Where your savings come from

Here’s what happens to the commission a traditional sale already sets aside for the buyer’s side.

In any home sale, commissions come out of the sale price, not your pocket.

That buyer’s-side commission comes back into the deal, enough to cover VroomBrick’s 1% technology fee and leave the rest as a credit toward your closing costs. The seller’s own listing agent, if they have one, is paid the same either way.

† This isn’t a cap. You can ask the seller to cover even more of your closing costs, that’s a normal part of negotiating. This credit just costs them nothing extra; anything beyond it comes out of the seller’s own proceeds, so it’s a bigger ask.
