Dear California Home Seller,
Residential real estate continues to be a solid investment.
Markets across many California
communities
are reporting record sales and low inventory.
Real estate has
never been worth more! If you're thinking of selling your real
estate, now is the time!
Take a few minutes and let us show you how to take advantage
of our real estate listing service. In less than five minutes
you will know exactly, step by step, everything you need to
know to sell your property easily and with great savings.
Full
service traditional real estate will crush your equity
If you're sincere about selling your property, we promise
you will be impressed, excited and eager to get started with
our flat fee MLS program.
The listing programs offered by traditional 6% real estate
brokers is not for everyone. Until just a few years ago it
was the only option when listing for maximum exposure. Realty-Mart
America is a pioneer of flat fee MLS and has listed several hunred
million dollars worth of real estate since 1999 with remarkable success.
If you have experience in selling property or experience with the
selling process all you may need is the MLS to market your home or
vacant land. Traditional Realtors don't want you to know how easy
it really is to market your property for maximum exposure. Traditional
brokers have tried to keep the power of the Multiple Listing Service
a secret, telling home sellers the MLS is only one of many ways they
will market your property.
A powerful and remarkable marketing tool like the Multiple
Listing Service (MLS) has been a sure-fire success formula
used by listing agents for decades. The effectiveness of the
MLS is what sells real estate better than any other marketing or advertising
source.
The truth is, home sellers have had very little success
in selling their real estate by owner in the past because of
the lack of marketing options and limited flexibility from agents.
Our flat fee MLS program has changed all of that and today sellers
have access to the greatest home selling tool known as the Multiple
Listing Service (MLS), without paying a 6% commission.
The
MLS Revealed...
The Multiple Listing Service is the most powerful marketing
tool ever created to sell real estate. It's time tested and
proven! Today more than 70% of all homes are sold as a direct
result of the systems enormous targeted exposure.
What
is the MLS? And what can it do for me when selling by owner?
The MLS is an extensive database of information on real
estate properties listed by local Realtors. A tool available
exclusively to the 950,000 members of the National Association
of Realtors.
The Multiple Listing Service provides the biggest marketing
advantage in selling houses. When a potential buyer contacts
a Realtor regarding a home purchase, the agent will search the
"MLS" for properties meeting their criteria. If a Realtor finds
a buyer for your home you will only pay a 3% commission, or whatever
percentage you offer, of the sales price.
This kind of exposure is not available anywhere else...

HERE TO FIND OUT IF WE HAVE A LOCAL BROKER AFFILIATE IN YOUR COMMUNITY!
There are hundreds of local mls boards throughout
the United States. Real estate brokers must be a member of
the local association where they list properties. Realty-Mart America
and founder Randy Bess has put together an affiliate network consisting
of flat fee MLS real estate brokers in about 30 states. When you
sign up for flat fee service in any region of our coverage
area, one of our broker affiliates in your neighborhood will
actually list your property on your local MLS system and of course
you will have national exposure on Realtor.com.
If you are selling property in our coverage area you cannot
afford not to be listed on the MLS. The MLS offers proven results
to homesellers, brokers and agents.
By
using our flat fee service you will avoid paying the typical
3% to list your propety.
To gain the greatest exposure and let the majority of qualified
buyers know that your real estate is available you will need
to be listed on the MLS.
Listing your property on the MLS informs the local Realtors
that your home is available and that their commission, usually
3%, is protected when they deliver a qualified buyer.
You see...Realtors usually avoid for sale by owner properties
because they are working with buyers and have no written
agreement to be compensated. If the seller has not agreed in
writing to pay a commission, the buyer could cut the agent right
out of the deal and negotiate directly with the seller.
A startling thought you say...it happens!
With flat fee MLS service, the seller has agreed in writing
to pay a commission, usually 2% or 3%, making everyone happy!
That's
all it takes to put a massive sales force to work for you!
If you'd like to save a great deal of money, sell your
home quickly, not have to deal directly with buyers, and just sit back, relax,
and review offers then this might be the most important letter
you'll ever read.
