Sounds crazy. Try again. If you are looking for a $11.95M gorgeous 6 bed, 5.5 bath downtown Boston home…we have the perfect place for you….but dont buy through us…buy through Redfin and they will cut you a check at closing for $239,000! Check out the listing.
We have all seen and heard about Redfin, many pass judgement…I think we did at the very beginning too….but we love it now. We love the innovation, the team and concept…so much maybe we will even jump into the online brokerage space. Anyway, check out this listing (Herb Chambers lives here!)

When somone that can afford to buy a place for 12 million do you really think they care about saving $239k. If I had that kind of money, I would want the best agent possible representing me. I wouldn’t be concerned about commission savings. I don’t think you are going to find many outstanding agents hanging their hat at Redfin. Just like you wouldn’t see the best doctor or lawyer hanging their hat at Discount Doctors/Lawyers INC.
