Kick back or gift card to listing agent?

[Sandra Holt]

Hi Everyone!  I just bought a property without an agent and the listing agent, even though he did not take the buyers agent commission, has been guiding me along this process to include drafting the formal offer contract, putting all the documents in the cloud for easy signing, etc.  He's been nothing but professional and very transparent throughout the whole process and if I ever do need an agent, he'll be the one that I call.  So, my question is, because I won't be needing an agent any time soon, should I send the realtor a gift card with a nice thank you note or will that not suffice?  Should I send him cash instead?  Or am I being too generous and should I think that his going above and beyond is just what I should expect and he got his half of the commission for doing his job?
