How SODL buyer credits work
When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.
- Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
- Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
- Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing
A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
