Unlocking Solutions: Mediation for Commission Disputes

As the real estate market evolves, the complexity of transactions increases, and with it, so does the potential for disputes. While our mediation program has long been a trusted resource for resolving buyer-seller disputes, our mediators are trained to help navigate all real estate related disputes, including commission disputes.

Why Choose Mediation for Commission Disputes?

Specialized Expertise & Neutral Mediators

One of the key benefits of using our mediation program is the specialized training of our mediators. Our panel consists of mediators who are not only neutral third parties but are also trained in common disputes arising from C.A.R. contracts and real estate transactions. This depth of knowledge enables them to understand the intricacies of commission structures, fiduciary duties, and the contractual obligations that can often be at the heart of REALTOR®-client disagreements.

Our mediators focus on helping both parties reach a mutually agreeable outcome. Our mediators are skilled at identifying common ground and facilitating conversations designed to lead to compromise, making them invaluable assets in any real estate-related dispute. Our mediator panel includes attorneys, REALTORS®, and those who are both an attorney and a REALTOR®. We can work with you to select the right mediator to handle your dispute.

Cost-Effective & Faster Resolution

Litigation can be expensive, with legal fees piling up and court dates only available in the distant future. Mediation, on the other hand, offers a much faster and more affordable alternative. By fostering open dialogue and facilitating negotiation, our mediators help both parties reach a settlement more quickly, allowing REALTORS® to return to business and clients to move forward in life.

Confidentiality

Unlike court cases that become part of public record, mediations are private and confidential. This allows the parties to discuss their issues candidly without concern that their discussions will be used against them as evidence in a court if the matter is unresolved in mediation.

Maintaining Relationships

The nature of the real estate industry often means that REALTORS® and clients may need to work together and live in the same community after a dispute arises. Mediation encourages constructive communication, enabling both sides to resolve issues while preserving a professional relationship.

Take Control of Your Dispute

If you’re facing a commission dispute, our mediation program provides the support needed to resolve issues efficiently. Our focus on expert neutral support, confidentiality and speed ensures that both parties can settle their differences without the stress, cost, and time commitment of a courtroom battle.
