  • The agent earns 9,000 before VAT. VAT adds 1800.00, bringing the total fee to 10800.00.
  • VAT is levied on the commission, not on the property price itself. The agent collects the VAT and remits it to the tax authority.
  • The seller retains 96.4% of the sale price (289200.00) after paying the gross commission.
