Is the Commission Savings Real?
Upfront fees
Selling through DuProprio: packages starting at $1,149+ payable before the sale, even if your property doesn’t sell.
Limited visibility
Without Centris access, your property is not visible to buyers represented by a broker (the majority of qualified buyers in Quebec).
Negotiation is on you
Negotiation is your responsibility: without experience, buyers often obtain price reductions during the inspection.
“The real question isn’t how much you save on commission — it’s what price you sell for in the end.”
