Sellers: You Don’t Get to Dictate the Buyer Agent’s Commission | Texas Real Estate

I recently saw a real-estate discussion where a seller only wanted to contribute 1% toward buyer-agent compensation, while the buyer’s offer requested 3%.

The transaction fell apart, and apparently the seller wanted to complain about the buyer’s agent.
But this is where competent representation matters.

A buyer can submit an offer requesting seller contribution toward their broker’s compensation.

A seller does not have to agree.
The seller can:
Accept.
Reject.
Counter.
If the seller only wants to contribute 1%, counter at 1%.

Then the buyer decides whether the overall transaction still makes financial sense.

The buyer’s representation agreement with their broker is also generally confidential. A seller or listing broker isn't automatically entitled to demand to see that agreement or its compensation provisions.

That doesn't mean the buyer-agent fee isn't negotiable between the buyer and their broker.

It means that's their agreement.
The seller negotiates what the seller is willing to contribute.

That's why a listing agent should be explaining the options to the seller instead of making the situation unnecessarily adversarial.

And sellers should evaluate the whole offer.

Maybe a buyer asks for a larger broker contribution but offers:
a stronger price,
better financing,
shorter option period,
fewer concessions elsewhere,
or a better closing timeline.

Look at the net transaction.

As a Dallas-Fort Worth real estate broker, I think one of the biggest values an agent should provide is understanding how to structure and negotiate these situations correctly.

Because a disagreement over commission does not automatically mean somebody did something wrong.
Sometimes it's simply:

A NEGOTIATION.

Real Estate Can Make You Wealthy—It Can Also Destroy You Financially

Social media has created a dangerous illusion around real estate.

People see someone flip a house, collect rent or close a transaction and immediately think:

“I can do that.”

Maybe you can.

But watching an experienced professional perform a job is not the same thing as having their knowledge, judgment and experience.

During the 2020–2022 boom, real estate attracted enormous attention from new investors, agents and landlords.

A rapidly appreciating market made many mistakes easier to survive.

Today, financing is more expensive, transactions are harder, expenses are higher and margins can be thinner.

Those conditions expose bad decisions quickly.

And financial pressure more broadly is real: U.S. bankruptcy filings increased 12.2% during the year ending June 30, 2026, including a 16.9% increase in business filings.

That doesn't mean real estate is bad.

I invest in real estate.
I sell real estate.
I own rental property.
I believe real estate can be one of the greatest wealth-building tools available.

But there is a huge difference between:
investing
and
gambling with leverage because somebody on the internet made it look easy.

Before buying the course, buying the flip, becoming a landlord or quitting your job to become an agent:
Learn the numbers.

Learn the risks.
Build reserves.
Understand the market.
And respect the profession.
Because real estate can build wealth very quickly when you know what you're doing.

It can also expose ignorance very quickly when you don't.

A Texas Family Voted Republican for Generations—Until This Election

I started a consultation today expecting to talk about preparing to purchase a house next year.
Instead, my prospective client said something that completely changed the conversation:
“President Trump may have set the Republican Party back a decade.”
She told me her family had voted Republican for as long as she could remember—but this election, every member voted Democrat.
Then she explained the experiences that changed their thinking.
Healthcare problems for her elderly grandmother.
Federal job losses affecting her uncle and cousins.
Reduced overtime affecting her husband's ability to pay down debt.
And parents struggling to sell their house during a year filled with economic and geopolitical uncertainty.
Again, those are her family's experiences and conclusions.
But what happened in Texas was historically significant: voters elected a Democratic governor for the first time since the 1990s and elected a Democrat to the U.S. Senate.

What interested me most wasn't the party.
It was the connection between politics and household economics.
As a Dallas-Fort Worth real estate broker, I see those connections constantly.
Jobs affect mortgage qualification.
Overtime affects debt payoff.
Inflation affects savings.
Healthcare affects disposable income.
And all of those things affect someone's ability to buy, sell or keep a home.
Maybe that's why I'm hearing more people—especially younger and middle-aged adults—talk about voting in much more serious terms.
So I'm genuinely curious:
Have you noticed people around you paying more attention to elections because government policy is affecting their finances more directly?

