He made a commission for absolutely nothing.

It was my first place so lesson learned, won't happen next year when we buy again.
I think its 5%. I know when we bought our place a few years ago our agent had to split it with the selling agent so she only got 2.5% but if there is only one agent involved, they would get the entire 5%.

edit..apparently there is no set rate, and it can vary.
