Buying and selling an apartment, house, land or other real estate without the support of a lawyer is simply impractical. The law has a lot of nuances that should be taken into account; all the little things (which in fact turn out to be important) must be reflected in the contract.

Most citizens choose an easier scheme and trust an outside realtor or developer. However, none of these parties can guarantee that the promises will be fulfilled and that in a couple of years you will not be left without a roof over your head. If you decide to purchase a property that is under construction, you cannot do without legal assistance. Often people save on the services of specialists, not realizing that if problems arise in the future, they will have to pay much more.

It’s better to play it safe and order legal support for real estate transactions from a trusted law firm: ask friends, look at reviews, find a firm with extensive legal experience. This way you create safe and profitable conditions for yourself - the amounts invested in construction will not be lost, and you will not be left without housing.

What is the salary of Russian realtors?

There is no clearly established amount of earnings for realtors in Russian legislation. There are a large number of nuances that affect their income. Among them, you can indicate the economic situation in the country, the state of affairs on the real estate market and much more. It is impossible to accurately calculate the level of earnings of realtors, since they receive commission interest, which forms the basis of their profit.

On a note! Salary payments occur after each completed transaction and may vary.

A real estate agency can receive about 4-6%, sometimes up to 15% of the price of the property. From here they calculate 30-50%, which they pay to the realtor, thanks to whom the client was found.

Average salary

It is clear that agencies in the capital offer much more attractive salaries. Therefore, all qualified realtors who successfully carry out a large number of transactions per month tend to Moscow. In the regions, the same amount may be an order of magnitude lower. The situation is slightly more attractive in the southern regions, such as the Krasnodar Territory, the Caucasus and Crimea. In the Krasnodar region, especially when it comes to real estate by the sea, housing prices are quite high, so realtors can count on a significant percentage of sales.

Depending on the initial cost of the apartment, a realtor can receive from 100 to 300 thousand rubles for each closed transaction in Moscow. He can close just 1 such deal or even several in a month. Sometimes, if circumstances are unfortunate or a person does not have the proper level of qualifications, there may be no transactions at all for a whole month. An agency that works with luxury properties hires the most qualified realtors who know how to work with wealthy buyers. In this case, you can earn more than millions in a month by selling your home. In the regions, a closed transaction brings the realtor on average about 50-80 thousand rubles.

For reference! In the province, realtors from Khabarovsk earn the most. Their salaries can be up to half a million a month.

Realtors from St. Petersburg also have good rates. Here a specialist can receive about 200-300 thousand rubles every month. What are the average earnings in other cities:

• Tyumen - from 30 to 1500 thousand rubles;
• Sochi - from 50 to 180 thousand rubles;
• Ekaterinburg - from 40 to 60 thousand rubles;
• Omsk from 15 to 100 thousand rubles;
• Rostov-on-Don - from 25 to 200 thousand rubles;
• Novosibirsk - from 25 to 200 thousand rubles.

This is interesting! The record holders for the lowest salaries for realtors are cities such as Belgorod, Penza and Orenburg. Here, according to average data, the salary of a housing sales agent is 25-70 thousand rubles.

Lawyer VS realtor

A realtor is a person who represents the interests of his hired party. The goal of such a specialist is to sell real estate to interested buyers and receive a commission based on the results of the transaction. Naturally, the realtor is aimed at a profitable quick sale. Getting money is paramount, but the quality of the property may not meet the buyer's needs, and legal risks will not be taken into account.

A lawyer to support real estate transactions will protect you from unpleasant situations and monitor the quality of the property in terms of legal purity and its safety. Housing encumbered with debts, apartments in collateral and mortgaged property - a specialist will find out what the disadvantages are, and you will know what you are signing up for. There are cases from judicial practice when a third party can freely take away what appears to be legally purchased housing.

The lawyer is interested in the deal being strong and without defects. The lawyer bears human and professional responsibility for the purity of the transaction. The main thing is that law firms will always help you check documents, something that a realtor is not competent to do. As a result, problems with housing may emerge at the most unexpected moment.

How much do realtor services cost in St. Petersburg?

—The cost of a realtor’s work depends on the complexity of the transaction structure, the price segment of the property, and the terms of the agreement between the owner and the agency. On average in St. Petersburg, realtor services amount to 4-5% of the sale price.

Deputy General Director of the Nevsky Alliance Group of Companies (member of ARSP) Yuri Polishchuk also says that tariffs for realtor services depend on what kind of service is provided to the client. And, of course, on the cost of real estate.

—The lower the cost of housing, the higher the commission percentage. The higher the cost, the lower the percentage. Of course, there are exceptions. For example, one of the most difficult sales is selling a room. The cheaper the room, the harder it is to sell it

, because the cost of the room, as a rule, directly depends on the conditions of sale. Most likely, the cheap room is a former hostel or a room in a densely populated apartment. An experienced realtor understands that there will be a lot of work,” the expert comments.

In addition, the percentage depends on the exclusivity of the rights to sell real estate, adds Yuri Polishchuk.

Managing Director of the NAI Becar Residential Real Estate Department Katerina Soboleva notes that tariffs for realtor services depend largely on the volume of services that the client needs. This includes: collection of documents, professional expert negotiator, display of the object, services for advertising the object, “packaging”, development of promotion concepts and advertising campaigns, support of the payment scheme between the buyer and the seller.

—On average, a realtor’s services for a seller will be 4%

of the cost of the apartment, for the buyer – 2%. Moreover, the higher the class of housing, the lower the percentage will be,” the expert adds.

When a client receives a discount

Since the price of services is individual in each specific case, it is not possible to use the concept of “discount” itself. After all, in essence, this is a discount from a specific fixed cost, notes Elena Ledovskaya.

However, you can still get a discount from a real estate agency. For example, when contacting again (but the client and the realtor must agree on this individually). And also - if the client performs part of the work independently, as an option, he carries out showings of the object.

—The client can receive a discount if he enters into an agreement with a real estate agency for both the sale and purchase of objects. In this case, in total, instead of 6%, he will pay 4-5%, says Katerina Soboleva.

In addition, the cost of real estate can lead to a discount for the client. When a client deals with a liquid and expensive object, he will receive a discount on the commission. The exclusivity of the option in terms of location is also a reason to get a discount.

—An apartment, relatively speaking, with a view of the Neva, historical monuments, or in the “Golden Triangle” is a unique object

, he always pleases an experienced realtor with the opportunity to sell it. Thus, the more interesting the property, the more willing the realtor is to give a discount,” shares Yuri Polishchuk.

In addition, realtors love it when a client comes through a recommendation. And in this case they also provide a discount. Thus, in Nevsky Alliance, upon recommendation, a client automatically receives a 1% discount.
