How it works

From address to offer, in one sitting

You bring the home you love. We handle the paperwork, compliance, and delivery — every offer is reviewed by a licensed California agent before it goes out.

01

Find your home

Enter the address or MLS number. We pull the listing details and the listing agent's contact information straight from CRMLS.

02

Build your offer

A guided, five-step wizard walks you through price, financing, contingencies, and timelines — in plain English, mapped to the C.A.R. purchase agreement.

03

We review & deliver

Your licensed agent reviews every term, prepares the official forms for e-signature, and delivers your offer to the listing agent.

Why negotiable commission?

You did the searching. Let’s talk about your commission.

Many buyers find their own home online. At Hippo Realty, buyer agent commission is negotiable based on your needs and the services involved, while submitting an offer remains free. We agree on compensation in writing before proceeding and can request payment from the seller. Any savings depend on the agreed terms, not a fixed rate.

  • Free offer submission — no upfront or hidden fees
  • Negotiable buyer agent commission; seller payment subject to agreement
  • Licensed California agent reviews every offer
  • Official C.A.R. forms, signed electronically
“The commission conversation has changed. Buyers who come prepared deserve to keep more of their money at the closing table.”
