Why pay a % of your sale to a Broker? You don’t have to here!!

Why do you pay a 6% commission to a Real Estate Broker to sell your property? Most realtors are on call 24/7 365 days. As all sales positions, when the phone rings, we jump and ask how high. The roller coaster of a realtor is impossible to explain, and those that have tried it and quite, understand. ALL of your time and work are upfront with zero promise of getting paid until it is closed and funded. AS with any high-risk business, there has to be a higher reward vs a standard wage.

Typical Real Estate Broker Fee 6% of the sales price of the home which is the highest expense of the real estate transaction. SABOR MLS requires a commission to be provided to a buyer’s Broker/Agent to be put on the MLS and we suggest a minimum of 1%. So for a $200,000 home sale that typically costs $12,000 commissions, you would only spend $2000 for the buyers agent and a flat fee as per your needs on the fee schedule, but our highest Flat-Fee charge is $1330.00, so you are still $8600 to go towards a vacation or a renovation for your new home.

Where to Start?

BEFORE you agree to take on these savings, there are many good things that happen when you are dealing with a full commission listing. You the “seller” are have feelings and attachment to your property and to think clearly at times with no one to give advice to you, can cost you money. You may leave lots of money on the table or make emotional decisions. BUT in today’s market that most homes are selling quickly, this stress and keeping your feelings aside may be worth it. That is the reason that we had decided to offer this flat fee service. Saves you money and puts you in full control.

WHAT is the value of your Property?

Here are a few things you need to know before you start. The county appraisal district may NOT have your property properly appraised. Zillow, Trulia, etc are Guestimates, not real values. Getting a professional opinion of what your property is worth is a good place to start. A Broker Comparative Market Analysis from our company is $250.00 and could potentially make you money since they are very inexpensive. An appraiser will charge typically $500+, but still well worth it. BUT JUS?T so you don’t misunderstand. A BUYERS LENDER will require their own appraisal and your appraisal is not able to be used for the sale of your property (NORMALLY). Always ASK!
