Thinking about selling your Calgary home in 2026 but worried about high real estate commissions? Many homeowners feel the same way, especially when traditional commission rates can take a significant chunk out of hard-earned equity. That’s why more sellers are choosing to work with a low commission Realtor in Calgary.

At 2% Realty Calgary, we focus on providing full-service representation at a fair, transparent rate. Our goal is simple: help you sell your home with the same level of care and professionalism as any traditional brokerage, while allowing you to keep more of your equity.

What Is a Low Commission Realtor®?

A low commission realtor in Calgary offers full real estate services but at a reduced commission rate. At 2% Realty Calgary, our brokerage provides:

• 100% Real Estate Agent Services
• 100% REALTOR.ca Exposure
• 2% Commission

This commission structure allows Calgary sellers to save thousands compared to traditional models, while buyers still see your home on MLS and REALTOR.ca exactly the same way as any listing from a full-commission brokerage. Your property competes on equal footing with every other home for sale in Calgary.

Why Calgary Sellers Choose a Low Commission Realtor® in 2026

The Calgary real estate market has evolved. Most buyers now begin their search online, and homes are discovered through REALTOR.ca and other digital platforms long before an agent is contacted. With higher living costs and more informed sellers, many homeowners are rethinking whether traditional commission structures still make sense for the level of exposure and service they receive.

Whether you are selling in Walden, Mahogany, or the inner city, the goal is the same: achieve a strong sale price while keeping more of what you have built.

1. Save on Commission Fees

Selling a home for $500,000 with a traditional commission* could cost you $19,000 in fees. With 2% Realty Calgary, the same home sale could cost just $10,000 in commission, saving you $9,000.

*Traditional commission is calculated as 7% on the first $100,000 and 3% on the remaining balance of the sale price.

2. Full-Service Real Estate Expertise

Many assume reduced commission means fewer services, but that’s far from the truth. At SellSmartCalgary.ca, sellers benefit from:

• Professional photography and marketing
• MLS® listings for maximum exposure
• Expert negotiation to secure the best price
• Step-by-step guidance throughout the selling process

3. Transparency and Trust

Our goal is to make the home-selling process as smooth and straightforward as possible. With 2% Realty Calgary, there are no hidden fees—just honest, high-quality service at a fair price.

How Much Can You Save?

Savings depend on the final sale price and commission agreements. Commissions are always negotiable.
