Our FlatFee Listing Service
At Modern RE, our customer-centric approach drives our flat fee listing program, putting more money in your pocket without sacrificing quality service.

At Modern RE, we focus on what matters most: selling your home for maximum value at a fair, transparent flat fee. Choose us to keep more of your equity while receiving top-tier service.
Understanding Buyer’s Agency: A Simple Guide for New Buyers
As a new home buyer, working with a buyer’s agent can make the process smoother and less stressful. A buyer’s agent is a licensed real estate professional who represents your interests as the buyer, not the seller’s. Here’s a quick summary to help you understand buyer’s agency:
What They Do
A buyer’s agent helps you find homes that match your needs, negotiates on your behalf, guides you through the purchase process, and protects your interests. They provide market insights, coordinate showings, and assist with paperwork..
Your Advocate:
Unlike a seller’s agent, who works for the seller, your buyer’s agent is loyal to you. They aim to get you the best deal possible whileensuring you understand every step.
How It Works in Delaware:
In Delaware, a licensee working with you is presumed to be your statutory agent unless a different relationship is agreed upon in writing. They must provide a Consumer Information Statement (CIS) early on to explain their role and have you sign it before any agreements.
Cost:
In many cases, the seller pays the buyer’s agent’s commission through the sale proceeds, so you may not pay anything out of pocket. However, discuss compensation upfront to avoid surprises.
Why It Matters:
Having a buyer’s agent means you have an expert in your corner, helping you navigate a complex process with confidence and clarity.
