About Us
Clear information for Irish home sellers
We help Irish homeowners compare estate agent fees, understand how commission works, and explore fixed fee and online selling options.
Why this guide exists
Most people sell a home once or twice in a lifetime, while estate agents price their services every day. That asymmetry makes a quote hard to judge: is 1.5% commission good value, what exactly does a fixed fee buy, and where do VAT and marketing charges fit in?
This site pulls those numbers into the open. Work through the guides, run your own figures through the calculators, and arrive at any agent conversation knowing the questions to ask and the totals to compare.
What you will find here
- A fee calculator comparing percentage commission and fixed-fee models, VAT included.
- A step-by-step selling guide, from valuation through to sale agreed.
- A side-by-side look at how online and traditional agents handle the same sale.
- Straight answers to the questions sellers ask most, from portal listings to viewings.
