How the Arizona Buyer Rebate Works

When you buy a home in Arizona, the seller typically offers a buyer agent commission — usually 2% to 3% of the sale price. With a traditional agent, they keep the entire commission. With ShopProp, we charge a flat fee starting at $1,995 and rebate the difference directly to you at closing.

On a $1,000,000 Arizona home with a 2.5% buyer commission ($25,000), your rebate would be $20,005. On a $2,000,000 home, you'd get $45,005 back. The higher the home price, the bigger your rebate.

Every ShopProp buyer in Arizona works with a managing broker — not just a solo agent. That means higher expertise, better negotiation, and full-service representation at a fraction of the cost.

Why Buyer Rebates Are Legal in Arizona

Buyer rebates are fully legal in Arizona. The Arizona Department of Real Estate permits agents to rebate a portion of their commission to buyers. The U.S. Department of Justice actively supports commission rebates as pro-consumer and pro-competition.

Despite this, most Arizona agents don't offer rebates because it cuts into their income. ShopProp was built differently — our flat-fee model is designed from the ground up to pass savings to you.

Arizona Real Estate Markets

Arizona's real estate market is diverse, from the luxury enclaves of Paradise Valley and Scottsdale to the growing suburbs of Gilbert, Chandler, and Queen Creek in the East Valley.

Phoenix Metro (Valley of the Sun): The largest market in Arizona, including Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, Tempe, Chandler, and Gilbert. Strong population growth continues to drive demand, making buyer rebates especially valuable as prices climb.

Tucson & Southern Arizona: More affordable than Phoenix, but with rising prices. Cities like Oro Valley and Sahuarita offer suburban value. A buyer rebate here can cover a significant portion of closing costs.

Northern Arizona: Flagstaff, Sedona, and Prescott offer mountain lifestyle living at premium prices. ShopProp's flat-fee model means thousands back on these higher-priced homes.
