DROdio Home Buyer's Rebate Program
RebateReps Frequently Asked Questions
If the seller pays you a 3% commission, and you pay part of that back to the buyer as a rebate, then what if the seller is offering less than 3%?
An agent in our network will offer you a rebate based on the ratio of the seller's commission. He or she will work the details out with you before you begin your search, and will put it in writing.
