In her 8 years with One Percent Realty, Nari Thiara estimates she’s managed to save her clients over $1.2 million.

“It’s been eye-opening,” says the Richmond agent. “We’re really changing the way homes are sold.”

In working with One Percent Realty, Nari doesn’t charge a high commission on the sale of her client’s homes—and that’s where the savings lie.

Most real estate agents charge about 7% on the first $100,000 and 2.5% on the balance, says Nari. One Percent Realty sees itself as a full-service discount real estate company that eliminates this high commission.

According to Nari, a $1,000,000 home sold through One Percent Realty provides the seller with anywhere between $15,000 and $20,000 in savings.

“I had a client who came back to me afterwards and told me she bought a car with her savings,” says Nari. “She had saved $15,000 working with me. People can use their savings for anything, even towards a college fund for their kids.”

One Richmond couple who saved $12,300 with Nari, used their savings for their retirement fund. Others have saved over $30,000.

“The savings are immense,” says Nari. “On average, they’re in the $15,000 to $20,000 range, but there’ve been a few that are much more than that. One client saved $34,400.”

When meeting with people interested in selling their home, Nari begins by debriefing them on her process and helps them establish a suitable asking price. She then plans open houses, advertises the listing, and handles all the showings.
