Editor’s note: On March 15, 2024, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) <\/span>announced<\/span><\/a> a landmark lawsuit settlement that will change the way real estate agent commissions are handled in the future. These changes will \u201cdecouple\u201d seller and buyer agent compensation. Industry experts predict that this decoupling will likely lower agent fees and give buyers the ability to negotiate commission amounts directly. <\/span>Learn more<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Most real estate agents in Oklahoma get paid through commissions. Commissions are typically calculated as a percentage of a property\u2019s sale price, though some brokerages will charge a flat fee. The average agent commission<\/a> rate nationwide is 5.8% of the home sale price, according to HomeLight\u2019s real estate transaction data of thousands of home sales each year. But how does that compare to the average real estate commission rate in Oklahoma?<\/p>\n

In this post, we\u2019ll help you determine how much commission you might pay on your Oklahoma home sale, and what options are available to earn the highest proceeds possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

What’s the average real estate commission in Oklahoma?<\/h2>\n

According to Tammy Rice<\/a>, an Oklahoma real estate agent who sells homes 60% quicker than the average Sand Springs agent, you can expect to pay about 5%-6% in agent commissions when selling a home in Oklahoma, with some variation based on location within the state. On a property worth the current statewide median home sale price of $250,000<\/a>, that amounts to $12,500\u2013$15,000 in commission costs.<\/p>\n

Using an overall statewide average of 5.5%, here\u2019s a breakdown of how much you might pay in real estate commissions based on what a home sells for in six of the largest cities in Oklahoma:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Still curious about commission rates in Oklahoma? Here are the answers to common questions about real estate agent commissions:<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Who pays real estate commission fees?<\/h2>\n

The commission is typically paid by the home seller, and the seller\u2019s agent will then split the commission with the buyer\u2019s agent.<\/p>\n

There are rare occasions when a buyer will offer to cover the Realtor fees<\/a> to sweeten the deal for the seller, but it\u2019s highly unusual.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe’re not seeing that here in Oklahoma,\u201d explains Rice. \u201cThe seller is still covering all that.\u201d<\/p>\n
