America's largest homebuilder, headquartered right here in Texas with more communities than any other builder in the state.
D.R. Horton typically offers 3% buyer agent commission across their Texas communities, though this can vary by community and product line. They require agent registration on your first visit to any sales center or model home. This is non-negotiable — if you walk in without an agent on file, you may permanently lose your rebate eligibility at that community. With Commission Cash Back's 70% rebate, you keep the majority of that commission. On a $400,000 D.R. Horton home, that's up to $8,400 back. D.R. Horton is currently exploring buyer allowance models in some markets, so commission structures may shift — register early to lock in your representation.
D.R. Horton builds across four distinct product lines in Texas. Express Homes ($200K–$300K) target first-time buyers with efficient floor plans. D.R. Horton ($250K–$500K) is their core line with family-friendly layouts. Freedom Homes ($300K–$500K) cater to 55+ buyers with single-story designs and low-maintenance living. Emerald Homes ($400K–$700K+) are their premium line with upgraded finishes, larger lots, and architectural details. This range means virtually every Texas buyer can find a D.R. Horton product that fits their budget — and every product line qualifies for your Commission Cash Back rebate.

Common questions about getting cash back on your D.R. Horton purchase.
Your rebate depends on the home's purchase price and D.R. Horton's 3% commission structure. For a $250K Express home, you save $5,250; a $400K Freedom Series home yields $8,400; and a $600K Emerald luxury home returns $12,600. These calculations use the standard formula: home price × 3% commission × 70% rebate. After Commission Cash Back retains a minimum of $750, you receive the remainder at closing.
D.R. Horton's sales process requires buyer agent registration on the first community visit. If you're not yet registered with Commission Cash Back, the builder may register you directly—and you'd lose rebate eligibility. By registering with us first, we preserve your contract protections, ensure accurate commission accounting, and secure your 70% rebate whether you're viewing Express, Freedom, core, or Emerald homes.
Yes. Commission rebates are fully legal in Texas and represent standard real estate practice nationwide. The U.S. Department of Justice has affirmed that commission rebates do not violate antitrust law. D.R. Horton, like all builders, must honor the buyer agent commission structure agreed upon in their sales agreements. Commission Cash Back simply returns a percentage of that legitimate commission directly to you at closing.
Commission Cash Back represents your interests throughout your D.R. Horton purchase. We review your purchase contract for hidden fees, lot premiums, and builder upgrades. We verify D.R. Horton's 3% commission is applied correctly to your Express, Freedom, core D.R. Horton, or Emerald home. At closing, we ensure your 70% rebate is credited on your HUD-1 or Closing Disclosure. Our role is independent of the builder—we work solely for you.
Absolutely. Your D.R. Horton rebate appears as a credit at closing and can be applied flexibly—toward your down payment, closing costs, builder upgrades, or taken as a cash credit. Many buyers use their rebate to lower their overall out-of-pocket expense at closing or invest in premium finishes within their chosen D.R. Horton product line. The choice is entirely yours.
Yes! Commission rebates apply to every D.R. Horton product line, including Express Homes. Express homes ($200K–$300K) still generate the standard 3% commission and are fully eligible for your 70% rebate. For example, a $260K Express home in Killeen yields a $5,460 rebate. Many first-time buyers love Express homes precisely because they combine affordability with full rebate benefits—it's a smart way to build equity with thousands back at closing.
