San Diego Discount Real Estate Agent

A discount fee — not discount service. Sell your San Diego home with full-service marketing, expert negotiation, and a broker who works your sale personally, all for a flat 1% listing fee. Keep thousands more of your equity.

See what you'll Save

Most San Diego listing agents charge 2.5% to 3% just to list your home — then hand you off to someone junior. On a San Diego home, that's often $15,000 to $25,000 out of your equity for service you could get for a fraction of the price.

As a 1% listing agent, I do the opposite: you work directly with me, the broker, from your first call through closing. Same full service — professional photos, video, MLS and portal syndication, negotiation — at a flat 1% listing fee. You keep the difference.

"Discount" doesn't mean less. Here's the truth.

When most people hear "discount real estate agent," they worry they'll get less marketing, less attention, or a rookie who cuts corners. That's a fair concern — and it's exactly backwards here.

I keep fees low by working as an efficient, broker-direct operation without the franchise overhead and layers that inflate traditional commissions. Those savings go to you, not into a big brand's marketing budget. You get the full-service experience — professional marketing, sharp negotiation, and a seasoned broker on your side — for a flat 1% listing fee instead of the usual 2.5% to 3%.

Lower fee. Full service. That's the whole idea.

Full service, start to finish

A discount fee gets you every piece a traditional listing includes — nothing stripped out:

Strategic pricing built on a real comparative market analysis

Professional photography and video

Social media and digital ad campaigns

Open houses and private showings, fully managed

Skilled negotiation and contract management, broker-direct

A pre-listing prep checklist and trusted vendor network

Cancel-anytime flexibility — you're never locked in

High impact social media campaign

" SD1% listed our house for us. His marketing was amazing. His photographer and videographer were the best and the "doll's house" view was incredible. We had thousands of views in just a few days. Our house sold quickly at the price we had hoped for. Escrow was fast and smooth. Nik explained everything in a way we could understand. His advice was always spot on and we couldn't have been happier with him. I would recommend him to any buyer or seller. He really listens to his clients. Nik exceeded our expectations and our expectations were very high! Thanks Nik for such a positive experience.

You work with the broker, not a hand-off

Plenty of agents take your listing and pass you to an assistant. As a discount broker who keeps things lean, I do the opposite: you work directly with me from pricing through closing. Fewer layers is exactly how the fee stays low — and it also means better, more direct service than many full-price options. Lean isn't lesser; here, it's the whole advantage.
