On top of that, the [2024 NAR settlement](https://blog.usebramble.com/post/how-nar-settlement-affects-home-buyers?utm_source=yc\u0026utm_medium=post\u0026utm_campaign=yc_launch) means that buyers are now fully exposed to that fee. As they look for cheaper alternatives, buyers are finding this means compromising on service or quality.\n\n![uploaded image](/media/?type=post\u0026id=84508\u0026key=user_uploads/950535/fd500ac9-92b1-4e2a-adbc-97087bfce021)\n\n**The Solution: buy any home with our AI-backed full-service broker for one flat fee**\n\nSchedule tours, analyze properties, draft offers, and close right on platform, with responsive, on-demand agent support whenever you need it — all for a simple flat fee.
