Know exactly what commissions cost you before you list. Freddie calculates agent fees, net proceeds, and total selling costs on any property sale.
Dan White, 20-year fix-and-flip veteran in Northern Virginia, used FreeDealCalc to analyze a $130,000 wholetail opportunity in under 5 minutes. No spreadsheet. No paid software. Just Freddie.


"I've been flipping houses for 20 years and I built this tool because nothing free was actually good enough. Freddie does what I used to do with spreadsheets — but in seconds, for free, for every investor who needs it."
A buyer who purchases this property as a wholetail deal undertakes all renovation work at their own direction, cost, and risk. The seller makes no representations regarding property condition and all sales are as-is. Buyer is responsible for all due diligence, inspections, and compliance with local codes and regulations.
Commission is a percentage of the sale price. At 5% on a $300K sale, total commission is $15,000 — typically split between listing agent and buyer's agent. Post-NAR settlement, commission structures are more flexible but buyer agent compensation must be negotiated separately.
Following the 2024 NAR settlement, buyer agent commissions are now negotiated separately rather than baked into the listing. Listing commissions typically run 2-3%. Buyer agent compensation ranges from 2-3% but is now explicitly negotiated. Total costs are similar but more transparent.
Investors often sell direct to other investors without agents (wholesale, direct buyer networks), list with flat-fee MLS services ($300-$500), negotiate reduced commissions with high-volume listing agents, or use investor-friendly brokerages that offer rebates.
Depends on your buyer pool and market. If you have direct access to cash buyers through your network, FSBO saves $10,000-$20,000 on a typical flip. If your property needs retail buyers for maximum ARV, a good agent may net you more than their commission costs in higher sale price.
A net listing means the agent keeps everything above a price you set. For example, if you want $250K net and the agent sells for $270K, they keep $20K. Net listings are illegal in many states due to conflict of interest — always confirm legality before using this structure.
On a $350K flip sale at 5% commission, you're paying $17,500 before any other closing costs. This is one of the most overlooked profit killers on flips. Always include full selling costs in your deal analysis — Freddie factors commissions automatically into every deal score.
Free forever. No credit card. No spreadsheet. Just Freddie.
