WRONG!
THE TRUTH:
There indeed is a way to
NOT pay a commission to your listing agent. And it's very simple: all
you need is an agent who does NOT work on a commission basis! An agent
who does NOT charge its seller-clients for its services via a
'percentage commission' on the sales-price!
Enter FRR. The real estate brokerage company
that has revolutionized the industry by employing a system in which
seller-clients are charged for professional real estate services in a
DIFFERENT and much FAIRER and more PROFESSIONAL way than the current
'commission system' to which 'traditional' agencies subscribe.
And we do this by UNBUNDLING the roster of
services that are typically covered by the single, industry-standard,
percentage-commission-payment that's ultimately due to the listing
agent at the closing. And by alternatively offering you, the seller,
these respective seller-services on an INDIVIDUAL, PER-SERVICE
basis--with a 'fixed-fee' for each. A 'fixed-fee' that's linked to the
actual VALUE of the individual service being provided--as well as
linked to the TIME spent by us on your behalf--rather than to the
arbitrariness of a variable, non-value-based and non-time-based
payment that's illogically indexed to a particular sale-price. (Which
when you think about it, serves the 'agent's' interests more than it
serves your own!)
With the FRR system, it's YOU who have the
choice of how much YOU want from your listing/seller-agent in the way
of service(s)--and you in-turn pay ONLY for these SPECIFIC SERVICE(S)
you choose! Instead of finding yourself instant-victim to the
much-too-high, 'one-price-fits-all' system that the standard
commission-system employed by 'traditional' agents automatically
awards to the realtor.
How does our system work? Well, a seller's
arrangement with FRR begins by our immediately WAIVING THE 3%
LISTING-AGENT COMMISSION to which we would normally be entitled at the
closing. Which is the equivalence of entitling YOU, the seller (and
the equivalence of YOUR receiving) an INSTANT REBATE of the typical 3%
commission-on-the-sales-price that you would otherwise ALWAYS pay to a
'traditional' agent who's compensated via the standard
'commission-system.'
And when we waive our claim to the listing
agent commission, we in-turn enter into a FIXED-PRICE service-fee
arrangement with you. An arrangement through which you pay ONLY for
the SPECIFIC SERVICES you had PRE-DESIGNATED us to perform on your
behalf. Which we in-turn make available to you on an 'a la carte
basis,' so that you can pick-and-choose the single-one or group that
EXACTLY fits YOUR individual needs.
It's that simple. And you'll quickly see that
this unique FRR arrangement promises to cost you FAR, FAR LESS that
the typical '3% of the sales-price charge' that you would ordinarily
pay when using a 'conventional' real estate agent to list and rep your
home. And FAR, FAR, LESS even when you do sign-on with us for ALL of
our individual, seller-oriented services.
In addition to the the HUGE SALES-COST
SAVINGS you're virtually guaranteed to generate for yourself by using
FRR as your selling agent (which translates into keeping much, much
more of the actual sales-proceeds for yourself ), you'll ALSO quickly
see that with FRR representing you, you'll be getting a host of OTHER
highly significant and invaluable benefits as well.
Important Note For Home Sellers Who Are Planning To Purchase
Another Home Within The Same Local Area |
|
Be aware that a 'traditional' listing agent MAY accept a reduced
commission to list your home IF you're purchasing another home
in the same local area and IF you simultaneously agree to
sign-up with them as your 'buying agent.' Why? Because in
exchange for the small discount they'll give you on their
'listing-agent commission,' they'll immediately set themselves
up to make a SEPARATE 3% COMMISSION when you buy your new home
through them. Not a bad deal for them: give a little break on
the 'listing' end for the home being SOLD, and guarantee the
separate full-commission they'll earn from you on your 'BUYING'
end!
But remember that
with FRR, you don't receive just a mere 'reduction' on the
listing-agent commission---you get the ENTIRE LISTING COMMISSION
WAIVED (as explained above). And if you indeed ARE planning to
purchase a new home in the same local area, do remember too that
FRR also represents 'buyers' in a similar way that it represents
sellers. That is, NO COMMISSIONS!
Which means that when you initially list with us, not only will
we waive our listing-agent commission and save you thousands on
the costs of SELLING your current home--but if you decide to BUY
your new home through FRR as well, we'll ALSO REBATE THE FULL
BUYER-AGENT COMMISSION TO YOU (typically 3%) that any
'traditional' agent' would be awarded from the seller of the
home that you're planning to purchase. Bottom line: with a
simultaneous sell-and-buy you can save DOUBLE with FRR as your
agent. For more information
