Is it worth offering a buyer’s agent bonus to drive more showings?

In some cases, yes. If your listing is in a price range or property type where buyer agent activity is low, a bonus commission can motivate agents to bring their clients through the door.

**When to use this in 2026:** With condo sales down 20-25%, a buyer agent bonus on a condo listing can break through the noise . It’s not a substitute for correct pricing or good presentation. But if you have those in order and showings are still low after two weeks on market, a buyer agent incentive can break a stalemate. Discuss this option with your realtor as a targeted strategy, not a first response.
