What makes Allode different?
We won't actively send you listings that meet your criteria. It is up to the buyer to find the home they like, and we'll take it from there.
We automate most of the tedious work that agents usually do by hand: writing offers, reviewing disclosures, and scheduling showings. There will always be a licensed agent that will review your offer and ensure you know what to look out for.
Whereas most agents spend thousands on marketing, we operate primarily on word of mouth. This helps us pass on the savings to our buyers.
Frequently asked questions
The $5,000 flat fee covers full buyer representation: disclosures, tours, offers, negotiations, manage inspections and contingencies, and guide you to closing. You keep any commission offered by the seller minus our flat fee. There are no hidden fees or surprises.
The flat fee is taken out of the commission offered by the seller. Then we send you the rest of the commission as a check 5-7 days after closing.
We currently serve homebuyers in the state of Washington and California.
Allode currently focuses on representing buyers only.
By default, the rebate will be delivered as a check 5-7 days after closing. The reason we don’t apply it as credit is because it reduces your options for negotiations, and potentially messes with the lender’s underwriting calculations. If needed, we can apply it as credit or closing costs only after negotiations are done.
No, the rebate is not taxable, per an IRS ruling here. You may spend it as freely as you wish.
