Aaron Peters: Utah's Leading Discount Realtor Delivers Massive Savings in 2025
--Aaron Peters, Awarded Top 500 Utah Realtor in 2025--
Aaron Peters, the founder of DiscountAgent.com, has been revolutionizing the Utah real estate market for the past two decades. As a full-service broker with NetLogix Realty, Peters challenges the traditional 6% commission model by offering low-fee listings at just 1.5% for sellers and a 50% commission rebate (1.5%) to home buyers. This approach has saved his clients nearly $2 million in commissions over the years, allowing buyers and sellers to keep more money in their pockets while receiving expert guidance on everything from MLS listings and negotiations to inspections and closings.

In 2025, Aaron continued his strong performance in the Wasatch Front area, closing 17 transactions (8 as buyer's agent and 9 as listing agent). His focus on the Salt Lake County region and surrounding areas helped clients navigate a competitive market. Below, we break down his buyer and seller results, highlighting the significant commission savings compared to the industry standard of 3%.
Home Buyer Performance in 2025: Rebates Totaling Over $115K
Aaron represented 8 home buyers in 2025, totaling $7,707,706 in sales volume. The average purchase price was $963,463, demonstrating his ability to help clients secure high-value properties.
- Highest-priced buyer transaction: A $1,380,000 2-story home in the heart of Millcreek, featuring a park-like backyard with the Millcreek stream establishing the south property line.
- Areas served: Millcreek, Herriman, South Jordan, West Jordan, Midvale, Salt Lake City (SLC), Bountiful, and Sugar House.
Commission rebate savings for buyers: Aaron rebates 50% of his commission (1.5% of the purchase price) directly to buyers at closing—often as cash, reduced closing costs, or other credits. This generated $115,615.59 in total rebates for 2025 buyers. (Calculation: 1.5% × $7,707,706.)
By choosing Aaron, these buyers effectively paid half the typical buyer's agent commission, translating to real savings on their biggest investment.
