The True Cost of Hiring a Real Estate Agent in Norway

29. desember 2025

Selling or buying property in Norway can feel overwhelming, especially with the paperwork, legal requirements, and negotiations involved. Many people turn to real estate agents (eiendomsmegler) to simplify the process. But how much does it actually cost to hire one, and is it worth the expense? Let’s break down the true cost of working with a real estate agent in Norway.

1. Commission Fees (Provisjon)

The main cost of hiring a real estate agent in Norway is the commission fee. This is usually a percentage of the final selling price, typically ranging between 1% and 3%.

For example, if you sell a property for NOK 5 million, a 2% commission would amount to NOK 100,000.

The percentage can vary depending on the region, the property’s value, and the level of competition among agents.

2. Fixed Costs and Administration Fees

In addition to commission, agents often charge fixed fees for administrative work. These may include:

Marketing package (photography, floor plans, online listings, drone shots) – NOK 10,000 to 20,000.

Legal paperwork and contracts – usually NOK 5,000 to 10,000.

Prospectus and printed materials – NOK 2,000 to 5,000.

3. Extra Marketing Costs

Some sellers opt for additional exposure to make their property stand out. This can include:
