How does locqube compare to a 6% agent?

Same MLS exposure, licensed brokerage either way — a different business model. Pick your plan.

1.99% vs 6%

Signature: a dedicated, licensed in-house agent prices, lists, markets and negotiates your sale — for 1.99% instead of 6%.

Buyer's-agent compensation is separate and negotiable in every model — you decide what, if anything, to offer.

And here's how we do it

How is 1.99% actually possible?

Fair question — most sellers don't believe it at first. The answer is structural: we reimagined how homes are sold.

Built for the homeowner, not to recruit agents

A traditional brokerage's business model is to attract agents — and the agents attract the customers. That leaves the brokerage several layers removed from you, with little control over pricing or quality. locqube is built the other way around: for the homeowner, supported by our in-house agents. Direct to you, no layers in between.

One platform does the busywork

Your entire sale happens in one place — the platform creates the listing, our AI writes the property description, the valuation runs automatically, and you see every step in real time. That transparency is the right thing to do, and it's also why there's no extra staff behind the scenes — your agent is freed up to focus on what actually needs a human: you.

The savings pass to you

AI and technology make selling a home radically more efficient — in time, in staff, in overhead. We pass those structural savings straight to the homeowner: 1.99% with a dedicated agent, or a flat $899 self-guided.

Questions, answered

Because we reimagined how homes are sold. A traditional brokerage is built to attract agents, and the agents attract the customers — leaving the brokerage layers removed from you, with little control over pricing or quality. locqube is built for the homeowner, supported by in-house agents. And because the entire sale runs through one platform — listing creation, AI property descriptions, valuation, real-time updates — there's no extra staff doing manual work behind the scenes. Those structural efficiencies are what fund the price: 1.99% with a dedicated agent, or a flat $899.
Yes. Signature includes a dedicated, licensed in-house agent who prices, lists, markets and negotiates your sale — with full MLS and portal syndication. The difference is the business model, not the service level: in-house agents and technology instead of a franchise commission split.
Self-Guided means you run your sale through the locqube platform — listing, photos, showings, offers — with the tools, dashboard and support behind you, for a flat $899 instead of a percentage. Best for owners who want control and maximum savings.
You choose a 3, 6, 9 or 12-month listing term — and either way you can cancel with 30 days' notice. Traditional brokerages usually ask for a 6 or 12-month exclusive with no easy exit.
Buyer's-agent compensation is separate and fully negotiable — that's true whether you list traditionally or with locqube. You decide what, if anything, to offer a buyer's agent. The savings above compare the listing side, which is the part you control by choosing how you list.
Habit, mostly. The percentage predates the internet — when finding a buyer meant an agent's private network. Today buyers find homes on Zillow and the MLS feeds every portal, but the fee structure never adjusted. locqube's model reprices the work that's actually left.
Yes — locqube is a licensed real estate broker in New York and Connecticut, and every locqube agent is a licensed, in-house professional (not a referral network).
