How much will it cost me to sell my property? Who actually pays the real estate agent? Why does commission matter when I'm buying a home? If these questions have crossed your mind, you're not alone. Many Malaysians feel confused about real estate commissions. It is one of the most misunderstood aspects of property transactions. Whether you're a first-time seller wondering why you need to pay up to 3% to an agency, a buyer concerned about how commissions affect property prices, or someone considering a career in real estate, understanding commission structures is absolutely critical. Without this knowledge, you might: Negotiate poorly because you don't know what's fair Miss out on significant savings by not knowing commission rates are negotiable Overpay for properties because commission costs are built into asking prices Start a real estate career with unrealistic expectations about earnings The good news? This comprehensive guide answers every question you might have. By the time you finish reading, you'll understand exactly how commission works for subsale, new launch, and rental transactions, who pays it, how it's split under Rule 91(2), VALUERS, APPRAISERS AND ESTATE AGENTS RULES 1986 (P.U.(A) 64/1986), and most importantly, how to use this knowledge to make smarter real estate decisions. TL;DR- Commission rates in Malaysia go up to a maximum of 3% of the purchase price for subsale properties- Project properties (new launches) offer 1% to 10% commission, depending on the agency agreement with the developer- Sellers pay the commission for subsale properties, not buyers. It is deducted from the final sale proceeds- Under Rule 91(2), VALUERS, APPRAISERS AND ESTATE AGENTS RULES 1986 (P.U.(A) 64/1986), the individual agent may receive up to 40% of the professional fee, with the agency retaining 60%- Commission rates are negotiable, especially for high-value properties or in favourable market conditions- Real estate can be a lucrative career with uncapped earning potential through commission-based incomeDisclaimer: This is not an actual calculation. Situations may vary across different agencies. Your commission shall eventually be based on your agency arrangement. Understanding Commission Structure for Real Estate Agent in MalaysiaHow Much Commission Do Real Estate Agents Earn in Malaysia?Commission Breakdown: Who Gets What?What is a New Launch (Project Property)?Ready to Start Your Real Estate Journey?Frequently Asked QuestionsFinal Thoughts How Much Commission Do Real Estate Agents Earn in Malaysia? The commission rate for real estate agents in Malaysia can go up to a maximum of 3% of the property's selling price for subsale properties. Most transactions fall within the 2% to 3% range. Let's break this down with some practical examples: Example 1: Property Sold at RM 400,000 At 2% commission rate: RM 8,000 total commission At 3% commission rate: RM 12,000 total commission Example 2: Property Sold at RM 750,000 At 2% commission rate: RM 15,000 total commission At 3% commission rate: RM 22,500 total commission The exact commission rate can vary depending on several factors, including the real estate agency, the location of the property, the property type (residential, commercial, industrial), and market conditions in your area. Learn more about Real Estate Marketing Strategies that help justify commission costs through effective property promotion. Some agencies might offer lower rates for premium properties or high-value transactions. Always ask about the commission rate before listing your property or signing any agreement. Agency to Agent Distribution: Refer: Rule 91(2), VALUERS, APPRAISERS AND ESTATE AGENTS RULES 1986 (P.U.(A) 64/1986), a registered estate agent may pay a commission to a staff member under their control or supervision. However, the agent's share must not exceed 40% of the professional fee in a particular transaction. This means the standard split works as follows: The agency retains at least 60% of the professional fee to cover operations, marketing, technology, and compliance The individual agent receives up to 40% of the professional fee The exact percentage depends on your agency arrangement, experience level, and performance tier At IQI Global and Juwai IQI, we offer competitive commission arrangements to our agents based on their experience and performance, which encourages high-quality service for buyers and sellers alike. Interested in a career in real estate? Explore our real estate agent career opportunities. any agreement. Commission Breakdown: Who Gets What? Let's use a real-world Malaysian scenario to show exactly how commission flows: Scenario: A property is sold for RM 600,000 with a 2.5% commission rate Total Commission equals RM 15,000 Assuming equal 50/50 split between selling and buying sides: Seller's Agency receives: RM 7,500 Buyer's Agency receives: RM 7,500 Within Seller's Agency, applying the Rule 91(2), VALUERS, APPRAISERS AND ESTATE AGENTS RULES 1986 (P.U.(A) 64/1986) up to 40% to the agent: Listing Agent earns: RM 3,000 (40% of RM 7,500) Agency retains: RM 4,500 (60%) for operations, marketing, technology, and training Within Buyer's Agency, assuming a similar arrangement: Buying Agent earns: RM 3,000 Agency retains: RM 4,500 From this RM 15,000 commission, the actual agents split RM 6,000 combined, while the two agencies retain RM 9,000 to cover their overhead costs, marketing budgets, technology platforms, and staff support. Disclaimer: This is not an actual calculation. Situations may vary across different agencies. Your commission shall eventually be based on your agency arrangement. What is a New Launch (Project Property)? A new launch is a property that has never been sold before and is released directly by the developer. This includes brand new residential projects, commercial units, or any property being sold for the first time by the developer. New launches are often pre-completion or off-plan sales. New Launch Commission Structure: Commission rates range from 1% to 10% of the property price The exact rate depends on your agency's agreement with the developer Usually paid by the developer