A large corporation sets policy and prices in the corporate boardroom.  The Chief Operating Officer approves marketing plans created by a Vice President of Business Development in cooperation with the Director of Marketing. These commission structures are approved by the CEO to meet the corporate image and needs. At the street level, representatives and franchises adhere to corporate policy.

A tiny brookerage like Nesbitt Realty makes decisions at the street level, because the lowest level is around 4 steps away from the highest levels of our little business.  This means, we have the power to develop commission structures as the need arises.  We've studied the commission fees and structures offered by the biggest names in real estate and we've realized that we can match, meet or beat any commission by any broker in Northern Virginia.  We've simplified these plans into a number of options that range from a 1% to 7% commission.  In addition we've removed an administrative fees that are charged over and above the commission so there are no surprises at closing!

It's a good idea for you talk with us and compare our fees and choices to any competitor in Northern Virginia.  If you like what they have to offer, but want to work with a family-run small business: talk to us before you sign. Most likely, we already have a similar sales option. (We can show you where the cheese is hiding in any plan, by the way.) In the unlikely event that we don't already offer a similar commission sales package, we have the flexibility to match or beat what you have in hand.
