Overall rating for Platinum Real Estate
Our expert take:
Platinum Real Estate is potentially worth contacting if you’re interested in hiring a discount realtor, but consider comparing it with higher-rated alternatives. It received excellent scores for pricing & savings.
CUSTOMER SCORE Platinum Real Estate's Customer Score is 3.4 out of 5.0 (Limited Data). OVERALL RATING Lifetime average rating is 1.0, based on 1 review. The total review count falls below our minimum reliability floor of 20 reviews, so the 1.0 average rating may not be a reliable service quality indicator (easily skewed by outliers). RECENCY We consider this review data very fresh. 1 review (100% of all reviews) was posted in the past 6 months. The median review age is well below our "freshness" threshold of 12 months. COMPLAINTS Complaint rate is very low; only a small share of reviews (1–2 star) are complaints, well within our comfort thresholds. 1 complaint was posted in the past 6 months. TREND Platinum Real Estate averaged 1 in the past 6 months, but across only 1 review — too few to reliably assess trends. INTERPRETATION There's insufficient verified data available to assess current service quality with confidence.
Platinum Real Estate has a 5.0 pricing and fees score. This reflects an exceptionally competitive price point and potential savings compared to similar discount brands.

Platinum Real Estate has a strong 4.3 track record score. We were able to verify activity dating back at least 24 years, which is about 15 years longer than the typical discount real estate broker. Platinum Real Estate has had somewhat inconsistent new monthly activity over its lifespan. This may be due to missing data or indicate a smaller or less active operation, but it’s likely a stable and legitimate business.

FAQ about low commission realtors
Before committing to any discount real estate broker, ask these key questions to ensure you're getting the service level you need:
- What's your experience in my area? Ask for recent sales in your neighborhood and how their sale prices compared to list prices.
- What services are included in your fee? Get specific details about what's covered in their listing fee. Some discount brokers offer full service while others charge extra for certain features, like pro photography or open houses.
- Will I work directly with you? Some discount realtors will assign you to another agent or support staff. Confirm whether you’ll have in-person, hands-on realtor support, especially if you want a full-service option.
- How do you market listings? Verify they list on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) and major sites like Zillow and Realtor.com. Ask about their digital marketing strategy and whether they use social media or paid advertising.
- What's your average time to close? Compare this to your local market average. A good discount broker should match the local average or beat typical timelines.
- Can I see recent client reviews? Look for verified reviews on Google, Zillow, or other trusted platforms. Pay close attention to how they respond to negative feedback.
The best way to find the right agent is often through a matching service that's already vetted candidates for you. Clever Real Estate connects you with experienced, full-service agents from top brokerages who offer a 1.5% listing fee — giving you traditional agent expertise at discount broker savings.

The main difference is the listing commission fee, but service levels can also vary.
Traditional agents typically charge 2.5-3% listing commission and provide full-service support including marketing, showings, negotiations, and closing assistance. Their higher commission often covers extensive advertising and dedicated support staff.
Discount real estate brokers charge reduced commissions (often 1% commission, 2% commission, or flat fees) by operating more efficiently, using technology, streamlined processes, or higher transaction volumes to stay profitable at lower rates. Many offer the same core services as traditional agents, while others provide limited support.
A discount realtor isn't automatically a worse choice. The best low commission realtors maintain high service standards while passing savings to clients. However, it's important to verify exactly what's included in their fee structure, confirm they have strong local market expertise, and check their customer reviews for pros and cons.
Reputable full-service discount real estate brokers usually include these essential services:
- MLS listing and syndication to major real estate websites (Zillow, Realtor.com, etc.)
- Professional photography (typically 20-40 photos)
- Comparative market analysis (CMA) and pricing strategy
- Yard sign, lockbox, and showing service
- Offer review and negotiation assistance
- Contract and paperwork management
- Closing coordination and support
Some discount realtors provide premium services at no cost or for an extra fee.
- Open house hosting
- Premium photography packages (drone shots, virtual tours, 3D walkthroughs)
- Staging consultation or rental furniture
- Extensive print marketing (postcards, brochures, magazine ads)
- In-person showing attendance (some use lockboxes and self-showing instead)
Always ask for a detailed service breakdown in writing before signing a listing agreement. The best low commission realtors are transparent about what's included versus what costs extra.
Don't rely solely on information from the broker's website. Take these steps to independently verify their reputation:
- Check multiple review platforms. Search for the company and individual agent on Google Reviews, Zillow, Yelp, and the Better Business Bureau. Look for patterns in both positive and negative feedback.
- Verify licensing. Confirm the agent and brokerage are properly licensed in your state. Most state real estate commissions offer free license lookup tools online.
- Look for complaint history. Check with your state's real estate regulatory board for any disciplinary actions or formal complaints.
- Assess review recency and volume. A discount broker with 100+ recent reviews is more reliable than one with 5 reviews from three years ago. Fresh reviews indicate active business and current service levels.
- Read negative reviews carefully. All businesses get some complaints. Focus on how the company responds and whether you see repeated patterns (poor communication, hidden fees, etc.).
- Ask for references. Request contact information for 2-3 recent clients in your area. Reputable discount real estate brokers should be willing to provide these.
- Check sales data. Ask to see their recent sales in your neighborhood. Compare their sale prices and time-on-market to comparable homes sold by traditional agents.
Be cautious of brokers with no recent reviews, reviews only on their own website, consistently vague or generic testimonials, or reluctance to provide verifiable references.
Not all low commission realtors operate the same way. Choose the right type based on your experience level, available time, and comfort with negotiation:
Full-service discount brokers offer the same services as traditional agents (dedicated support, professional marketing, in-person showings, negotiation assistance) but at reduced rates (typically 1-2%). They achieve lower commissions through efficiency and higher transaction volumes. This model is best for most sellers who want to save on commission.
Flat-fee real estate agents charge a fixed fee regardless of home price, typically with full traditional agent services. This model is most beneficial for sellers with higher-priced homes.
Flat fee MLS listing services list your home on MLS for a one-time fee ($99-$500) but provide minimal additional support. You manage the entire sale yourself — essentially selling for-sale-by-owner with MLS access. This model is best for experienced sellers in hot markets.
