How you are paid

Buyers contact you and pay you directly under terms you negotiate. Listings are free and there is no seller commission.

You sign the buyer's license and the buyer pays you in agreed milestones. A success fee is due after closing, with the rate agreed case by case. There is no upfront fee.

Seller fees

No upfront fee; success fee due after closing, but rate only agreed later.

Payment timing

Payment due date and acceptance rules are negotiated privately with buyer.

Buyer payment milestones set by agreement; 50/50 example is illustrative, not a fixed term.

Advertised compensation (not an offer)

Site cites $10K–$100K typical deals; market anecdote, not verified closed deals or guarantee

Site example $152,700 and buyer offer examples are explicitly illustrative, not actual deals

License: Negotiated per deal
