How Much Does a Transaction Coordinator Cost in 2026?
A breakdown of TC pricing — what you'll pay for full-service, partial, and self-serve coordination, and what affects the price.
How Much Does a Transaction Coordinator Cost in 2026?
One of the first questions agents ask when considering a TC is: how much is this going to cost me? The answer depends on what level of service you need.
The typical range
Most transaction coordinators charge per file (per transaction). Here's what you'll see in the market:
| Service Level | Typical Cost | What's Included |
|---|---|---|
| Full-service TC | $350–$500 | Everything from contract to close — all parties managed, all deadlines tracked, all follow-ups sent |
| Partial TC | $100–$200 | Core coordination — deadline tracking, follow-ups, document routing. You handle key decisions |
| Self-serve platform | $25–$50 | You do the work, the platform automates reminders and follow-ups |
Some TCs charge monthly retainers instead of per-file fees, typically $500–$1,500/month. This can make sense if you're doing high volume (10+ deals/month), but for most agents, per-transaction pricing is simpler and more predictable.
What affects the price
A few things drive TC pricing up or down:
Volume: Some TCs offer discounts for agents or teams doing 5+ deals per month. If you're a solo agent doing 2–3 deals, you'll typically pay the standard per-file rate.
Market: Pricing varies by state. Nevada and California tend to be on the higher end. Midwest markets are often cheaper.
Complexity: Commercial transactions, short sales, or deals with multiple contingencies may cost more. Standard residential resales are the baseline.
Service level: The biggest price driver. Full-service (they handle everything) costs more than partial (they handle the core tasks, you stay involved on decisions).
Is it worth it?
The math usually works out clearly. A full-service TC at $350 frees up 15–20 hours of your time per deal. If your time is worth more than $17–$23/hour (and if you're a producing agent, it is), a TC pays for itself.
But the real value isn't just time saved — it's deals not lost. A missed deadline or a dropped follow-up can kill a deal. A good TC prevents that.
What Wit charges
We designed our pricing to be straightforward:
- Full-service: $300/transaction — we handle everything from contract to close
- Partial: $100/transaction — we handle deadlines, follow-ups, and document routing
- Self-serve: $30/transaction — you run it on our platform with automated assistance
No subscriptions, no monthly minimums, no hidden fees. You pay per deal.
We're able to price lower than most TCs because we use technology to handle the repetitive coordination work. The result is better service at a lower price.
