What is Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices?

Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices is a real estate brokerage franchise network that serves property buyers and sellers in the United States and abroad. It offers a wide range of services through its agents and third-party partners to help people achieve their goals, and it works with clients ranging from first-time buyers to experienced, high-net-worth individuals interested in luxury real estate or commercial properties.

How does Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices work?

Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices offers a blend of digital and in-person services. The organization employs agents around the world to help clients with their real estate needs, but prospective buyers and sellers can also use the company’s website to search for properties or learn more about what the company offers.

  • For homebuyers, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices’ website makes it simple to search and filter the company’s listings using a range of criteria, including location, price and keywords. Once an area has been chosen, prospective buyers can view properties, save them for later or reach out to the agent for more information. Agents can also help buyers find properties, get inspections and navigate the homebuying process.
  • Home sellers must contact an agent to get started. They can locate offices or agents by searching for a name, location, language or designation. Working with an agent gives a seller access to local market analyses and other services to help them decide on a price, like arranging an inspection of their own property before putting it on the market.

Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices also has a Luxury Collection for high-value properties, and its specialist agents exclusively work with luxury real estate.

Commercial clients, like investors, landlords and corporate tenants, can also locate an agent via the company’s website.

Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices prices

The cost of working with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices will vary based on what you need from the company. As a rule of thumb, sellers in real estate deals pay a commission (a percentage of the property’s sales price) to both the listing agent and the buyer’s agent. However, this cost is generally factored into the property’s purchase price.

Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices doesn’t disclose its agents' commission rates publicly, so you should talk to your local agent about costs before you commit to working with them.

    Hopkinton, MA location. Decent real estate company - but street appearance is sort of ** - building is falling apart and you can actually see plywood everywhere in front of building below windows where siding once was and also on side of building. Not to mention, front of building, right roof corner is peeling up, and I am sure water is getting inside and causing rot. Lastly, I wouldn't want to walk into this dumpy-looking building, it's an embarrassment. In conclusion, Berkshire Hathaway Hopkinton office should GET SOME NEIGHBORHOOD PRIDE and DO BETTER to this building cleaned up and be presentable - and or have the SLUMLORD who owns the building do better!

    I had high hopes for a newer management company as our HOA, but I have been greatly disappointed! We have been in this house less than a year and there is nothing but buck passing on issues in the community, plus they don’t want you to call, everything must be done in the portal. I recently got on the portal and saw a balance of 0, but below that in much smaller lettering was 800.00! We moved into this subdivision because the dues were 400.00, that is a huge jump, and there is nothing pool, no nothing! One of the things I noticed was there was a reserve of 20,000 in 2025 and they want to add another 13,000. For what???? There are no amenities, there are some small common areas that are not taken care of and street lights.

    None of the homeowners were made aware of the change, I found it by accident, it was not until I contacted them as well as others that they finally sent a 2026 budget. No meeting, no nothing and this bill is due Jan 1 and is paid in full, no options for installments. This company is no better and HOA’s are becoming about as bad as timeshare people! I hate HOA communities and they are everywhere!

      Wish I would have checked these sites BEFORE I used them, they are the WORST realtor I have ever used. My 'agent' got sick, went on vacation AFTER, she listed my house, reached out several times for help, got NOTHING. She cared about Berkshire more than she cared about me, their customer service is awful, would not tell anyone to use them, and I will never use them again.

      My experience with Nicole ** in the beginning was good, she's knowledgeable about most things in her business except betrayal and trust, she totally betrayed my trust, with my husband and she started a lot of trouble, she was way out of line, I told her several things in conversation and she betrayed me, her own coworkers agreed with me, what she did was wrong, the whole process was very hard, she made it worse the way she handled things was wrong, I have two friends who are agents and said she was wrong as well. As far as I'm concerned she did not deserve to have as much as she made. She for sure did not earn it. She is not a good agent like most people think. If you'd like more context. Feel free to contact me.

      The fact that this company keeps someone like Alexandra ** on payroll shows the worth of this company. Alex is a horrible person that I actually had to discuss legal options with what to do with her. She knows how to royally ruin you within guidelines of the law. She is a horrible realtor that is only out there for herself. I would recommend all to stay far away from her and her company.

      Working with Steve ** to purchase our first home was an exceptional experience—truly phenomenal and remarkably stress-free. From our initial search to closing day, Steve demonstrated unwavering professionalism, deep expertise, and genuine care. He addressed every question and concern with prompt, thoughtful guidance, making the entire process feel seamless and empowering. His insights into the homebuying journey were not only informative but also reassuring, helping us navigate each step with confidence. We are profoundly grateful for the support and dedication Steve brought to this milestone in our lives. For anyone considering buying a home—especially for the first time—we wholeheartedly recommend Steve **. You’ll be in excellent hands.

      Our realtor Jenny ** was absolutely amazing!! She was great with communication and finding houses that fit what we were looking for. She was on top of making sure we were kept in the loop about what was going on and the next steps in purchasing our home. We were extremely impressed on how easy and fast it was to purchase our home with her as our realtor. Would hands down recommend her to anyone.

      Bill ** was our real estate agent on the current sale and purchase of our new home. He was amazing to work with. Bill took his time explaining everything to us to ensure we understood before proceeding. He worked around our schedules for scheduling the open house and again with appointments to see other properties. He listened to our wishes for our next home and was able to find the perfect home with ALL of our wishes!! He was professional at every step of the way and was our advocate when needed. I have recommended him to several family members and friends.

      My family commissioned Henry ** to sell my father's home and he did a terrific job! My father's home was in Pleasant Gap and I live in Montana and Henry did a great job bridging the distance! Henry was quick to respond, gave my family informed advice, and got the house sold quickly. I highly recommend Henry and would use him again for selling or buying!
