The Broker + Attorney Advantage
John McConnin is both a licensed California Real Estate Broker and a Real Estate Attorney. You get two professional perspectives in one, for just 1% of the sale price.
What a Traditional Agent Does
- • Lists your home on the MLS
- • Coordinates showings
- • Listing fees commonly range from approximately 2.5% to 3%
- • Traditional agents generally work within standard real estate forms and cannot provide legal advice unless separately qualified
- • Real estate licensees generally cannot provide legal advice unless they are also licensed attorneys
What We Do Differently
- • Full MLS + Enhanced Marketing Package (premium services selected for your property)
- • Attorney-broker review of contracts and disclosure strategy within the defined scope of the service
- • Transparent 1% pricing, listing side only
- • Custom counter-offer strategy for buyer agent fee requests
- • Attorney-broker perspective on contracts, disclosures, negotiation, and risk
The Attorney-Broker Advantage: Making Buyer Agents Earn Their Commission
Standard CAR forms are designed to help buyer agents get paid well. As a lawyer-broker, John can use custom attorney-drafted forms to make buyer agents actually work for and justify their commissions.
We bifurcate the negotiation into two separate forms, one for the price and terms of the home, and one for buyer-agent compensation. Realtors don't have these forms; only an attorney can draft them.
Timing matters. We'll discuss the ideal moment to bifurcate so you're more likely to get a higher price and a higher net for your home. Ask us how it works.
Buyer-agent compensation is negotiable and separate from our 1% listing-side fee. The seller decides whether to accept, reject, or counter any requested compensation.
The Commission Isolation Strategy
Negotiate Buyer-Agent Commissions Like a Pro
Most agents let buyer-agent compensation get folded into the same conversation as your sale price, often costing sellers leverage they don't realize they had. We do it differently. Using attorney-drafted forms available only through our practice, we isolate your home sale into two separate negotiations: first, price and terms with the buyer, then, once you and the buyer are already aligned, a second negotiation for buyer-agent compensation. Timed correctly, this sequencing can meaningfully increase your net proceeds.
Two separate negotiations instead of one blended discussion
Timed for leverage, after price and terms are already locked in
Attorney-drafted forms, not available through standard CAR paperwork
