New Way to list real esate to sell faster

Posted 04-13-2014 at 06:16 AM by Marine1984


[I][FONT=Times New Roman][B][U]Using a $300,000 list price example[/U][/B][/FONT][/I]

[B][I][FONT=Times New Roman]The old way of listing[/FONT][/I][/B]

[FONT=Times New Roman]3% Commission = $9,000 to theListing Agent[/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman]3% Commission = $9,000 to theBuyer’s /Selling Agent[/FONT]


[B][I][FONT=Times New Roman]The New way that works much faster![/FONT][/I][/B]

[FONT=Times New Roman]1% Commission = $3,000 to theListing Agent[/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman]5% commission = $15,000 tothe Buyer’s/ Selling Agent[/FONT]


[FONT=Times New Roman][B][U]FACT: [/U][/B]The likelihood of Listing Agents selling their own listing is [U]very[/U] rare! The vast majority of homes are sold by Buyer’s agents who sell other agent’slistings. Therefore, offering a 5% or even 7% commission ([I]vs. dropping the sales price which shows desperation) [/I]to any Buyer’s Agent can [U]Greatly increase traffic[/U] on your home and the chances it will sell quickly and for a higher price![/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman]It’s only human nature if you think about it, a Realtor searching your area in the MLS for homes to show their buyer sees homes paying 2%, 2.5% and 3%, then suddenly your listing grabs their attention paying 5% = [B]$15,000![/B] You can bet that Realtor will make sure your home will be on the list to show their buyer! And I bet there will be just a little more positive things said about your home…ya think? [/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman]There are Realtors who will list your home for as low as 1% allowing you to offer 5% to the Buyer’s Agent ([I]or even 7% more vs. dropping the price the same amount[/I]) to sell your home quickly and ifthey can sell your home, then more power to them as they can get paid the whole 6% or 7% for finding a buyer![/FONT]
