What is the average real estate agent commission in California?

Real estate agent commissions in California typically range from about 4% to 6% of the home’s sale price, usually split between the listing agent and the buyer’s agent. The exact rate is negotiable and should be confirmed with your agent before you sign a listing or buyer agreement. After the 2024 industry settlement, compensation arrangements can vary more by market and brokerage, so ask how fees work for your specific transaction.
