Methods and systems for executing a real estate plan for addressing transaction costs relative to a closing of a real estate transaction between a real estate buyer and a real estate seller. The methods and systems facilitate a negotiation between the real estate buyer and the real estate seller of a real estate plan commission fee payable to a real estate plan agent at the closing of the real estate transaction, the real estate commission fee being representative of one or more duties of the real estate plan agent in executing the real estate plan. The methods and systems further generate a real estate plan agreement between the real estate buyer and the real estate seller with the real estate plan agreement specifying the real estate plan commission fee.
