PLB Commission Fees & FAQ
Our professional fees for HDB, Condo, and Landed properties are typically in the range of 2% to 3%. This percentage reflects the tailored intensity and marketing resources invested in your campaign, encompassing services like production and social media amplification.
PLB invests heavily into every listing we take on, adopting a “skin in the game” front-load approach — we commit our full marketing spend, backend media production, and Inside Sales team time from day one, with no certainty of a sale. We invest an average of $2,500–$5,500 for smaller properties and $8,000–$25,000 for larger properties across the 3.5-month campaign period. No other brokerage in the market takes on this level of upfront risk.
Media Deposit (Refundable)
The seller’s only fee liability. Deposited upfront before work commences, and refundable in full once the property is sold. Non-refundable only if the seller switches agencies mid-campaign, or the property remains unsold after the exclusive period ends.
Marketing Campaign & Advert Cost
PLB’s own investment, borne fully by PLB. The seller is never charged this amount, even if the property doesn’t sell — it is entirely PLB’s business risk, not the seller’s.

*The PLB Marketing Campaign Packages above are for Illustration Purposes only. It might vary after a site visit and detailed assessment of the property.
As each Property is unique, the eventual PLB Marketing Campaign Packages crafted are bespoke and tailored to bring out the best in the subject property. Hence, our recommendation is to have our 1st Consult Session on site with our Listings Consultants at the subject property for us to carry out a professional assessment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Sell
The Seller’s Consultation session is free-of-charge and non-obligatory. We usually start off the process through a consult session.
Usually, the first consult session preferably will be at the property itself so that during the discussion, our consult team can have an assessment after seeing the property and plan for the marketing angle should we be appointed. After the first meetup session, our consult team will send over a Customized Listings Marketing Plan.
You can then decide whether to come onboard to engage PLB team after vetting through the proposed plan.

All listings handled by PropertyLimBrothers are on an exclusive arrangement and appointment basis for the past many years. The beautiful home tours that you see frequently on our PLB Youtube channels are exclusive homes that home sellers have appointed PLB to market and position for our clients. The reason why home sellers continue to trust PLB is that PLB takes the aggressive marketing and collective effort by our entire team for each property we represent as a heavy upfront investment and a business risk, effectively to find the right buyer for our clients, and to attract massive attention through our platforms to their listings. Thus creating a high possibility of result to find the right buyer.
PLB Team co-brokes with all external salespersons from every agency in Singapore if they have a buyer that is interested in any of our client’s listings. PLB values transparency, industry professionalism, and integrity when it comes to ensuring our client’s listings get the maximum level of exposure be it from direct buyers or buyers with salespersons representing them. In fact, a large number of PLB’s closed deals are performed with our co-broking partners.
The rationale for an exclusive appointment is that PLB commits to every project it undertakes for our clients. And the huge upfront investment of not just our expertise, team effort, backend media, and marketing production, home staging cost investment, and marketing cost investment into social media ads spend will mean that it will only be viable for us to operate and continue to function well through a mutually committed appointment by our clients.
The exclusive period runs for 3 months — this encompasses an initial Marketing Preparation Phase, and then a full-on Marketing Campaign.
During this period, the PLB team will routinely do a review with our clients to assess the current response and feedback from potential buyers.
We are happy to mutually extend the exclusive period for another 3 months at no extra cost to our sellers, to continue marketing their property at its fullest potential, should both PLB and our clients decide to continue with the exclusive period.
We usually require a 3 to 4-week buffer for the entire Marketing Preparation Phase. This includes paint touch-ups, decluttering, home-staging, virtual mapping, photography, PLB Signature Home Tour media shoot, post-production of the video, and other forms of coordination to launch the property.
1st phase of marketing will be ready in 3 working days’ time as we launch all photos on property portals first while we phase the rest of the marketing campaign launch by phases.
It usually takes about 14 to 21 working days from the shoot date, to when the Video & Social media ads go “LIVE”.
We have proven track records that 8 out of 10 properties that we represent for our property sellers are sold within 3 months.
We advise our clients not to launch any properties in the marketplace hastily, all properties are unique and need a proper positioning and crafting of the marketing and content angle before launch.
Proper preparation work which includes, Home Staging, Decluttering, and the creation of a compelling Home Tour content using PLB Signature Video Home Tour is necessary to create a content that can create thousands and hundreds of thousands of viewership online and on social media where buyer audiences can be instantly targeted to view the home without the need of competing purely using a passive approach on property portals.
Purely dependent on 1 form of marketing alone, say only using photos on portals will result in limitations and less interest and traction as it would mean that we will be just like many of the other listings in the market with no real “active” social media reach to potential buyers.
Various marketing campaign strategies and options can be explored when we visit your property. It will help us understand what we are working with and how we can value-add to the entire Marketing Campaign to achieve the best target price possible.
As long as a type of marketing can work for our clients, we adopt them through an omnipresent marketing approach.
Purchase
For the purchase of a resale private property, there is no commission payable by buyers, otherwise known as the “co-broking” fee.
It is usually split between the agents from the buyer’s and seller’s sides. This is paid by the developer if it is a new launch development. Appointment of the PLB team to represent our clients for purchasing and investing in a property is on an exclusive basis as we will allocate expertise and resources from our Research and Buyer’s Consult team who assist our clients in the complete process of their home until they successfully secure their next home.
Most importantly, PLB Buyer consult team adopts analysis and data strategies with our proprietary PLB MOAT ANALYSIS tool as well as our financial metrics tools to help clients select a property based on investment objectives and preferences, seeking a fine balance yet placing investment and exit priorities in place.
The following professional services are also included — Research, preference and fact-finding, sourcing, and selection of suitable properties in the entire marketplace.
Viewing arrangements, negotiations, paperwork, and relevant applications with HDB or financial institutions for In-Principal loan approval and mortgage loan coordination as well as guidance throughout the entire buying process until the takeover of the property.
