When you purchase a home with DUFFY Realty, we share a portion of the commission we receive from the seller with you at closing. That means real cash back in your pocket — either applied to your closing costs or deposited directly into your bank account within 5 days after closing.

Absolutely! You receive complete buyer representation from A–Z — customized property searches, contract preparation, negotiation, inspection guidance, and closing support. The incentive is simply a bonus we give you for choosing DUFFY.

It depends on the purchase price and the commission being offered by the seller’s side. For example, on a $400,000 home with a 3% buyer agent commission, your DUFFY share could be thousands of dollars. We’ll provide you with a commission breakdown upfront, so you know exactly what to expect.

Yes! You can apply your DUFFY incentive toward your closing costs or opt for a direct deposit after closing — whichever works best for you.

Yes! Commission sharing with buyers is 100% legal in Georgia and fully disclosed. It’s simply our way of giving back to you.

If you choose direct deposit, your funds are typically sent within 5 business days after closing.

Great question! Many agents skip this step because they don’t want to rock the boat or they simply don’t have a structured process. Unfortunately, that often leads to wasted time touring homes you can’t actually buy, or writing offers that don’t get taken seriously.

At DUFFY, we do things differently. We gather your proof upfront and work your offers with you to make sure they stand out, are taken seriously by listing agents, and give you the strongest position possible. This isn’t about making you “do more” — it’s about protecting you, speeding up your search, and helping you get the house you actually want while putting money back in your pocket at closing.

The issue usually isn’t with DUFFY — it’s with the seller’s availability. We have to request the showing, wait for the seller (or their agent) to approve it, and then allow enough time for everyone to get to the property.

For the best chance of getting your requested time, give us as much notice as possible — especially if you’re asking for a showing Monday–Friday during high traffic hours. The more flexible you can be, the faster we can get you in the door.

Yes — but chances are, you’re already doing most of it anyway! You’re already searching online for homes, deciding which ones you want to see, and choosing when you want to tour them. With DUFFY, you’ll also provide proof of your ability to buy, submit the properties you want to view, and send us the offers you’d like written. We handle the legal work, negotiations, and closing — while you keep more money in your pocket.

Yes — we can help you buy any property listed on the MLS in Georgia, including resales, new construction, and even some off-market homes.

No problem — we can connect you with a trusted agent in your new area through our referral network. Here’s the best part: when that agent pays DUFFY 25% of their commission, we give HALF of that back to you after we’re paid! 🎉

That way, you still get the DUFFY advantage — even if you’re buying outside our direct service area.

YES! Many agents assume new construction is easy, but without experience, they don’t know the pitfalls or the details to watch for. At DUFFY, we’ve guided buyers through thousands of new construction transactions and provide a detailed New Construction checklist in addition to our full expertise — so you can avoid surprises and get the home you want.

No — at DUFFY, you get the full benefit of our team. That means if one agent is sick, on vacation, or tied up with another client, you still have our entire team behind you, making sure your home search and offers stay on track.

Not exactly! Many buyers assume agents from other companies are always available, but the reality is they also have personal lives and limitations. At DUFFY, our business hours are Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM–6:00 PM, Saturday 10:00 AM–5:00 PM, and Sunday check-ins until 5:00 PM.

This schedule ensures you get our full attention and professional guidance when you contact us — no rushed answers or missed details.

No worries — we’ve got you covered with our 24/7 Buyer Resource! This powerful tool gives you access to expert guidance, checklists, and tips anytime you need it. Built from over 53,000 combined transactions and 50+ years of team experience, it’s like having our entire team at your fingertips, even outside business hours.

Not at all! DUFFY’s process is designed for buyers of all experience levels. Our team provides step-by-step guidance, checklists, and access to our 24/7 Buyer Resource, so you always know what to do next. Even first-time buyers can navigate the market confidently — and take advantage of our cash-back incentive at closing.

DUFFY provides expert guidance and a suggested price range for your offer. We know what it takes to win with a seller in any market, and we’ll work with you to craft an offer that maximizes your chances of success while protecting your interests.

No! DUFFY expertly negotiates the contract and handles all the paperwork to make sure you are fully protected. Georgia is a Buyer Beware state, and our team ensures you avoid pitfalls and have a smooth, secure transaction from start to finish.

DUFFY works best for buyers who are serious and organized. If you want an agent to spend days going house to house with you, our model may not be ideal. To share our commission with you, we rely on buyers who follow our process, use our tools, and make strategic decisions. This ensures you get full guidance, efficiency, and cash back at closing.
