Changes in the Home Buying Process
Significant changes have been made to the home buying process in the United States aimed at reducing complications and costs. A recent class action settlement requires buyers to sign contracts with real estate agents before viewing homes, shifting the negotiation of commissions from sellers to buyers. This adjustment is expected to lower commission rates, potentially bringing them down from the traditional 5 to 6 percent closer to 2.5 to 3 percent. While critics hope for increased transparency and reduced costs, experts caution that the most influential factors on home prices remain mortgage rates, which still exert significant pressure on affordability.
