| *NEWS FLASH FOLKS!!* Did you know, that when you list your property with Discount Broker Realty, that it will also be advertised on over 100 different websites, including almost all of our local competitors websites, including Meybohm, Coldwell Banker, Prudential and ERA. Also National websites including Realtor.com, Zillow.com, Trulia.com, Yahoo Real Estate, HotPads.com, Cyberhomes.com (AOL), Homefinder.com, and Frontdoor.com. We just get you there for less! It's called IDX or Broker reciprocity. Broker Reciprocity is a system where brokers, give each other permission to advertise their active listings on each other's websites. Clients who are selling their homes benefit by having their listings advertised on websites throughout the Georgia & South Carolina areas, at no additional cost to them, no matter where it's listed, (And what amount of commission you are paying!) In addition to offering site visitors access to all local listings, one main benefit of the reciprocal display policy is that it enhances a broker’s ability to obtain and maintain first contact with consumers, increasing their chances of receiving a commission for finding and servicing the buyer clients, that initially searched for a home on their website. Discount Broker Realty inc, is a full service Real Estate Company that uses the exact same multiple listing service, real estate websites, magazines, books, yard signs, lock boxes and newspapers, that its competitors use but only charge you the Seller, commission rates as low as 3.75% to a maximum of 4.75% instead of commissions which by law, are always negotiable and can vary in amount from one property to the next and can be as an example as high as 5 - 10%. "How can they do that?", you may ask. Discount Broker Realty inc, is a locally owned and operated company that is not affiliated with any Bank, Insurance Company, National or International franchise organization that may require referral fees, franchise fees or national advertising fees. We work out of our own commercially zoned home in beautiful Downtown Aiken, our low overhead allows us to seriously compete for your business. Here's how our average commission structure is laid out. Homes under $150,000 we list for 4.75%. If we sell the listing ourselves (No need to split the commission with another Real Estate Company!) we reduce our commission to 4.50%. Homes over $150,000 we list for 4.50% if we sell the listing ourselves we reduce that commission to 4.25%. Homes over $300,000 we list for 4.25% and if we sell it ourselves we reduce the commission to 4.00%. Homes over $500,000 we list for 4.00% and if we sell it ourselves we reduce the commission to 3.75%. As an incentive to the other real estate companies, we always offer them the "lion's share", 2.5 % of the sales price on the Aiken MLS, so they are also very motivated to show and sell your home. Discount Broker Realty simply reduces it's side of the commission, to as low as 1.5 % to get more listings and to help our seller's, price and sell their homes closer to actual market value, a price that obviously more lenders and appraisers can qualify buyers for, in these credit crunch times. Discount Broker Realty will, of course, list your home on the Aiken MLS, www.AIKENMLS.com which automatically sends your listing to all the qualified buyers working with all the other agents and other companies that use the Aiken MLS auto-notification system, which e-mails their buyers listings whenever properties come available meeting their requirements. We'll also advertise your home in the Real Estate Book, which is posted on www.TheRealEstateBook.com and Aiken Standard's Aiken Home Book, which can also be viewed at www.aikenstandard.com TRY US FOR FREE, IF WE DON’T BRING YOU AN ACCEPTABLE OFFER, YOU OWE US EXACTLY NOTHING! |
