2. It was always unfair that the seller had to pay the buyers broker 3% and that is why the law has changed. There is actually a website you can complete some forms online and get that 3% back, or some of it through this class action lawsuit. I have completed this form to see if I qualify to get some of the commission I have paid to buyers agents. just google real estate class action lawsuit and it should pop up.always been this way!

I googled this and read that this applies to sales as far back as ten years ago, in Florida at least. If this is true it wouldn't work for us because the houses we sold were prior to 2014.
