How to file this claim

You must actively file a claim form to receive any payment — doing nothing forfeits all benefits. A separate claim form is required for each home you purchased, and proof of the transaction fees paid is mandatory. This claim form asks for 5 fields and 1 document.

  1. Confirm you purchased U.S. residential real estate listed on an MLS during your state's statutory period and that the purchase completed on or before April 14, 2026
  2. Confirm that a real estate agent or broker received a commission on your transaction
  3. Gather proof-of-payment documentation (closing statements, settlement statements, HUD statements, or other transaction documents) showing the date of purchase, address, and fees paid to all real estate agents or brokers
  4. File a separate claim form for each home purchased — online at claimform.homebuyerlitigation.com or by printing and mailing the PDF form to the settlement administrator
  5. Submit your completed claim form(s) before the claim deadline, or mail to: Home Buyer Litigation Claims Administrator, c/o A.B. Data Ltd., PO Box 173065, Milwaukee, WI 53217
  6. Choose your preferred payout method: virtual debit card, paper check, PayPal, or Venmo

What the form asks

  • — Full street address of each residential property you purchased (Your closing documents, deed, or HUD/settlement statement)
  • — The date your purchase transaction closed (Closing disclosure, HUD-1 settlement statement, or deed recording date)
  • — The total price you paid for the home as shown on your closing documents (Closing disclosure or HUD-1 settlement statement)
  • — The total broker/agent commission paid on your transaction (Closing disclosure or HUD-1 settlement statement under seller or buyer costs)
  • — The portion of the commission paid specifically to your buyer's agent or broker (Closing disclosure or HUD-1, look for the buyer's agent commission line item)

Documents you'll need

Watch out for

  • You must file a SEPARATE claim form for each home purchased — one form does not cover multiple properties
  • If you do nothing, you forfeit your settlement benefits and lose the right to sue the defendants separately
  • To opt out and preserve your right to sue, you must request exclusion before the opt-out deadline, not the claim deadline
  • Proof of payment is required — claims without supporting documentation will not be approved
  • Payment amounts are pro rata and will not be known until the administrator processes all valid claims

We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.
