<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More than 200,000 people have used Clever Real Estate to buy or sell a home, and the reviews speak for themselves. Across Trustpilot, Google, and the Better Business Bureau, Clever holds a <strong>4.9 out of 5 rating<\/strong> from more than 4,400 verified reviews, with 99% of customers reporting a positive experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What makes Clever different? You get a full-service agent from a top brokerage like Keller Williams, RE\/MAX, or Coldwell Banker, but you pay a <strong>1.5% listing fee<\/strong> instead of the typical 2.5\u20133%. On a $400,000 sale, that's roughly <strong>$4,000\u2013$6,000 back in your pocket<\/strong>. No cut corners. No discount service. Just a smarter commission structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Clever has helped customers save more than <strong>$220 million in commission fees<\/strong> since 2017.
