| Our realtor gave us a nice plant at closing. Should we have gotten her something? If you gave your realtor a gift, what did you give? |
| The commission is your gift to the realtor! A thank you note for the plant and his/her work would be polite. Your realtor would appreciate referrals and repeat business even more. And... congrats on the new home! |
|
A plant? You had a cheap realtor.
No, don’t get him/her anything. |
| All the money you are paying them is a great gift! |
| No gift for the realtor! |
| No. They were overpaid to begin with. |
| My realtor bought us lunch after, that’s it. |
| No gift. |
| They are already getting too much in commissions. No gift. |
| Yeah, no gift. I just realized our Realtor did not give us anything either so it would have been very strange if we have given her anything. |
| You are giving the realtor approx 6% of the sale price...if you just bought a $1mm house, the realtor got $60,000. Oh yea, you got a plant. |
| The best gift you can give is a referral. |
