Adapting to the New NAR Commission Structure | How All City Homes Puts Clients First

The real estate landscape is shifting, and with the recent changes to the National Association of Realtors® (NAR) commission structure, it's more important than ever for buyers and sellers to understand their options. At All City Homes, we’re committed to leading our clients through these changes with the same dedication to education and service that has made us a trusted name in the Sacramento community for over 17 years.

Our Commitment to Client Education and Service

At All City Homes, our foremost goal has always been to educate our clients, ensuring they have the knowledge and resources needed to make informed decisions when buying or selling a home. With the new NAR commission rules, we’re doubling down on this commitment, providing even more in-depth guidance to help our clients navigate the complexities of the real estate market.

We believe that every client deserves to fully understand the options available to them, especially when it comes to how commissions are structured for both buyer and seller agents. This is why we are reinforcing our approach by ensuring that each client signs a buyer broker agreement with us. This agreement clearly outlines the services we provide, setting expectations from the start and highlighting our unwavering commitment to their success.

How We’re Addressing the NAR Changes

The changes in the NAR commission structure mean that transparency and clarity are more crucial than ever. At All City Homes, we’re taking proactive steps to ensure our clients are well-informed about these changes and how they might impact their real estate transactions.

1. Comprehensive Value Proposition | We provide our clients with a detailed value proposition sheet that lists all the services they receive when working with All City Homes. This includes everything from home buying strategies to leveraging tools like Homelight and HomeSimple, which can help turn our clients into cash buyers—a significant advantage in today’s competitive market.

2. Tailored Home Buying Strategies | Affordability is a primary concern for today’s buyers, and we address this head-on by developing customized home buying strategies. We sit down with our clients to discuss their budget, financial landscape, and the best options available to them. Unlike many agents who may only scratch the surface, we dig deep to uncover all possible avenues for making homeownership affordable. This includes exploring options like buy-downs, permanent buy-downs, FHA assistance, and identifying pockets of communities in Sacramento that fit their budget and criteria.

3. Creative Solutions for Commission Costs | If a seller does not offer compensation to the buyer’s agent, we work closely with our clients to find solutions that minimize out-of-pocket expenses. This might involve negotiating with sellers or their agents to secure concessions that can help cover our fees. When these options are not available, we develop alternative strategies to alleviate the financial burden on our clients.

Tools and Resources to Enhance the Home Buying Experience

In addition to our personalized service, All City Homes offers a suite of tools and resources designed to give our clients an edge in the market:

  • Home Search App | Our app provides real-time, accurate listings of open houses and market data, surpassing other tools that may not offer the most up-to-date information. It also includes access to all the programs we offer, such as FHA buyer programs and down payment assistance, as well as connections to local vendors like contractors and handymen.

  • Buy Before You Sell Program | For clients looking to move, this program allows them to purchase a new home before selling their current one, providing flexibility and peace of mind during the transition.

  • Home Renovation Assistance | We help our clients maximize their sale price by connecting them with contractors and deferring payment until the close of escrow, ensuring they can make the necessary improvements without upfront costs.
