New Buyers Agent Rules Start August 16

The new rule is part of a settlement agreement that was granted preliminary approval in April 2024 and is subject to final court approval on November 26, 2024. And it leaves many with a lot of questions.

It will prohibit real estate agents in Texas from communicating buyer’s agent commissions through the MLS. This includes any language or fields related to broker compensation in the MLS, even in agent remarks. However, the rule does not prevent sellers from paying buyer’s agents, or listing agents from communicating compensation offers outside of the MLS.

This means that the seller maintains complete control over whether the buyer’s agent gets paid.  However, it cannot be advertised in the MLS.  And it means buyers agents must clearly detail their compensation in a written representation agreement upfront. The buyer has the option of trying to work without an agent representing him or her.  But without a buyers agent, homebuyers need to be aware that they have no one representing their best interest. 

Most agents contend that they will continue to transact with the similar fee structure they have been using.  In the case where the seller is offering no or reduced commission, buyers will have to decide if they wish to see properties and are willing to pay their agent themselves. Any portion of the compensation per the buyer’s representation agreement that is not offered by the seller will be the responsibility of the buyer.
