San Diego's Low Commission Real Estate Broker

Sell your home with a low commission and deal directly with the broker — not a junior agent or an assistant. Full-service marketing, expert negotiation, and broker-level experience for a flat 1% listing fee instead of the usual 2.5% to 3%.

A broker in your corner — for a low commission

Not all real estate licenses are equal. A broker holds the highest license the state issues — more experience, more training, and full accountability for the transaction. Many sellers hire a big name and get handed to a newer agent working under that broker.

Here, you get the broker directly, and you pay a low commission for it: a flat 1% listing fee. Top-level representation, without the top-heavy price.

Low commission, real savings

A flat 1% instead of 2.5–3% keeps an extra $10,000 or more with most San Diego sellers — while you work with a broker the entire way, not a rotating cast of agents. Move the slider to your home's value to see your number.

"Nik helped us sell our home quickly and for top dollar — and I saved thousands thanks to his 1% listing fee! He was professional, responsive, and truly went above and beyond every step of the way.

" 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 hire the broker. You get the broker.

This is the difference that matters. At many brokerages, the broker signs you and an agent handles the work. Here, the broker prices your home, runs your marketing, sits at the negotiation table, and answers when you call — start to finish. A low commission and the most experienced person on the file, working your sale personally. Lean isn't lesser; it's the whole advantage.
