Uses a 2.5% buyer agent commission for illustration. Since August 2024, buyer agent pay in Florida is agreed in a written buyer agreement before you tour homes, and it may be paid by the seller as a concession or by you. Your rebate is 25% of whatever your agent actually receives.
How the rebate shows up at a Florida closing
Florida allows rebates as long as everyone is told. Your agent's brokerage gives the rebate as a credit on your closing disclosure, and your lender has to approve it. Most loans limit credits to your actual closing costs and prepaid items, so on a financed purchase the rebate usually lowers your cash to close rather than coming as a cheque. Cash buyers can take it as a check at closing.
Condo buyers: the rebate is the same, but check the association's reserves and the milestone inspection status before you commit. See our Florida rebate guide.
