Waterman Property Advocates

Waterman Property Advocates quotes per job rather than publishing a price. Across the market, buyer's agents charge either a percentage of the purchase price, commonly 1.5% to 2.5%, or a fixed fee of about $8,000 to $30,000 for a full search-and-negotiate service. Negotiation or auction bidding on its own costs less, often from a few hundred dollars, and most agencies add an engagement fee at signing that comes off the final invoice.
