Who Pays the Buyer's Agent Commission in 2026 Is Negotiable Now, but the Rate Barely Moved
A 2024 antitrust settlement was supposed to kill the 6% commission. Two years later the buyer's agent still earns about 2.4%, roughly what it was before. What changed is that the fee is hidden from the listing, written into a contract you sign, and yours if the seller won't cover it.
