Buying in Florida and prefer a remote-first approach? Eaton Real Estate Company offers an online buyer-representation option at a proposed 1% buyer-side fee. We don't personally attend showings. If you want a local agent for property tours, we can help with an independent agent referral.
The online buyer option and our 1% seller listing service are separate agreements. Compensation is negotiable and confirmed in writing.
Whether you're searching in Orlando, Tampa, Jacksonville or South Florida, the right approach depends on location, desired service level and your timeline. Ask us to confirm coverage and suitability for your purchase.
Work with Eaton remotely by phone, email and electronic paperwork. Depending on the signed agreement, we can provide brokerage help with your offer, negotiations and contract-to-closing milestones. This is best for buyers comfortable managing their physical property tours separately.
We can try to introduce you to a licensed local agent through our network who can discuss in-person touring and hands-on services. That agent may work for a different brokerage and has their own agreement, availability and fees.
When an MLS participant is working with a buyer, applicable MLS practice rules generally require a written buyer agreement before touring a home, including covered virtual tours. Florida brokerage relationships and the particular duties owed depend on the agreed relationship and required disclosures. We'll review the services, compensation and representation status with you before we begin. Learn more from Florida Realtors' buyer agreement guidance.
Tell us the Florida city or county, your timeline, price range and whether you're also selling a property.
We'll discuss remote representation if it fits, or whether you need a hands-on independent local agent referral instead.
Review applicable representation paperwork and negotiable compensation terms before brokerage services begin.
Not under the direct 1% online model. It is remote-only. We can try to connect buyers who want in-person help with an independent licensed local agent, whose terms are separate.
Written buyer agreements are generally required before a buyer tours a home with an MLS participant who is working with them. The nature of the brokerage relationship and applicable Florida disclosures should be reviewed before services begin.
No. The fee is negotiable, and the signed buyer agreement determines compensation and your obligations. A seller may contribute to buyer-broker compensation, but payment is not guaranteed.
Yes. Eaton also offers a separate 1% full-service listing model for Florida sellers. We can help discuss coordinating the sale and your next purchase.
