Why this reference : Payotte's verified real estate broker for Richmond Hill, selected on public data (5/5 across 259 Google reviews) with a genuine local presence. Payotte score: 61/100.
Why 61/100, and not 100?
The points below are not taken away from Key Group: they are simply not yet awarded, for lack of a public source to verify them. Payotte estimates nothing and invents nothing.
- Start year unknown. No Canadian register publishes a licence issue date. We leave these points aside rather than estimate seniority.
- No licence number published on this profile. The body is named, but without a number a reader cannot confirm the registration in the register themselves.
- Local presence in Richmond Hill not confirmed. No public source proves how many files were closed in this specific sector — only the professional holds that figure.
Is this profile about you?
Your score is public, criterion by criterion. Up to 35 points are out of reach — not because you don't deserve them, but because no public source lets us verify them. From you, we need:
- up to 30 pts — the year you began practising — no Canadian register publishes it
- up to 3 pts — your licence number, so we can confirm it in the register
- up to 2 pts — your presence in Richmond Hill: files closed there over the past twelve months, and the address of the office that serves it
We verify, we date it, we publish. It is free, and it buys no ranking — only an accurate profile.

What does it cost in Richmond Hill?
On Richmond Hill's reference price ($1,160,000), a 4.32% commission comes to roughly $50,112, plus tax.
$1,160,000 × 4.32% = $50,112. The 4.32% is what the seller pays in total: 2.16% per agent on average, and there are two — the listing agent and the buyer's (rate-my-agent 2026 study, 979 verified transactions).
No province sets a rate: commission is negotiable, and the study records spreads from under 1% to over 3.5% per agent. This is an order of magnitude, not a price list.
