Tips for negotiating realtor commission in Wyoming
Whether you’re selling a ranch outside Cheyenne, a cabin in Casper, or a rental in Laramie, you can almost always save thousands by negotiating a lower commission rate!
Negotiating a lower realtor percentage in Wyoming depends on two main factors: your situation and the housing market.

| Your situation |

| The Wyoming housing market |

While your personal situation will obviously vary, Wyoming real estate market conditions will affect all home sellers in your area.
In general, in a seller's market — where home sellers have more leverage than buyers — a listing agent's job is easier and they may be more willing to lower their commission rates. The opposite is usually true in a buyer's market.

To judge the current state of your real estate market, look at these three factors:
- Months of inventory
- Sale to list price
- Home value trends
If every factor points to Wyoming being a seller's market, then you may be in a good position to negotiate a lower commission rate with your agent. If market conditions are mixed or favor buyers, it may be more challenging to persuade your realtor to accept a cheaper fee.
The current state of the Wyoming real estate market
| Factor | Trends | Indication |

| Months of inventory | There's 3.5 months of housing inventory on the market | Seller's market |
| Home values | Home values have risen 30.87% year over year | Seller's market |

The American frontier is alive and well in Wyoming. Known for its wide-open spaces and rustic culture, Wyoming is home to seven national parks — including Yellowstone, home to the well-known Old Faithful geyser — as well as picturesque Western towns that attract residents as varied as Kanye West and Dick Cheney.
Wyoming is one of the most sparsely-populated states in the U.S. Its population has stayed pretty flat over the past decade, especially when compared to high-growth states like Florida or California. But the state boasts a solid economy that rests on two very durable industries: energy and agriculture. With only moderate housing inventory in the state, buying or investing here is a safe, affordable bet.
