Generous Giving
Real estate that gives back
When a client buys or sells a home and names a nonprofit they love, Grand Rapids Real Estate Co. donates a share of its commission — up to 40% — to that organization. From our share, never out of anyone’s pocket.
A nonprofit signs up
Your organization joins the program with a short form and a quick online signature — no meetings, no paperwork mailed back and forth.
A client names you
When someone buys or sells with us and chooses your nonprofit as their cause, your organization is set as the beneficiary of that transaction.
You receive a donation
At closing, a share of our commission is donated to your nonprofit — typically within two weeks — with full transparency.

| $1M – $5M | 30% of commission |
| $5M – $10M | 35% of commission |
