That only accounts for the selling side, though. You also get a refund as a buyer and if you are buying and selling with Redfin (not uncommon), the savings are substantial. They actually only charge 1% commission as the selling agent now, too, so vs a typical 6% combined commission, they save 33% for the seller. (Assuming just a sale) Redfin doesn't seem to disclose how they calculate the refund anymore, though, so I'm not sure how much that works out to be. Seems to be around half a percent, so lower than it used to be. All combined, it's close to half of the traditional fees that they either refund or don't collect.
