Allow Real Estate Agent (Buyer's Agent) Commission Rebate in Tennessee
The Issue
When buying a home, most people think using a buyer's agent service is free. This is not true as the buyer's agent is paid by the seller and their commission is factored into the sales price.
In 40 states other states besides Tennessee, a buyer's agent is legally allowed to rebate a portion of their commission to their client (the buyer).
By signing this petition, you stand to lower housing costs and increase competition among real estate brokerages by allowing them to rebate part of their commission to you!
After all, most buyers find their own home online so why is their realtor entitled to a 3% commission?
