Get Paid to Buy Your Next Home in Michigan – 50% Cash Back at Closing
Yes — you can literally get paid to buy your next home in Michigan. At Kermath Realty / FlatFeeMichigan, we rebate up to 50% of our buyer's agent commission directly back to you at closing. For a $400,000 home, that could mean $6,000+ cash in your pocket — or credited toward your purchase or closing costs.
It's 100% legal in Michigan (one of 40+ states allowing buyer rebates), fully disclosed, and compliant with state rules and lender guidelines. No tricks — just real savings for homebuyers.
