Transparent Pricing

Pricing changes by listing category, not by guesswork

Direct-owner, realtor, and RaleTale-managed listings use the standard platform fee structure. Property-brand listings can set their own RaleTale commission percentage, while legal fee is waived because the brand handles its own legal process.

Standard

Agency Fee

5%

Direct-owner, realtor, and RaleTale-managed properties use the standard 5% agency fee. Property-brand listings are different: the brand enters the commission percentage it pays to RaleTale for each completed transaction.

Scaled

Legal Fee

10% to 3%

Legal fees are not flat. They step down as the transaction amount rises, using a progressive structure so each band is charged at its own rate. Property-brand listings are exempt because their in-house or retained lawyers handle legal documentation.

Legal Fee Bands
Up to N50 Million 10%

10% applies on this first band.

N50 Million - N100 Million 7%

Applied only to the portion above the first N50 Million.

N100 Million - N500 Million 5%

Applied to the portion within this band.

Above N500 Million 3%

Applied to the portion above N500 Million.

Optional

Caution Fee

As Applicable

This is the only optional fee in the pricing structure. It is used as a refundable deposit where the listing requires it and where applicable law permits it.

Policy
  • Refundable where the listing applies it.
  • Held securely where applicable until the tenancy or transaction conditions are met.

Worked Example

Property value ₦100,000,000.00
Agency fee (5%) ₦5,000,000.00
Legal fee (progressive) ₦8,500,000.00
Effective legal rate 8.50%

For a property-brand listing, this same property value would use the brand's chosen RaleTale commission percentage instead of the fixed 5%, and legal fee would be waived.

Property brands: custom RaleTale commission percentage set by the brand.

Legal Fee: progressive 10% / 7% / 5% / 3% by amount band, except waived for property-brand listings.