to the agent or agency that brings the buyer Buyer does not pay commission directly or indirectly. It is covered by the developer New Launch Example: A buyer purchases a new condominium unit in a new development project for RM 600,000: Commission at 3% equals RM 18,000, paid by the developer to the agent's agency The buyer pays the full RM 600,000 to the developer with no hidden commission costs Note: The commission percentage varies significantly between projects and developers. Always confirm the rate in your agency agreement before marketing any new launch. Key Differences Summary: Subsale: Commission up to a maximum of 3%, paid by seller, part of transaction costs New Launch: Commission ranges from 1% to 10%, paid by developer, depends on agency agreement Subsale: Agent handles full marketing, negotiations, and transaction management New Launch: Developer handles most marketing. Agent's role is primarily to facilitate sales What About Rental Commissions? Rental transactions follow a different commission structure. In Malaysia, the standard rental commission ranges from 1.25 to 1.75 months' rent, typically paid by the landlord. For example, if a property is rented at RM 2,000 per month: At 1.25 months: RM 2,500 commission At 1.75 months: RM 3,500 commission The same agency-to-agent split under Rule 91(2), VALUERS, APPRAISERS AND ESTATE AGENTS RULES 1986 (P.U.(A) 64/1986) applies. The agent receives up to 40% of the professional fee, with the agency retaining the balance. Note: Final rental commission guidelines are subject to confirmation. Always verify the applicable rate with your agency before entering any rental transaction. Key Takeaways About Real Estate Commission in Malaysia Subsale property commission in Malaysia can go up to a maximum of 3% of the purchase price Project properties (new launches) offer 1% to 10% commission, depending on the agency agreement with the developer Rental commission ranges from 1.25 to 1.75 months' rent The seller typically pays commission for subsale properties, deducted from final sale proceeds Commission is split between listing and buying agents, with each agency retaining the professional fee Refer: Rule 91(2), VALUERS, APPRAISERS AND ESTATE AGENTS RULES 1986 (P.U.(A) 64/1986), the individual agent may receive up to 40% of the professional fee per transaction Commission rates are negotiable, especially for high-value properties or in certain market conditions The commission covers extensive services: marketing, lead generation, negotiation, and transaction support Buyers don't typically pay commission directly, making real estate agent services valuable at no direct cost Real estate can be a lucrative career for agents who understand commission structures and work with reputable agencies Disclaimer This is not an actual calculation. Situations may vary across different agencies. Your commission shall eventually be based on your agency arrangement. Estimates for guidance only. Actual figures depend on the agreed rate, the agency split, and whether the deal is a subsale, new launch, or rental. Ready to Start Your Real Estate Journey?

Join one of Malaysia's largest real estate networks, with a fast 5 day commission payout and competitive splits. Join IQI today → Frequently Asked Questions Do I have to pay commission if I buy a property? No, in Malaysia the seller typically pays commission. As a buyer, you don't pay commission directly. However, it's factored into the overall property market prices. Can I negotiate the commission rate? Yes, commission is negotiable within the maximum 3% cap for subsale properties. Factors like property value, market conditions, and property type influence what rates agents might accept. Always discuss rates upfront. What if I sell my property without an agent? You're not required to use an agent, and you can avoid paying commission by selling directly. However, you lose professional marketing, access to larger buyer networks, and negotiation support. Many sellers find the agent's commission worthwhile compared to the risks and effort of selling alone. How much commission do agents earn from new launch projects? New launch commissions range from 1% to 10% of the property price, depending on the agency's agreement with the developer. The developer pays the commission, not the buyer. What is the rental commission in Malaysia? Rental commissions typically range from 1.25 to 1.75 months' rent, usually paid by the landlord. The exact amount depends on the agency's terms and the rental agreement. How much of the commission does the agent actually keep? Refer: Rule 91(2), VALUERS, APPRAISERS AND ESTATE AGENTS RULES 1986 (P.U.(A) 64/1986), the individual agent may receive up to a maximum of 40% of the professional fee per transaction. The agency retains at least 60% to cover operations, marketing, technology, and compliance. Your exact share depends on your agency arrangement. Is real estate a good career if commissions are low? Yes. While individual commissions might seem modest, successful agents who close multiple deals monthly can earn substantial incomes. At IQI Global, top performers earn six figures annually through consistent sales and professional service. Do all agencies use the same commission structure? No. Commission rates and agent-to-agency splits vary by agency. It's always worth comparing multiple agencies and understanding their fee structures before committing. Final Thoughts Understanding real estate commission structure is essential whether you're buying, selling, or considering a career in the industry. The commission rates in Malaysia up to 3% for subsale, 1-10% for new launches and 1.25-1.75 months for rent represent fair value for the expertise, marketing, and support that professional agents provide. By grasping how commissions work, you can negotiate better deals, choose the right agent, and make informed real estate decisions. IQI Global and Juwai IQI are committed to providing transparent, competitive commission structures that reward our agents for excellent service while offering tremendous value to our buyers and sellers across Malaysia.

