Is the Homebuyer agent commissions (NAR) settlement legit?

Yes. It is a court-supervised class action settlement, and the only official place to file is www.homebuyersettlement.com. OwedList verified it against the official site on Oct 16, 2026. Filing is always free.

Estimated amount depends on the commission you paid. The total fund is $120M, and in most settlements the final amount depends on how many valid claims come in. Every figure OwedList shows is an estimate, never a promise.

When do payments go out?

After the claim deadline passes, the court holds a final approval hearing. Payments usually go out one to six months after final approval, unless an appeal delays them.

Is a class action settlement payment taxable?

It depends on what the payment compensates. Payments that reimburse a loss are generally not taxed; interest and some other payments can be. See our guide on settlement taxes, and ask a tax professional about your case.
