Don't pay your agent more than you have to.
Most sellers have no idea whether the commission they’ve been quoted is fair. This short video course changes that — before you’re sitting across from an agent.
⚠️ You’re not sure whether the commission you’ve been quoted is standard — or inflated
⚠️ You don’t know what questions to ask, or whether pushing back will upset the agent relationship
⚠️ You’ve received a marketing proposal full of costs you don’t fully understand
⚠️ You feel like the agent knows far more than you — and that imbalance makes you uncomfortable
Selling your home is one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll ever make. The problem is that agents do this every day. You don’t. And that imbalance can show up in the final numbers.
A Clear, Practical Framework — built entirely from the seller's side.
Most advice about agent commissions comes from agents themselves. This is different. It’s built from the inside out — by someone who has spent decades on both sides of this conversation, and now works exclusively for sellers.
This short video series is designed to give you a clear understanding of how commissions and marketing costs work, so you can assess what is reasonable and approach these discussions with confidence.
Rather than guessing or relying on conflicting advice, you’ll have a simple framework to help you evaluate the proposals you receive.
This isn’t something most sellers are ever shown
Most sellers go into conversations about commission simply asking, “What do you charge?”
But that’s only a small part of the picture.
What matters is how the fee is structured, what’s included, what’s not—and how those details can influence both the service you receive and the final result.
This video series is built around one thing — seeing where sellers unknowingly give away leverage, and making sure you don’t.
It’s not about learning more—it’s about understanding what actually matters before you make decisions.
Because once you’ve signed with an agent, your negotiating position is largely gone.

Testimonials
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“From our first contact with Kathryn, the whole complex process of selling our home became less and less a wall of confusion and more and more of a coordinated strategic approach. She negotiated a fantastic selling and marketing fee — and at the end of the day, she not only got us the best sale price but made the process far less stressful.”
— Kelly
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

About Your Guide
Kathryn Fantov has over 35 years of experience in real estate — first as an agent, now as a Vendor Advocate working exclusively for sellers.
She founded Sydney Vendor Advocates in 2013 after seeing too many homeowners misled by the very people they’d trusted to represent them. During her years as an agent, she watched sellers consistently lose leverage — not through bad luck, but through a lack of the right information at the right time.
This course is her way of changing that. Everything in it comes from the seller’s side of the table — which is the only side Kathryn has worked on for more than a decade.

Answer: The principles apply broadly across Australia, though Kathryn’s examples draw on her experience in Sydney and surrounding markets.
Question 3: How do I access the course after I purchase?
Answer: You’ll receive an email with your access link immediately after purchase. If you have any trouble, Kathryn’s team is available to help directly.

The conversation is coming. Be ready for it.
Selling your home — especially after many years — is one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll ever make. You deserve to go into that process with your eyes open.
This course won’t take long to watch. But what you learn could stay with you through every conversation you have with an agent — and potentially save you thousands of dollars.