(The Truth Revealed!) Being a Real Estate Negotiator (REN): Everything You Need to Know! 10 Effective Real Estate Marketing Strategies in Malaysia (2026)
Residential Prices Maintain Positive Momentum Greece's residential property market continued to demonstrate positive momentum in the second quarter of 2026, supported by sustained housing demand and ongoing international investment interest. Apartment prices increased 5.5% year-on-year in Q2 2026, while newer apartments recorded stronger annual growth of 6.2%. The figures suggest that residential property values remain resilient, although price growth has moderated compared with earlier periods. Demand remains an important driver of the housing market, particularly as constrained supply in established locations continues to influence property values. For buyers and investors, these conditions reinforce the importance of understanding local market fundamentals rather than relying solely on broader national price movements. International Investment Reinforces Market Appeal Foreign capital continues to play a significant role in Greece's property sector. During the first half of 2026, foreign capital inflows into Greek real estate reached approximately USD1.14 billion, representing an increase of 6.7% compared with H1 2025. This continued international investment supports market confidence and reflects Greece's appeal to overseas property purchasers. However, positive investment trends do not mean every residential development offers the same level of opportunity. Property location, development quality, buyer demand and long-term ownership costs remain important factors when evaluating potential acquisitions. Investors should also consider the relationship between recent price growth and a property's ability to generate sustainable returns. Outlook Greece's property market enters the final months of 2026 with positive residential price momentum and continued international investment support. While growth has moderated, resilient housing demand, constrained supply and overseas buyer interest may continue supporting selected locations. A disciplined, long-term investment approach remains essential. The contents of this article were contributed by Nikos Pratikakis, Head of IQI Greece.

Dubai's Property Market Requires Greater Selectivity Dubai continues to attract international property investors, supported by its residential developments, branded residences and established real estate market. However, successful investment increasingly depends on selecting assets that can sustain rental income and maintain their appeal over time. Rather than focusing exclusively on headline prices or advertised rental yields, investors should examine developer credibility, building quality, community infrastructure and long-term maintenance requirements. Established neighbourhood amenities, convenient access and well-maintained facilities can strengthen a property's appeal to both tenants and future purchasers. Looking Beyond Rental Yield Rental returns are an important consideration, but gross yield alone does not represent actual investment performance. Service charges, maintenance expenses, vacancy periods, management costs and financing commitments can significantly affect the income investors ultimately receive. Comparing properties based on their expected net income provides a more realistic picture of potential returns. Investors should also compare asking prices with relevant off-plan launches and nearby completed properties. Launch premiums, rental-income expectations, delivery schedules and developer track records deserve careful examination before making a purchase. Equally important is understanding the intended buyer when the property is eventually resold. Families may prioritise spacious layouts and convenient amenities, while executive tenants and international purchasers may value location, building standards and accessibility differently. With an investment horizon of five to ten years, selecting an asset that appeals to future buyers can be as important as its current rental potential. Outlook Dubai's property market continues to offer opportunities for investors who prioritise quality over speculation. As market conditions and supply evolve, net rental returns, asset condition, community appeal and future resale demand will remain key factors in identifying sustainable long-term investments.

Canada's Housing Market Becomes More Selective Canada's residential property market is experiencing softer conditions, giving buyers greater flexibility as elevated inventory and economic uncertainty continue to influence demand. National home sales declined by 7.7% year-on-year, while national home prices fell by 1.6%, reflecting a market in which buyers are becoming more cautious. Although these national figures indicate a general slowdown, regional performance varies significantly. For prospective purchasers, understanding local pricing, housing supply and transaction activity is increasingly important when making property decisions. Regional Housing Markets Show Different Trends In Metro Vancouver, the benchmark home price stood at approximately CAD1.076 million, representing a 5.5% annual decline. Inventory increased by 24.3% year-on-year, while sales activity dropped 8.4%, creating greater choice for purchasers and potentially improving their negotiating position. The Greater Toronto Area recorded an average selling price of approximately CAD1.006 million, down 5.1% year-on-year. Sales totalled 5,040 transactions, representing a 9.9% annual decline, while new listings decreased by 14.4%. Quebec showed comparatively stronger price resilience. Single-family home prices reached approximately CAD498,500, up 3% annually, while condominium prices remained around CAD400,000, unchanged year-on-year. Plex properties also recorded price growth, reaching approximately CAD687,553, an increase of 5%. These contrasting results demonstrate why nationwide averages cannot fully explain individual housing markets. Outlook Canada's property market offers a more selective buying environment, particularly in locations where inventory has expanded and prices have softened. However, regional fundamentals remain decisive. Local supply, affordability, market liquidity and long-term demand should guide buyers and investors rather than national trends alone.
