AATRealty offers qualifying sellers a 1% listing commission while providing full-service real estate representation. Brokerage compensation is negotiable and specific terms are established in the listing agreement.
Our 1% listing commission is designed primarily for homes priced over $500,000. For homes priced below $500,000, AATRealty typically charges a 1.5% listing commission. Final commission terms are confirmed in the listing agreement.
AATRealty works with a wide range of residential properties, including resale homes, luxury homes, custom homes, and new-construction properties throughout Texas. Most homes qualify for our full-service listing program, although commission structure may vary based on the property’s price, location, condition, and marketing needs. Homes priced $500,000 and above typically qualify for our 1% listing commission, while homes below $500,000 are generally offered at a 1.5% listing commission.

Not at AATRealty! This is the biggest advantage of our boutique approach. Because we own our media and architectural design companies (DallasPro and 3DHomeMedia), our overhead costs are much lower than traditional corporate brokerages. We pass those savings on to you in the form of flexible, negotiable commissions—while still providing our complete luxury marketing package and 24/7 expert representation.
It starts with a simple conversation! We will evaluate your property, discuss your timeline, and listen to your financial goals. From there, we will design a customized marketing plan and a commission structure that makes the most sense for you. Contact us today to get the conversation started.
Absolutely not. At AATRealty, we pride ourselves on complete transparency. Your customized commission structure will be clearly outlined and agreed upon in your listing agreement before we ever take a photo or put a sign in your yard. There are no surprises at the closing table.

This covers Broker Tara's expert pricing strategy, full contract negotiation, and our unmatched in-house marketing suite. Every listing receives magazine-style photography, 3D virtual tours, drone footage, and aggressive social media marketing to ensure maximum exposure across the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex.

No. Under the new real estate guidelines, sellers are not required to offer a set compensation to the buyer's agent on the MLS. However, offering a concession to help buyers cover their agent's fees can still be a highly effective marketing strategy to attract more offers. Broker Tara will help you weigh the pros and cons to decide what strategy is best for your specific home sale.