Here's why:
When you say that you need to keep your hard-earned equity,
sell your home for top dollar, save time and avoid frustration!
You've just described the benefits of our flat fee MLS home
listing service!
Now, we know you're probably skeptical. That's normal and
healthy. Let us give you five good reasons we can back up
what we claim:
Five
Reasons To Believe What We Say
- This is not a typical for sale by owner program
that places your home on an outdated web site with a worthless
virtual tour. This is the Realtor MLS which represents the
largest trade organization in the world, the National Association
of Realtors!
- According to the latest National Association
of Realtors (NAR) home seller survey, fifty percent of sellers first
try to sell their home without using a listing Realtor to avoid
paying an average six percent commission. The survey also shows
that only sixteen percent of sellers actually sell their home without
exposure in the MLS. And many of them end up giving away their
commission savings to the buyer to close the deal.
- The power of the MLS is cooperation and compensation.
The majority of listed homes do not sell by the listing office.
In actuality, most sales involve two different offices, a listing
office and a selling office. This means that it is not as important
which office the home seller selects to list the property as
it is that the home is listed on the MLS.
- National studies show that more than 65% of potential
home buyers start their home search on the Internet. And for
you, the seller, to get your home advertised on the top sites
like Realtor.com where home buyer's shop you must be listed on
the MLS first.
- As a member of the National Association of Realtors
our Affiliate brokers are bound by the standards and ethics
of the association to conduct business in an honest and
ethical manner. As a licensed real estate brokers there are
extensive laws that we must follow to serve and protect the best
interest of the people.
Here
is a summary of the flat fee MLS benefits you receive
- Listing on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS)
...Maximum exposure! Your
home listing will be available to every local Realtor. You have
just hired the largest targeted sales force in your community to
locate a ready, able and willing buyer.
- Working with Realtors...Save time, effort and frustration. Sit back and
let your local Realtors bring you the offers rather than you spending
time and money trying to find qualified prospects on your own.
- Listing on Realtor.com...Expose your home to potential buyers throughout the
world. Realtor.com is the official website of the National Association
of Realtors. When you list on the MLS your property is automatically
displayed on Realtor.com.
- Security feature...Realtors will be showing your home to pre-screened
buyers. A big fear for many people selling by-owner is allowing perfect
strangers into their homes. It can be very dangerous if you are showing
property alone and not working with a professional Realtor who has been
trained to qualify the prospect.
- Pre-Qualified buyers who can afford your
home...Most Realtors will
qualify their buyer prospects before they load them into the car
and start the tour. You won't have to deal with qualifying the buyer
or asking sensitive questions about their finances. Many Realtors
insist that their buyer prospect get pre-approved from a mortgage
broker before they start looking for a home. It's always a good idea
to insist on a pre-approval letter from the buyer's lender when they
make an offer. Why take your property off the market if you don't
know if they can afford your property.
- The Marketing plan...The MLS is the best marketing plan for selling your
residential real estate. Unless you intend to also try and to sell it
on your own, you won't need to put together a long drawn out and expensive
marketing plan. The MLS is the most powerful system ever developed and
is the direct result of more than 70% of all home sales.
- Realtor is the intermediary...You won't have to deal directly with the buyer as
we have mentioned. This makes the showing and negotiating
process much more effective. Everyone usually feels more comfortable
with this process.
- More and better quality Buyers...Serious buyers like to work with Realtors. It doesn't
cost them anything to have their hand held throughout the
entire sales process. The buyer is chauffeured to see homes
that meet their requirements. They are told what they need to do
and when they need to do it throughout the closing process. And
it doesn't cost the buyer anything for this special treatment.
- Realtors will call you to show your home...This is a great benefit for you and for Realtors.
You are listed on the MLS as the contact person and Realtors
will call you directly to schedule a showing of your home and
to ask questions about the property. It saves a lot of time for everyone.
When the potential buyer has a question the agent can get the correct
answer immediately by calling you.
- The MLS works full time 24/7...When you try to sell your home by-owner it is usually
a part time effort but Realtors presumably work day and night
searching for properties that satisfy their buyers needs.
