The way we sell Cache County Utah real estate is different than almost any other product or service. The way the system works, sellers pay a lot to sell their homes, while buyers usually don't pay anything. The ironic thing is that real estate agents usually work a lot harder with buyers than they do with sellers. 

When a homeowner needs to sell their home so they hire a Realtor, known as the listing agent. Thier job is to advertise and market the the sellers property, and represent the seller in the transaction to ensure the protection of the seller.

When the listing agent takes a listing, a contract is signed that among other things inlcudes the length of the listing agreement and the real estate brokerages listing fee. (usually 5-6% of the gross sales price). Half of this commission can be given to a buyers agent if they provide a ready, willing, and able buyer. If  the listing agent sells the house without another agent involved, then they receive the entire commission.

 

When buying a home, buyers don't have to pay their agent anything. It is free to use a buyers agent.
