As a buyer, are you working with an agent? No problem!
At YELLOW, we're committed to getting the most exposure for sellers. We leave it up to their discretion, however, if they wish to offer compensation to a buyer's agent.
COMMISSIONS
If a seller is offering a commission, the fee they are willing to pay will be stated at the top of their listing page along with a commission agreement form.
That doesn't mean buyer's agents are unable to receive compensation if the seller is unwilling to pay. We encourage buyer's agents to contact the seller directly for compensation or request compensation from the buyer for their services.
YELLOW DOES THE WORK
YELLOW makes it easy for buyer's agents since we've already done the heavy lifting. We provide the forms, assistance, a price estimate, an inspection, and the ability to visit a property. That's a lot of work we save for the agents.
We are happy to include buyer's agents in the process and will work to ensure a fair outcome for all parties.

From our yellow-colored 'FOR SALE' sign. The color yellow was intentionally chosen as it is the most visible color of all colors and it's the first color the eye sees.
The map automatically centers on your current location and since we're still a young company, it's likely that there are no properties in that area. Try zooming out to see more properties or you can also search for homes in the search bar on the left.
Try clicking the "Save this search" box to automatically open to your search criteria in the future.
Yes! In order for a home to appear on sites like Realtor.com or Zillow, the home must be in the MLS. Your home reaches a broad audience by listing with YELLOW.
It is possible to list your home on Zillow as a FSBO, but it has drawbacks. Your listing doesn't appear on the main search map and Realtors will contact you frequently to try to get you to list with them.
Of course! There’s always a way to get in touch with us. Phone, email, text, video chat - we offer it all. See our CONTACT section.
This is for the safety of the home sellers. We need to know you are who you say you are.
Sellers will be opening their home for strangers to visit, so it makes sense to know exactly who is visiting. If something were to happen, we will know who was in the home at what time.
Like the question above, this is for the safety of our home sellers. We need to know you are who you say you are.
This is for the benefit of our home sellers, as it indicates you are a qualified buyer.
The seller may have their home listed for a price above what you are qualified for and it wouldn’t make sense for either side to proceed (we do recommend sellers be open to buyers who are approved near their listing price, but this level is set at the discretion of the seller).
We’ve taken steps to verify the person is who they say they are, has a safe background, and is qualified to visit a property. We also know the time the home was entered.
Even with an agent present, no home is ever completely safe during visits. We encourage sellers to call their local law enforcement if something is amiss after a visit, and we can provide the name and time of your visitors.
This is a relevant question in the era of internet frauds. We take steps to verify the person’s identity and their legal ownership of the property. We believe every home listed on YELLOW is legally able to be sold by the home’s owner. Please notify us of any homes you find suspicious.
