The process and cost of finding an agent to buy a second-hand house with full payment

The so-called housing agency fee is the service fee paid by the housing agency company to the intermediary when conducting real estate transactions. This service fee is required by both the seller and the buyer. Paid to an intermediary. Generally speaking, the agency fee is 1% to 2% of the transaction price of the house. However, there is currently no unified regulation on intermediary service fees, and they are generally charged according to industry habits. So let’s take a look at its general charging standards. Real estate brokerage fees vary according to different agency projects. House leasing agency fees, especially regardless of the length of the lease term, are based on the standard rent amount from half a month to one month, and are calculated in a lump sum negotiated by both parties. House buying and selling agency fees are calculated at 0.5%-2.5% of the total transaction price. If exclusive agency is implemented, the charging standard shall be negotiated between the client and the real estate agency, and may be appropriately increased, but shall not exceed 3% of the transaction price. Real estate agency fees also include real estate consulting fees. Real estate consultation is divided into two types: oral consultation fee and written inquiry fee. Oral consultation fees shall be negotiated and agreed upon by both parties based on the time required for the consultation service and the professional and technical level of the consultant. Written consultation fees are calculated based on the technical difficulty of the consultation report, the complexity of the work, and the amount of the work. Ordinary consulting reports charge 300-1,000 yuan each; for consulting reports that are technically difficult, complex, and consume a lot of manpower and time, the charging standard can be appropriately increased, but not more than 0.5% of the consulting subject amount.
Don’t let an intermediary company repre sent both parties. When conducting second-hand housing transactions, try to let the intermediary company only act as agent for one party, so as to truly guarantee the interests of the client. It is best if the three parties meet and the transaction should be transparent. Because house sales are actually very complicated, all three parties should communicate before the transaction. It is very important to check the relevant documents to pre vent the property listing from being fake. Otherwise, you will lose both money and house. In this case, the gain outweighs the loss.