The Opportunity Isn't Always the Problem—Sometimes We're Just Not Ready

Something I received from Bank of America this morning reminded me of an important conversation.

I was offered the ability to potentially transfer up to $36,000 into my bank account, with a one-time 4% transfer fee and a promotional 0% interest period through February 2028.
I'm not recommending anyone borrow $36,000.

It simply made me think about a friend who recently told me the house he wants is too expensive.

I asked him:
“If that exact house became available tomorrow in your price range—and the deal was incredible—could you buy it?”
After thinking about it, he admitted that he couldn't.

And that was the real issue.

Sometimes we're focused on what we can't afford today without asking whether we're preparing ourselves for tomorrow's opportunity.
Improve the credit. Build the savings. Reduce unnecessary debt. Increase your income. Build reserves. Learn.
You don't know when the opportunity will come. Your job is to be prepared when it does.

Making money is difficult enough. That's why preparation matters.
A Bank of America offer I received this morning reminded me of a conversation with a friend who said the house he wanted was too expensive.

I asked him:
“If that exact house became affordable tomorrow and the deal was amazing, could you buy it?”
His answer was no.
And that's the bigger lesson.
We spend a lot of time complaining about opportunities we don't have—but are we actually preparing ourselves to take advantage of them when they appear?
Build the credit. Save the money. Reduce the debt. Build the reserves.
You can't control when opportunity comes. You can control whether you're ready.
This isn't advice to borrow money—it's about financial preparation.

What an $80,000 Salary Looks Like in Dallas vs 5 Major Cities

Imagine six people all earning $80,000 per year.

One lives in Dallas. The others live in Chicago, New York City, Denver, Atlanta and Los Angeles.

Same income—but once this comparison considers taxes, one-bedroom rent and transportation, the financial outcomes look very different.

According to the assumptions used in the video, Dallas comes out as the most affordable of the six.

That illustrates an important financial lesson:
It's not simply about how much you earn.

It's also about how much of that income your lifestyle and location require you to spend.

Actual expenses vary from person to person, but understanding cost of living should absolutely be part of your financial and relocation decisions.

What Does an $80K Salary REALLY Buy You? 👀

In this Why Visualized video, six people make $80,000/year but live in Dallas, Chicago, NYC, Denver, Atlanta and Los Angeles.

Once taxes, rent and transportation are considered, that same salary produces VERY different results.
According to this comparison, Dallas comes out ahead in affordability.

The bigger lesson: your salary isn't everything.
What you earn matters. What it costs you to live matters too.

How My Buyer Got a Great Deal on a VA Foreclosure in DFW

Greg West and I on a VA Foreclosure yesterday, and this transaction is a perfect example of why I keep telling buyers there are still opportunities in the Dallas–Fort Worth market.

My client purchased a VA foreclosure, got the house they wanted in the area they wanted, and we were also able to negotiate significant seller concessions.

But finding the opportunity was only part of it.
You need the right team to properly structure and navigate the transaction.
Huge shoutout to Mr. Greg West—one of the most knowledgeable mortgage brokers I've worked with and someone I consider an absolute expert when it comes to VA financing.

If you're eligible for a VA loan, work with people who genuinely understand how the program works.

Your Security Deposit Is NOT Your Moving Fund 👀

It's important to explain why tenants shouldn't treat their security deposit like an automatic withdrawal to fund their next apartment—and I agree with the bigger point.

A security deposit exists to protect obligations under the lease.

Once the tenant moves out, the landlord needs an opportunity to inspect the property and determine whether there are legitimate damages or other charges beyond normal wear and tear.
That means tenants shouldn't financially plan their next move assuming the entire deposit will immediately be returned.

Prepare for your next apartment with money you already have—not money you're still waiting to receive.

Remember my video about choosing the cheapest real estate agent?

Here's the update: my HVAC guy estimates the system replacement at approximately $10,000–$11,000.
That's exactly why I say your agent shouldn't be selected based on price alone.
You're paying for experience, negotiation, contract knowledge, problem-solving, and representation during one of the largest financial transactions you'll make.
Cheap doesn't always mean inexpensive.
