Real estate help that's actually on your side.

Common Realtor is the unbiased way to find a real estate agent — a matching engine that pairs buyers and sellers with licence-verified local agents on verified results and real fit, never on who paid to rank. We're building it to become the #1 unbiased agent directory in the world.

Our mission

The most trusted brand in real estate.

We're building the most trusted brand in real estate — one that simplifies a congested industry with integrity and service, and gives back to the housing crisis it sits closest to — so agents keep what they earn, families get an agent they can trust, and the whole process finally gets simple.

Why we exist

Choosing an agent shouldn't be a coin toss.

A great local agent changes everything about buying or selling a home — but finding one is opaque. The biggest names online are usually the ones who paid the most to be there, not the ones best for you. Meanwhile the platforms in the middle tax the very agents you'd hire, taking 25–40% of their commission to resell your details to five others. We're built by agents, for agents, to end that.

Our answer

Licence-verified local agents, matched fairly.

We verify every agent's licence before they can appear, then match each buyer and seller on fit and verified track record. Your request goes to the agents matched to you and nowhere else — you won't get a pool of a dozen names calling at once, because we don't resell your details to anybody.

How it works

Three steps.
No cost, no catch.

Getting matched takes about a minute, and you're never locked into anything.

Step one

Tell us what you need

Buying or selling, your area, budget and timeline. A few quick questions — no account required to start.

Step two

We match you with a licence-verified local agent

A licensed agent who works your market, chosen on fit and track record — not by who paid us the most.

Step three

Work with the one you click with

Talk it through. If it fits, keep going — free to you. If it doesn't, tell us and we'll introduce someone else.

In one line

A conversation, not a call center.

Your request goes to the agents matched to you and nowhere else. You won't get a pool of a dozen names calling at once, because we never sell your details on. If the first match isn't right, tell us and we'll introduce someone else.

Our values

Integrity, trust, and service.

We run this company on integrity, trust, and service. We say what's true — including the catch, because there isn't one. We never sell placement and never resell your trust. And we hold ourselves to that standard even when it costs us a dollar.

Our foundation

A note from our founder

I'll be honest about where Common Realtor comes from. I'm a Christian, and my faith is the reason we run it the way we do — plainly and honestly, in a way that actually puts people first in an industry that usually doesn't. That's why agents keep all of their commission, why nobody can pay their way to the top of your results, and why I'd rather tell you the truth than sell you a better-sounding version of it. It's the same reason we give 1% of our profits to affordable housing and homelessness relief. We built this to work for everyone who uses it, and I intend to keep it that way.

— Founder & CEO, Common Realtor

How we make money

A software company, not a lead vendor.

We're a SaaS company, not a lead vendor. We earn on optional software agents choose to buy and on settlement services consumers opt into — not on the agent's commission. "Free" isn't a gimmick; it's what integrity looks like in an industry that taxes the people it serves.

The 1% Pledge

1% of our profits go back to housing.

We give 1% of our profits to help provide affordable housing and support people experiencing homelessness across the United States. We're a real estate company — it would be hollow to build a business on housing and turn away from the people locked out of it. So we give back to the exact problem our industry sits closest to.

What we hold to

Built around fairness, not ad budgets

These aren't features we bolted on — they're the whole reason the platform exists.

Matching

Unbiased by design

We score every agent covering your area on proximity, verified closed deals, review rating and price band.

  • Placement can't be bought
  • Your details go to your matches only
  • No lead resale, ever
Verification

Licence-checked before they appear

Every agent's licence is checked against their state register before their profile can go live — and re-checked after.

  • Checked against the state register
  • Profiles come down when a licence lapses
  • CR Certified is editorial, not for sale
Cost

Free, with no obligation

Buyers and sellers pay nothing to get matched, tour homes, or work with an agent through us.

  • No cut of your transaction
  • No referral fee
  • Nothing to cancel
Local

Local means local

We build the network market by market, because real estate is decided street by street.

  • Agents who work your neighborhoods
  • Thin-comp markets included
  • Built out market by market
