Aalto’s performance-based fee is 1% of the home's purchase price.

You determine the buy-side commission you will offer (typically 2.5%) to an outside buyer's agent or broker which makes the total fee 3.5%.

If Aalto represents the buyer purchasing your home, you’ll only pay a total 2% fee.

Additionally, Aalto rebates .05% of that to the buyer as an incentive.

Aalto is built to give sellers flexibility, so you have complete control over who sees your home at any time. Either share your home widely with all Aalto users or keep it hidden while you build out your profile.
