Note that 2.45% is the average commission for a property in QLD. The commission is calculated by multiplying the property value and commission together, then dividing by 100, i.e. Property Value * Agent Commission / 100 = Estimated Commission, excluding GST.

This calculation does not include GST. When receiving quotes from agents, ensure that you know whether their fees also include or exclude GST. Commission will vary and can be negotiated according to the range of services your agent can provide, plus the location, style, condition, size and other attributes of your property.

Keep in mind that real estate agent commission varies across the state, especially between metro and rural areas. This calculator should only be used to give a rough guide on how you may be charged for the sale of your property.

Real estate agent commission in Queensland was previously regulated. In May 2014, a new piece of legislation passed that deregulated agent commission in the state.

Before 2014, real estate agents in QLD charged up to 5% on the first $18000 of the property value, and then up to 2.5% on any remainder. The fee was rarely negotiated for Queenslander agents. For more information, read our guide on real estate agent fee structures between states.

Keep in mind that agents also may or may not include other selling costs in their commission, such as marketing/advertising fees. Make sure to look carefully at agent commission quotes and their marketing plans/proposals before committing – the lowest selling cost doesn’t necessarily result in the highest sale price or best outcome for you.

This calculator should only be used as a general guide, as laws governing regulation can change and property markets can fluctuate, altering how commissions or fees may be charged.
