursed to the Realtor by the Title Company. The Realtor can then offer the rebate to the buyer. The Realtor offers a cash back rebate to buyers who are savvy in their search and have a shortlist of houses they want to preview.

If the buyer is buying a home for the purchase price of $250,000, the usual 3% commission received by the Realtor calculated on the purchase price of the house is $7500. The Realtor can rebate a portion of the $7500 commission obtained from the seller. If the rebate is 2 percent on the $250,000 home, it would amount to $5,000.

The amount of rebate is based on the agreement between the buyer & the Realtor. The agreement to offer a rebate and the percentage of the commission given as a rebate is agreed upon by the buyer and the Realtor prior to they start the Buyer – Agent relationship.

Each Realtor has different conditions to rebate a portion of the commission obtained. You should check with the Realtor individually & confirm the terms directly with the Realtor. The terms have to be signed by both parties before the agreement is valid & for you to get a rebate.
