SimpleFee Realty advertises a "low fixed fee" for transaction management, passing the rest of the buyer commission to you. But what is the actual fee? It's not always prominently published.
ShopProp's fee is transparent: $1,995 for homes under $700K. It's published on the website, stated upfront, and never varies based on negotiation or the mood of the day. You know exactly what you'll pay — and exactly what you'll get back — before you start.
Unless SimpleFee's fee is lower than $1,995 (which would be rare for any full-service brokerage), ShopProp returns more to the buyer. Period.

|---|---|---|
| Home Price | $600,000 | $600,000 |
| Buyer Commission (2.5%) | $15,000 | $15,000 |
| Broker Keeps | $1,995 | "Low fixed fee" — ask them |
| Your Rebate | $13,005 | $15,000 minus their fee |
If SimpleFee's fee is $3,000, your rebate is $12,000 — $1,005 less than ShopProp. If it's $5,000, you get $10,000 back — $3,005 less. The lower the fee, the bigger your rebate. ShopProp's $1,995 is the benchmark.

Transparent vs ambiguous pricing. ShopProp's $1,995 buyer fee is published and fixed. SimpleFee advertises a "low fixed fee" without always making the exact number easy to find. Transparency matters when you're making the biggest financial decision of your life.
Full-service vs transaction management. SimpleFee positions itself as "transaction management" — helping with paperwork and process. ShopProp provides full-service buyer representation with a managing broker who reviews disclosures, structures offers, negotiates repairs, and guides you through closing.
Managing broker on every deal. ShopProp assigns Managing Broker Rob Luecke Jr (FL BK3666714) to every transaction. That's the highest level of real estate licensure — and it's included in the $1,995 fee.
Seller services too. ShopProp offers full-service seller listings from $7,995, saving $13,005 vs a traditional 3% agent on a $600K home. If you're buying and selling, ShopProp handles both sides.
19 years, 4,000+ transactions, 9 states. ShopProp was founded in 2007 and has closed over 4,000 deals. That experience matters — especially in Florida's complex market with hurricane disclosures, HOA requirements, and insurance volatility.
ShopProp pioneered transparent flat-fee pricing nearly 20 years ago — not to discount real estate, but to elevate it. Founded in 2007, ShopProp put a managing broker on every transaction because the percentage model doesn't reward better service — it just charges more. Nearly two decades and 4,000+ deals across 9 states later, ShopProp didn't lower the bar on service. It raised it — and lowered the cost of getting there.
