ListOneNJ is a New Jersey-licensed brokerage headquartered in Parsippany and serving Rutherford and Bergen County. It offers in-person brokerage services, rather than operating solely as a virtual agent-matching or referral website. Broker-owner David Blinder is directly involved in pricing strategy, marketing, offer negotiations, and transaction oversight; other licensed professionals may assist when appropriate. ListOneNJ does not claim to have a physical office in every town it serves.
Yes. ListOneNJ's 1% listing-side service includes applicable local Multiple Listing Service (MLS) exposure and professional property photography, together with pricing guidance, listing marketing, negotiation, and transaction coordination. Service terms, optional services, and any buyer-agent compensation should be reviewed in the listing agreement. A lower fee does not by itself establish that a brokerage provides less marketing.

No. New Jersey sellers are not automatically required to pay the buyer's brokerage. A buyer may ask the seller to pay buyer-agent compensation as part of a purchase offer, and the seller may agree, reject, or negotiate that request. Any such compensation is separate from ListOneNJ's 1% listing-side fee. Real estate commissions are negotiable.
ListOneNJ does not charge a cancellation fee if your home is not under contract and no offer is pending at the time of cancellation. A 14-day written notice is required. ListOneNJ may still be entitled to compensation if a buyer who submitted an offer during the listing period later purchases the property. These conditions and any applicable obligations are governed by the signed listing agreement.
Review the ListOneNJ 1% listing program for published listing terms before deciding.
There is no mandatory or fixed Realtor commission rate in Rutherford or elsewhere in New Jersey. Brokerages offer different listing-side fees and service arrangements. ListOneNJ offers a 1% listing-side fee; compensation for a buyer's broker, if any, is a separate, negotiable matter. Compare listing fees rather than assuming a bundled percentage is required. For a detailed explanation, read the Ultimate Guide to Realtor Commissions in New Jersey.
Eligible residential buyers represented by ListOneNJ may receive a rebate equal to 50% of the buyer-broker compensation actually received by ListOneNJ. For illustration only, if the brokerage receives a negotiated 2% buyer-broker commission, a 50% rebate would equal 1% of the purchase price. The 2% figure is hypothetical, not mandatory or standard. Eligibility is subject to the written rebate agreement, seller or builder and lender approval where applicable, closing requirements, and agent availability. Learn more about the New Jersey buyer commission rebate program.
Not necessarily. Buyer-broker compensation is negotiated in the buyer representation agreement and may be paid by the seller, buyer, or both, subject to the purchase agreement and applicable requirements. Sellers are not obligated to cover a buyer's agent, but buyers may request seller-paid compensation when submitting an offer.
Depending on the lender, settlement terms, and applicable restrictions, an approved commission rebate may reduce eligible closing costs or be applied through another lender-approved closing arrangement, potentially including principal reduction. The method cannot be assumed in advance. New Jersey rebates must be properly documented and disclosed, and paid or credited at closing. Ask your lender and closing attorney which uses are permitted for your transaction; rebate recipients should also consult a tax professional.
All real estate commissions are negotiable in New Jersey. Buyer commission rebates may have tax consequences; recipients are encouraged to consult a qualified tax professional. Commission rebates are subject to seller / lender approval.
