Start Buying With DUFFY
You found the home. DUFFY gets you in FAST!
Here is what changed after the NAR settlement: buyer-agent compensation is no longer something buyers can afford to ignore. A seller may offer compensation to the buyer’s agent, but it may not cover whatever your buyer agreement says you owe. If your agreement says your agent gets 3% and the seller only offers 2%, you may have to write a check for the missing 1% at closing. That gap may not be financeable, and it can show up when you are already trying to close.
DUFFY has done it differently since 2002. Our buyer fee for representation is 1.5%, not 3%.
Why? Because the internet changed the work. Every home is online with photos, details, maps, school zones, price history, and search filters. You are often doing the work agents used to do: finding the house.
If you find the home and the seller-paid buyer compensation is higher than DUFFY’s 1.5% fee, DUFFY gives you the difference as a wire after closing or toward closing costs. That difference is your DUFFY Finder Fee.
DUFFY helps you get in fast, ask smarter questions, investigate the right things, write the offer, protect the contract, and close. No Drama. No Confusion. Totally Protected.

Founder Letter
Why Rhonda and Frank Built DUFFY
DUFFY started when Rhonda and Frank saw that lower fees were often given by relationship, not because the service duties changed.
