2percentwestcoast Canada's Largest Lower Commission & Full Service Real Estate Brand

  Selling a home is rarely simple. There's the timing. The price. The stack of paperwork that never seems to end. And then there's the commission. For many homeowners, that last piece feels the hardest to accept. You've spent years building and investing in your home, only to see a large portion of the sale price go to fees when it's finally time to sell. That's where a lower commission realtor can make a difference. What the Lower Commission Means At first, the idea raises eyebrows. Pay less and still get a full-service realtor? People wonder if there's a catch. But the model at 2% Realty West Coast is pretty simple. Instead of the traditional five or six per cent, they work at two per cent.
