Questions

Are buyer rebates legal in Florida?

Yes. Florida allows a licensed brokerage to give part of its commission back to its client. It has to be disclosed on your closing statement and approved by your lender if you are financing.

How much cash back do I get buying in Longboat Key?

25% of the commission the partner agent actually receives on your purchase. Since the 2024 NAR settlement, buyer agent pay is agreed in writing up front, so the dollar amount is known before you make an offer.

Can I get the rebate in cash?

If you pay cash for the home, yes, usually at closing. With a mortgage, most lenders require the rebate as a credit toward closing costs, and loan programs cap how large that credit can be.
