# Do I pay Redy before or after the closing of the sale?

## The home seller receives the cash amount upfront after signing a listing agreement with the winning agent.

Unlike traditional real estate transactions where payments are made after the sale closes, Redy operates differently. Once a home seller selects your proposal and signs a listing agreement with you, the cash amount owed to the seller is paid upfront. This means that as the winning agent, your total payment is due immediately after the seller hires you.

This upfront payment structure provides the home seller with immediate funds, offering them added financial flexibility. For agents, it ensures a transparent and straightforward process, with all payment terms clearly outlined from the start.
