Ottawa Cash Back REALTOR® We Pay You When You Buy a Home with Equity One.

Let us help you find your dream home in Ottawa and surrounding areas, and we will pay you a portion of the commission we earn on closing.

Buy Your Next Ottawa Home and Get Cash Back at Closing.

At Equity One Real Estate, we believe Ottawa homebuyers deserve more value for their investment. Our Buyer Cash Back Program rewards you with a cash rebate at closing — simply for choosing an Equity One REALTOR® to help you find and purchase your next Ottawa home.

You’ll get full-service representation, expert negotiation, and professional support from start to finish — plus cash back in your pocket after closing.

Use our rebate calculator to see how much you’ll get back.

How It Works:

Our Buyer Cash Back Program is simple, transparent, and 100% legal in Ontario.

  1. Schedule a consultation with an Equity One REALTOR®. We’ll discuss your goals, budget, and the details of our cash back program upfront.

  2. We will help you find your dream home. As a full-service Ottawa brokerage, we’ll guide you through listings, showings, and negotiations - representing your best interests every step of the way.

  3. Close the deal and get paid. Once the transaction is complete, you’ll receive a cash rebate from the commission we collect from the listing brokerage.

Use Your Cash Back For:

  • Moving expenses

  • Home upgrades or new furniture

  • Closing costs and legal fees

  • Savings for future renovations

You choose how to use your savings - it’s your money back.

Buyer Cash back Frequently Asked Questions

  • A buyer cash back program allows your REALTOR® to share a portion of their earned commission with you after closing. It’s a simple way to save money while still receiving full professional service.

  • It depends on your home’s purchase price and the commission being offered by the listing brokerage.

    You can calculate the estimated cash back here.

  • You receive your cash back a few days after closing, usually as a cheque or electronic payment from Equity One Real Estate.

  • No. A kickback is a payment to a third party (often called a ‘birddog fee’) who simply connects two parties and has no real involvement in the transaction. A rebate, on the other hand, is a return of part of a payment to the person who actually made it.
