Sell Your House Without Realtor Fees in Calgary
Sell your house without realtor fees in Calgary — on a direct sale to Oliver, there is no commission because there is no agent in the middle. We’re the buyer. The offer we put in writing is the number the lawyers work from, and we cover your legal fees up to $1,200 on top of it.
What realtor fees actually cost you
On a $550,000 Calgary home, the typical Alberta commission structure — 7% on the first $100K, 3% on the balance, plus GST — runs about $21,500. Add preparation costs and the months of carrying costs while the listing sits, and the gap between sale price and money-in-your-account gets wide. See it with your own numbers in our net proceeds calculator.
Where the savings are real — and where they’re not
Here’s the honesty most “no fees” pages skip: a direct cash offer sits below top open-market price. If your home is in strong condition in a hot pocket and you have time, a listing can out-earn the commission it costs — and when your numbers say that, we’ll tell you and connect you with a licensed partner agent. The no-commission path wins most clearly when the property needs work, the timeline is tight, tenants are in place, or certainty matters more than squeezing the last dollar.
No fees, spelled out
- $0 commission — no agent, no percentage
- $0 in fees to Oliver — no admin fees, no surprise deductions at closing
- Legal fees covered up to $1,200
- $0 spent on repairs, cleaning, or staging — we buy as-is
The only costs that remain are whatever’s registered against your title — your mortgage and any arrears get paid out of proceeds at closing, like any Alberta sale.

Two minutes on the form gets a real conversation and a written offer with the math shown. Compare it against listing with commission — that comparison is the whole point.
“The offer was 10K more than some of the other companies I had contacted, so they didn't low ball me. I had a setback for the closing date due to a death in the family; John worked with the investors and pushed the closing date for another week to give me the time I needed. When I still had some stuff left to move, he even personally helped me move the last of my property!”
“I recently had the pleasure of working with the owner and couldn't be happier with the level of professionalism and efficiency in our dealings. Super friendly and super transparent across the board. Really enjoyed the process! Thank you again Anthony!”
“I live out of province and as a result there were a couple of small hiccups, but the team took care of them promptly and to my complete satisfaction. I believe we got a fair price for our house, and I would definitely recommend them!”
Straight answers
- How much do realtor fees cost on a typical Calgary sale?
- The common Alberta structure is 7% on the first $100,000 and 3% on the balance, plus GST — on a $550,000 home that's roughly $21,500. It's the single largest selling cost most homeowners pay.
- If there's no commission, how does Oliver get paid?
- We're the buyer, not your agent — nobody is charging you a percentage. The offer we agree on is the number the lawyers work from, and Oliver covers your legal fees up to $1,200 on top.
- Is a no-commission sale always the better deal?
- No, and we'll tell you when it isn't. A listing's higher sale price sometimes outruns the commission it costs. The honest comparison is net-to-net — run yours in our calculator or ask for the side-by-side.
- What about selling privately myself, with no buyer like Oliver?
- For-sale-by-owner avoids commission too, but you take on pricing, marketing, showings, negotiating, and buyer financing risk yourself — and private buyers routinely discount harder than the commission you saved. It works for some sellers; most find the savings evaporate.
