What is a Commission Advance?
A Commission Advance is a financial transaction where a real estate agent sells a portion of their pending commission at a discount, in exchange for immediate cash.
It is not a loan, but a service that allows agents to monetize a transaction without waiting until closing.
For Agents
Should I apply for a Commission Advance?
Why wait until closing to get paid your commission?
We purchase your commission at a reasonable discount, allowing you to convert your future receivables in to cash today. A commission advance is a cash flow service giving you early access to your commission so you can focus on building your business.
With Concord’s low price guarantee and the tax deductibility* of your commission advance this service is more affordable than most realize!
