How It Works

In many Hamptons real estate transactions, the seller or listing broker pays the buyer’s agent. The amount is negotiable and varies by property. Most buyer’s agents keep the entire amount.

When you buy a house in the Hamptons through BRN, we return half of the commission we receive, up to 1.5% of the purchase price, to you at closing. You receive full-service representation throughout the purchase.

The East End, From the Inside

BRN operates across two markets — New York City and the Hamptons — and knows both from the inside. We’re not a Manhattan or Brooklyn brokerage occasionally venturing east, and we’re not a Hamptons shop unfamiliar with how sophisticated city buyers think. We bring the same rigor, the same team, and the same local fluency to both markets.

We work across the full East End — Southampton, East Hampton, Bridgehampton, Sag Harbor, Water Mill, Amagansett, Montauk, Shelter Island, and beyond.

Whether you’re buying a weekend home, a primary residence, or a luxury investment property in the Hamptons, we stay closely involved from your first showing through closing.

The BRN Difference

The BRN Difference

01 — East End Market Expertise

The Hamptons luxury real estate market moves differently than Manhattan or Brooklyn — seasonal pricing, off-market inventory in Bridgehampton and Sag Harbor, zoning nuances across the East End — all require local fluency. We have it.

02 — Financial and Legal Rigor

We bring backgrounds in finance, law, and real estate. We run the numbers, assess the property, and negotiate with precision — across transactions from $1M to $10M+.

03 — A Closing That Works in Your Favor

When the deal closes, BRN returns up to 1.5% of the purchase price to you. On a $5M home, that’s $75,000. On a $7M home, $105,000. Yours to use however you choose.

A meaningful portion of Hamptons inventory — especially at the higher end — trades privately, without ever appearing on public listing sites. Access depends on relationships with listing brokers, neighbors, and homeowners. BRN’s network includes both NYC and East End sources, which expands what’s actually available to you beyond what’s visible on Zillow or StreetEasy.

Cash transactions are common in the Hamptons and typically close faster than financed deals — sometimes in 30–45 days versus 60–120. They also shift the due diligence emphasis: more weight on property condition, title, and zoning compliance; less on appraisal contingencies. BRN handles both cash and financed Hamptons purchases and adjusts the transaction approach accordingly.
