Buyer Cashback FAQ

Common Questions About Buyer Cashback

Get clear answers about how buyer cashback works, when it is applied, and what may affect your final credit at closing.

How does buyer cashback work?

When Trimark Realty represents you as your buyer's agent, a portion of our earned commission may be credited back to you at closing when the transaction qualifies. The exact amount depends on the purchase price, buyer-agent commission offered, lender approval, escrow instructions, and contract terms.

When do I receive my cashback?

You typically receive your cashback at closing through escrow, often as a credit toward closing costs or another lender-approved method. We'll review the available options with you before closing so you know how the credit will be applied.

Do I have to pay a buyer-agent commission out of pocket?

In many transactions, the buyer-agent commission may be paid through the transaction, but this can vary by property and agreement. If a seller does not offer a buyer-agent commission, we'll review your options with you before you make an offer so there are no surprises.

What can affect the final cashback amount?

Your final cashback may depend on the purchase price, buyer-agent commission offered, lender approval, loan program rules, escrow instructions, and any limits in the purchase agreement. The calculator is only an estimate.

Is there a limit to how much cashback I can receive?

There is no preset limit from Trimark Realty, but the final amount may be limited by your lender, loan program, closing costs, or transaction terms. We'll help confirm what is allowed before closing.

Can I use the cashback for my down payment?

In most cases, buyer cashback is applied as a closing cost credit or another lender-approved credit. Whether it can be applied toward your down payment depends on your lender and loan program. We'll coordinate with your lender early so the credit is handled correctly.

Does buyer cashback affect my mortgage terms or appraisal?

The cashback itself usually should not affect the appraised value, but it must be properly disclosed and approved by your lender. Your lender will determine how the credit can be applied based on your loan program and closing costs.

What happens if the transaction falls through?

Because the cashback is tied to a successful closing, it typically does not apply if the purchase does not close. Any specific terms will be outlined in your buyer representation agreement and transaction documents.

Can I still get cashback if I buy a new construction home?

Possibly. Many builders require your agent to register with you during your first visit or before you contact the sales office. If you're considering new construction, contact us before visiting the community so we can help protect your representation and confirm whether cashback may be available.
