Can I sell to Opendoor if I'm working with an agent?

Yes — your real estate agent can represent you throughout the entire process of selling to Opendoor. Having an agent does not change your eligibility or the way the transaction works. Your agent can also earn a referral fee for their role.

How it works with an agent

The selling process stays the same whether or not you have an agent. The key difference is that your agent is looped in as your representative.

• Your agent can request an offer on your behalf through the Opendoor agent portal.
• Your agent receives a copy of the offer details and can walk you through the breakdown.
• Your agent can communicate with Opendoor's team on your behalf for questions about the offer, timeline, or closing process.

How your agent earns a referral fee

When your agent is credited on the transaction, they earn a referral fee at closing. Here is how the credit works:

1. Your agent submits the offer request through the Opendoor agent portal — this is the simplest way to ensure they are attached to the transaction from the start.
2. If you already requested an offer on your own, contact support to have your agent added to the file before closing.
3. The referral fee is paid at closing as part of the standard transaction costs.

Important: To receive credit, your agent must be registered on the transaction before you sign the purchase agreement. Adding an agent after the contract is signed may not be possible.

Your agent can also help you compare options

One benefit of working with an agent is that they can help you weigh the Opendoor offer against listing on the open market. Your agent can:

• Run a comparative market analysis to see how the Opendoor offer stacks up against likely sale prices on the MLS.
• Factor in your timeline and priorities — certainty, speed, and convenience versus potentially testing the open market.
• Advise on the overall net proceeds after accounting for agent commissions, repairs, staging, and holding costs in a traditional sale.

What your agent should know

If your agent is new to working with Opendoor, here are the basics:

• The process is streamlined — no showings, no open houses, no buyer contingencies.
• Closing timelines range from 14 to 60 days, and the date is flexible within that window.
• The agent portal at opendoor.com gives agents tools to request offers, track status, and manage transactions.

What if I already requested an offer without my agent?

If you started the Opendoor process on your own and now want to add your real estate agent to the transaction:

1. Call 888-352-7075 or email support@opendoor.com with your address and your agent's name, license number, and contact information.
2. Your agent can also call to be added to your file — they will need to provide your address and their brokerage details.
3. Opendoor will update your transaction so your agent receives status updates and earns the referral fee.

Tip: It is best to add your agent as early in the process as possible. If you are already under contract, the team will let you know what options are available.
