Most buyers don't realize how much of the commission flows back when the brokerage isn't paid as a percentage. Run the numbers on your own price range — no sign-up, no email.

  • The buyer-side commission is usually already on the table. The seller offers it, and traditionally the buyer's brokerage keeps the whole thing — most buyers never see a dollar of it.
  • SODL keeps a flat $3,000 — not a percentage. Everything above that flat fee flows back to you as a credit at closing, so a higher price doesn't mean a bigger cut for us.
  • Listing your current home too? The same flat $3,000 replaces the traditional listing-side commission — one flat fee on each side.

How buying works

A clear path from search to closing day.

Tour homes on demand with our showing agents, submit offers through our platform with guided support, and keep more of your money at closing.

01 · SEARCH

Describe your home.

Use plain language — "walkable, good schools, finished basement." Search understands real-estate speak so you don't have to fight with filters.

02 · TOUR

Schedule showings

Use SODL’s on-demand showing network to see homes when you want, while keeping more of the buyer-side commission at closing.

03 · OFFER

Make an offer

Review comps, submit offers digitally, and work through negotiations with guided support from the SODL platform.

04 · CLOSE

Close on your home

SODL uses technology and streamlined operations to return more value to buyers. Less cash at closing, more in your pocket.

Sell with SODL

A modern approach to selling your home and saving thousands.

Avoid traditional percentage-based commissions while still getting the exposure, marketing, and support needed to sell with confidence.

01 · PREP

Get listing-ready.

Professional photography, a 3D virtual tour, floor plans, home details, and seller disclosures are coordinated through one streamlined platform.

02 · LIST

Launch with full exposure.

SODL combines modern marketing for maximum exposure with transparent flat-fee pricing, no matter your home’s value.

03 · REVIEW

Manage transaction digitally.

Track showings, review offers, sign documents, and follow transaction milestones through your SODL dashboard.

04 · CLOSE

Keep more at closing.

Less money lost to commissions means more equity stays with you, where it belongs. A better experience for a fraction of the cost.

Traditional vs. SODL

The same transaction — different math.

We kept what works about traditional real estate (a licensed agent who knows the market) and rebuilt what doesn't (percentage-based commissions, hidden costs, opaque process).

"SODL made selling our home simple and affordable. We saved over $15,000 in commissions, yet still had full MLS exposure, professional marketing, and guidance throughout the process. We'd absolutely recommend SODL to anyone looking to keep more equity while still getting a seamless, supported transaction."

Yes. SODL is a licensed real estate brokerage in Minnesota. Every transaction is handled by a Minnesota-licensed SODL agent, and every listing is on the MLS. The technology makes the experience better — it doesn't replace the licensed professionals legally required to broker a real estate transaction.
Your credit is the buyer-side commission the seller offers, minus SODL's flat $3,000 platform fee. The exact amount depends on the commission offered on the home you buy, and the credit must be approved by your lender to appear on your Closing Disclosure. We show you the math before you write an offer — no surprises at closing.
Professional photography, MLS syndication across Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com, and others, pricing guidance, offer review and negotiation, transaction management, and a licensed SODL agent attending your closing. What it doesn't cover: the buyer-side commission you choose to offer, which is still a factor in how your home sells — though you decide the amount.
SODL is currently licensed in Minnesota. If you're searching for homes outside MN, you'll see MLS listings but won't be able to transact with us yet. We're expanding — drop your email and we'll let you know when SODL launches in your state.
Yes. SODL combines digital tools with licensed real estate professionals to guide you through the transaction process.
Traditional real estate commissions are typically percentage-based, meaning costs increase as home prices rise. SODL uses transparent flat-fee pricing and a more efficient operating model designed to reduce unnecessary overhead while helping buyers and sellers keep more money at closing.
SODL charges transparent flat platform fees instead of relying entirely on traditional percentage-based commissions. By streamlining operations and using technology to reduce administrative inefficiencies, SODL is able to deliver a more modern real estate experience at a lower cost.
Yes. Buyers can schedule private tours through SODL's showing network or choose the SODL Concierge experience for dedicated one-on-one agent support. The goal is to create a more flexible and convenient touring experience without the delays common in traditional real estate.
Traditional brokerages are often built around large commission splits, office overhead, and legacy systems that haven't changed much in decades. SODL was designed from the ground up with a technology-first operating model focused on reducing friction, simplifying workflows, and creating more value for consumers.
