Buyers agents may start to get more creative on the payment of their services by offering a la carte pricing, flat fees, and hourly services to better fit their buyers budgets. 

One things are rolling, it takes relatively little to keep that momentum on flat straightaways.Similarly, pulling the pieces of a business together is a similar effort.

What percentage of my rent would you charge or is there a flat fee for each cleaning?

On one of my new home developments here in Oregon I paid a construction Risk manager a flat fee of 15k.. to over see the underground process..

Buyer's agent could/should also negotiate a seller credit that makes the offer $100k, with $3k credit for buyer agent compensation, again resulting in a seller net of $94k.But now buyer has the opportunity to agree with their agent that the rate should be 2%, or a flat fee of $2k, and the buyer then pockets that savings.

I just charged a flat fee and they got a discount on title and escrow services I found this to be quick and painless ,, and whats more Safe for me.. except if they never bought it back I end up owning some home in GA I never wanted in the first place..

Find a qualified agent willing to work only on a flat fee to write up the contract and other legal requirements.

Alex, I could see lower end and rental properties stay flat or even go lower in the short term until rents find some balance.

These are sometimes referred to as in-law units or granny flats and they are not new to the commonwealth but a favorable ADU policy has the potential to add over 10,000 units and offer homeowners a potential source of income.As a lifelong house hacker, my wife and I immediately recognized the potential of this 2-story garage in the back of the property.

You may pay a bit more and make a little less, but playing the long term game is key in real estate.The types of structures could be lump sum (one price) or cost plus (meaning you pay the cost of material and labor plus a flat fee—more of an open-book model).I see some investors who want to pay for ALL the materials, which is excellent for the investor (more control of finishes & cost) and general contractor (if they are getting paid well).
