However, commissions are always negotiable and can vary depending on the agreement between the seller and the listing brokerage.
In some cases:
• Sellers may offer compensation to a buyer’s agent
• Buyers may negotiate different representation structures
• Commission structures may vary based on local market practices
The important thing to know is that compensation is agreed upon upfront in the listing agreement — it’s not a fixed government rate.
If you're buying or selling in Tampa, I’m happy to explain what’s typical in that market so you know exactly what to expect.

If I sell my home, will my boyfriend receive part of the sale?
I wanted some clarification before deciding to put my home on the market. My boyfriend and I purchased a home together several years ago. We split up so he signed a quitclaim deed but is obviously still on the loan. If I want to sell my home that I have been making payments on myself for the last 8 years. Does he need to sign anything and would he be entitled to any of the sale money?

Can the new owner of the rental property I live in kick me out?
The rental property that I'm living in now was sold to a new owner. The new owner wants to kick me out, remodel the unit, and re-rent the unit for a higher price. Is that legal?
