Question 1

Is a buyer rebate legal in Colorado?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Buyer commission rebates are legal in Colorado and encouraged by the U.S. Department of Justice to increase competition.

Question 2

Do I still get full representation?

Accepted Answer

Yes — showings, offers, negotiation, inspection, and closing. Same expert representation as a traditional buyer's agent.

Question 3

How do I actually receive the money?

Accepted Answer

It appears as a credit on your settlement statement at closing, subject to lender approval when you're financing.

Question 4

Is the rebate taxable?

Accepted Answer

Generally no — because it's a credit on your settlement statement, not income. This is not tax advice; consult an accountant for your situation.

Question 5

Does this work for new construction?

Accepted Answer

Often yes — the builder pays a buyer-agent commission we can split with you. Contact us before your first visit for the rebate to apply.

Question 6

Do I have to use a specific lender?

Accepted Answer

No. You can use any qualified lender you choose.

Question 7

Who will I work with?

Accepted Answer

Lex Campaldini directly, start to finish. No call center, no hand-offs.

Question 8

Can you help me sell too?

Accepted Answer

Yes — 1% listing service, often partially offset by your buy-side rebate.

Question 9

What's the catch? Is there a minimum?

Accepted Answer

No catch. A $7,500 minimum commission on resale ($5,000 on new construction) keeps the model sustainable — everything above that gets split 50/50 with you.

Question 10

What areas do you serve?

Accepted Answer

Denver metro, Boulder, and the Front Range.
