Frequently Asked Questions — Real Estate Agents in Santa Clara
What is the difference between a buyer's agent and a listing agent in Santa Clara?
A buyer's agent represents you when purchasing and is legally obligated to work in your interest. A listing agent represents the seller. In most Santa Clara transactions, both are paid from the seller's proceeds. Since the 2024 NAR settlement, buyer's agent compensation is more negotiable — you may be asked to sign a buyer's representation agreement before touring homes. Ask any agent upfront how they are compensated.
How much does a real estate agent cost in Santa Clara?
Traditionally 5–6% of the sale price, split between buyer's and seller's agents. Post-2024 NAR settlement, commissions are more openly negotiable. On a $400,000 home in Santa Clara, that's $20,000–$24,000 in total commissions. Some agents offer discounted rates for repeat clients or higher-priced properties. Always negotiate.
How do I verify a real estate agent's license in CA?
Search the CA Real Estate Commission's online license lookup. You can also check if they're a Realtor (NAR member) at nar.realtor — Realtors are held to a Code of Ethics beyond basic licensing. Check reviews, sales history, and neighborhood expertise before interviewing agents.
What should I ask a real estate agent before hiring them in Santa Clara?
Ask: How many homes have you sold in this neighborhood in the past 12 months? What is your average list-to-sale price ratio? How do you communicate with clients (and how fast do you respond)? What is your marketing strategy for my home? Do you have relationships with lenders, inspectors, and attorneys in Santa Clara? A good agent answers these without hesitation.
