The Money Already Exists

The builder is paying a commission whether you claim it or not.

Every new construction home in Texas includes a buyer agent commission in the purchase price. Builders typically allocate 3% of the sale price to pay a buyer's agent. This line item exists on every home, every floor plan, every community.

If you walk into a model home without your own agent, the builder's on-site sales representative handles your purchase. That sales rep works for the builder, not for you. And that 3% commission? The builder keeps it. You don't get a price reduction. You don't get representation. You get nothing.

Commission Cash Back changes that equation. We act as your buyer's agent, provide full representation, and give you 2.5% of the purchase price back at closing. The builder pays the same commission they were always going to pay. The difference is that now most of it goes to you.

For resale homes, the same principle applies. Sellers typically offer a buyer agent commission. We collect it and rebate 2% of the purchase price back to you at closing.

Simple Process

Three steps to thousands at closing.

01

Register Free

Complete our 2-minute registration before you visit any builder sales office or tour homes with a seller's agent. This locks in your rebate eligibility.

02

Buy Your Home

Shop for new construction or resale homes anywhere in Texas. We provide full buyer representation: contract review, negotiation, and closing coordination.

03

Keep the Money

Your rebate appears on the closing disclosure as a credit. On a $400,000 new build, that's $10,000 back, paid at the closing table.

New construction example: $400,000 home x 2.5% rebate = $10,000 back at closing.
Resale example: $350,000 home x 2% rebate = $7,000 back.

Important: Register before your first builder sales-office visit or before touring a listed home. Builders and listing agents typically require a buyer's agent to be present on the first visit to preserve the commission and your rebate.

Construction Capital of the U.S.

Texas leads the nation in new residential construction with over 7,200 permits issued monthly across Houston, Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio. Roughly 20,000 permits ahead of second-place Florida. More new homes means more builder-paid commissions, and more opportunities for buyers to use a rebate.

Post-NAR Settlement Transparency

The 2024 NAR settlement made buyer agent commissions more visible than ever. Buyers now sign written representation agreements and understand that commissions are negotiable. This transparency benefits rebate-focused brokerages: buyers who see the commission want to keep more of it.

Builder Incentives Stack

Texas builders are actively offering closing cost credits, rate buy-downs, and upgrade packages to move inventory. These incentives are separate from your commission rebate. Many Texas buyers combine $5,000-$10,000 in builder incentives with their Commission Cash Back rebate for total closing savings exceeding $15,000.

Quick Answers

Common questions Texas buyers ask.

Is a commission rebate legal in Texas?
Yes. Commission rebates are 100% legal in Texas, explicitly permitted by TREC Rule 535.147(d), and actively endorsed by the U.S. Department of Justice. Rebates are legal in 40 U.S. states, and Texas is one of the most rebate-friendly states in the country. Commission Cash Back operates under Ouray 550 LLC, a TREC-registered brokerage.
How much cash back do I get?
New construction buyers receive 2.5% of the total purchase price back at closing. Resale/pre-owned buyers receive 2% back. On a $400,000 new construction home, that's $10,000 credited directly on your closing disclosure. On a $350,000 resale home, that's $7,000 back.
Will I get less service because of the rebate?
No. You get a licensed Texas real estate broker who handles your buyer representation agreement, contract review, negotiation on pricing and upgrades, and closing coordination. Our efficiency comes from running a lean brokerage, not from reducing your service.
How is 2.5% different from competitors offering 2%?
Most rebate programs offer 1.5-2% of the purchase price. On a $400,000 home, that's $6,000-$8,000. Commission Cash Back's 2.5% new construction rebate returns $10,000 on the same home. That's $2,000-$4,000 more in your pocket, with the same level of representation.
What if I sign a buyer rep agreement and change my mind?
The NAR settlement requires buyer representation agreements before touring homes. Our agreement is straightforward and we'll walk you through every provision before you sign. If you have questions about the terms, ask them upfront. The agreement protects both parties.
Will the builder care that I'm using a rebate agent?
No. Builders set aside a commission on every home specifically to pay buyer's agents. Whether your agent keeps all of it or gives most of it back to you is between you and your agent. The builder's sales process and your pricing don't change.
How do I actually receive my rebate?
Your rebate appears as a credit on your closing disclosure. You can apply it toward closing costs, use it to buy down your mortgage interest rate, apply it toward builder upgrades (new construction), or receive the balance as cash after closing, depending on lender approval. The title company handles the disbursement.
Can I stack my rebate with builder incentives?
Yes. Builder incentives (closing cost credits, rate buy-downs, design center upgrades, appliance packages) and your Commission Cash Back rebate are completely separate. You can receive both. Many Texas buyers combine builder incentives with their commission rebate for total savings exceeding $15,000 at closing.
Which builders does Commission Cash Back work with?
Every major builder in Texas, including D.R. Horton, Perry Homes, KB Home, Meritage Homes, Taylor Morrison, Highland Homes, Pulte Homes, David Weekley Homes, Ashton Woods, Toll Brothers, M/I Homes, and Coventry Homes.
