Brokerage recognition
Don's lower commission model is not a side project. It has produced real Calgary seller outcomes at scale, including national recognition within 2 Percent Realty for sales performance.
A traditional model and a 2 Percent Realty model should both be judged by service, market exposure, pricing skill, and sale result.
Don Wong focuses on full-service selling: pricing, preparation, MLS exposure, Realtor.ca visibility, showing support, offer negotiation, condition management, and closing guidance.
Side-by-side comparison
This comparison reflects Don's specific service model. Not all lower-commission models are equivalent - always confirm what is included in writing.
Commission examples are simplified for illustration. All terms are negotiable and confirmed in writing before listing. 7/3 example uses 7% on first $100K plus 3% on balance. 2% example uses 2% of total sale price. GST applies where applicable.
What the comparison really comes down to
The comparison between a traditional commission and a 2 Percent Realty model is not really about what you pay - it is about what you keep after a well-executed sale.
A traditional agent who prices your home $20,000 higher than it should be and then requires two price reductions over 60 days has cost you more than any commission difference. Carrying costs, second-look stigma, and negotiation weakness from an overlong listing all affect your savings. The commission is only one variable.
The better comparison is: which agent will price accurately the first time, generate buyer attention in the first two weeks, and negotiate the final contract with discipline? That is the evaluation worth making - with commission structure as one factor, not the only one.
A lower commission model can make a meaningful difference when the service plan still protects the sale.

Seller strategy
A fair comparison does not assume traditional is better or cheaper is weaker. It compares the actual service plan, pricing process, buyer exposure, negotiation support, and selling costs and commission savings side by side.
That is why these pages are built around practical seller decisions: what your property is worth, what buyers are comparing it against, how much commission affects your savings, and what needs to happen before you sign a contract.
How the numbers are used
When comparing a 2 Percent Realty listing against a traditional model, the data that matters most isn't the commission difference on paper - it's the pricing accuracy on your specific home. A well-interpreted market analysis positions your property to attract buyers in the first two weeks. A flawed one burns the listing period and costs more than any commission savings could recover.
For a detached home, that can mean lot size, garage type, basement development, renovation quality, school-area demand, and whether competing listings are newer, larger, or better prepared. For a condo, the same conversation may depend on building reputation, parking, condo fees, floor height, views, amenities, bylaws, special assessments, and how many similar units are for sale at the same time.
The goal is to choose a launch position that gives the home a fair chance to attract qualified buyers without leaving money on the table. If the early showing data, feedback, or competing inventory changes, the plan can adjust quickly instead of drifting for weeks.

Common questions
The service can be equivalent - but it depends entirely on the specific agent and model. With Don Wong and 2 Percent Realty, the service plan covers pricing analysis, MLS and Realtor.ca exposure, listing preparation guidance, showing coordination, offer negotiation, condition management, and closing support. The commission structure is different: lower than a traditional 7/3 model, which translates to meaningful savings on your selling costs and commission savings. The service itself does not change.
With Don Wong's model, the goal is to give up nothing in terms of core selling service. Sellers still receive the full pricing strategy conversation, MLS exposure that reaches cooperating agents and buyer-direct platforms, professional guidance on preparation and presentation, offer review and negotiation, and post-offer condition support. What changes is the commission percentage. That difference - often $8,000 to $14,000 depending on price range - goes into the seller's savings rather than the brokerage.
Ask both agents the same set of questions: show me your last 10 sales in my neighbourhood and property type, what was your list-to-sale price ratio, what is your process when a listing stalls, and what do you estimate my selling costs and commission savings will be after commission and closing costs. Compare those answers - not the commission rate in isolation. The agent who can answer those questions specifically and honestly is the one with the process worth paying for, regardless of what they charge.
