What are the relevant laws and regulations on the collection of agency fees in China?

The state has no regulations on agency fees, but local governments do. Taking Beijing as an example, in order to standardize the market price behavior of economic services for residential buying and selling and reduce the burden of economic services for residential buying and selling, the Beijing Municipal Development and Reform Commission and the Housing Construction Committee jointly issued the Notice on Reducing the Fees for Brokerage Services for Residential Buying and Selling in this Municipality (hereinafter referred to as the Notice).

1. According to the relevant notice, the residential brokerage service fee shall be borne by the buyer and the seller in half or determined by the buyer and the seller through consultation; The unified charging standard for residential brokerage services shall not exceed 2%.

2. Other services provided by general real estate brokerage agencies (hereinafter referred to as brokerage agencies) shall be voluntarily selected by the parties and clearly agreed in the contract. Among them, the real estate registration service fee does not exceed 500 yuan/case; Charge for agency loan service, not exceeding 300 yuan/case; The cost of handling the relevant formalities of house occupancy shall not exceed 200 yuan/case; According to the requirements of the client, the price of other services provided shall be regulated by the market, which shall be agreed by the client and the brokerage institution through consultation.

3. It is also indicated in the notice that the charging standard can be lowered. A small number of particularly complicated residential brokerage services may, with the consent of both parties to the transaction, be appropriately floated on the basis of the prescribed charging standards, and the floating rate shall not exceed 65,438+00%. That is, the agency fee for second-hand houses is 2% of the total turnover, and a few particularly complicated ones rise to 2.2%.

Extended data:

As long as you buy a second-hand house through a regular intermediary company, you don't have to worry about being overcharged by the intermediary company. The agency fee charged by a general agency is 1% or 2%. After determining the house price, you can also calculate the agency fee yourself. This is still relatively transparent.

For example, the second-hand housing agency fee charging standard:

1, the agency fee is generally cash 1%, and the loan is 2%;

2. The loan service fee is charged at 1% of the turnover;

3. Guarantee fee Individual intermediary companies charge an additional 0.5% transaction guarantee service fee, commonly known as "guarantee fee";

4. The fee for real estate registration service shall not exceed 500 yuan/case;

5. Charge for agency loan service, with the maximum not exceeding 300 yuan/case;

6 for housing occupancy related procedures, each household does not exceed 200 yuan.