- Eliminates unscrupulous phone calls from
listing agents...Once you've
listed your property on the MLS you will not receive any more
solicitation calls from agents trying to list your home.
Its against MLS rules!
- Eliminates unscrupulous phone calls from so called
investors...
- Unless you're running FSBO adds in your local
newspaper you will not be getting those annoying calls from
people who just bought a "no money down program" from a late
night infomercial and want to steal your property
- Inspections monitored by Realtors...Staying on top of the required inspections and closing
requirements can be tedious work when selling by-owner. However,
you will have the buyer's agent making sure all Inspections are
ordered and that all deadlines are met. They don't get paid if
the deal doesn't close!
- Net more money from the sale...Statistics show that homes sold on the MLS sell
for a higher price. Buyers are NOT trying to get a rebate
from you on your commission savings like with for sale by owner
properties. WHY? Because they thank that you are
already paying a full commission and that there is no huge savings
to take advantage of.
Flat fee MLS is a great alternative to traditional real
estate listing services with proven results. Offering Realtors
a commission, usually 2% or 3%, to bring you a qualified buyer
makes the whole FSBO process work with absolute ease.
You see, most people don't mind paying a commission to
a buyers agent and that is what our program is all about. This program eliminates
half of the typical 6% commission listing agents usually
charge. Our goal is to help you sell your home and keep your
equity in your pocket.
A 3% commission just to list your home is a lot of money.
It really proves to be an overwhelming amount when you break
it down.
While the commission is based on the selling price, its
actually paid from your equity. A $6000.00 listing commission
is 3% of a $200,000 home.
If
your equity is $40,000, the actual commission becomes 15%.
The commission is based on the sales price and is deducted from
your equity in the home at closing.
Offering a Realtor 2% or 3% on the MLS to sell your home
puts thousands of local agents to work to find a qualified
and eager buyer for your property.
Paying a Realtor 3% just to list your property on the MLS
is an outrageous amount of money when compared to our low
flat fee charge.
Don't
take my word for it. Listen to what our customers say!
| Dear
Randy
I am writing to thank you for your services in the recent
sale of my house in Wilton Manors. As you know, the market
had been a bit "soft" after the 9/11 attacks and I was experiencing
some "softness" selling the house using a full commission broker.
Because of the flexibility you allow sellers regarding
the listing of their property and acting as their own listing broker, I was
able to save nearly $11000.00 in real estate commission, and therefore offer
the home at a more competitive price.
After engaging your agency, I had 3 people bidding on the
property within one month and it ultimately went to contract
at very near my asking price.
I can not recommend your services enough. I am a highly
satisfied customer and will most certainly be knocking at
your door for all my future Florida real estate needs.
Sincerely,
Richard Arbach
Randy:
I tried the link and our house looks great! Thank you so
much. I don't think the other people who wanted to do this
for me for 3%, could have done more!
It has been great working with you, and I shall definitely
recommend your services to my friends.
Elizabeth Theron
Randy,
Thanks for all your help. This was one of the best business
decisions I've ever made. I'm really excited about this type
of service.
You gave us the kind of advertising that has never been
available to homeowners before, the MLS! I am a very satisfied
customer.
Thanks,
Gary Harper
Dear
Randy,
Without hesitation, we would highly recommend your service
to anyone who is looking to save money. We tried to sell
our home for about two months by placing a for sale sign in the
front yard and running ads in the local paper.
When we listed our home with you on a flat fee basis we
never expected to sell it in only three days, at the full
asking price. Thanks for introducing us to such a great concept!
Thank
you so much, Bryan Carpenter
Randy,
This is to inform you that I have a contract on my house.
I would like to take it off the market. Thanks for your help.
The MLS listing is what did it. I will call you today to confirm
this and fax a copy of the contract to you if you like.
Jim Gibbons
I want to let you know that I have a contract on the condo
I listed through your service. This is the second time I
sold property with your MLS service instead of a conventional
Realtor arrangement and both times it worked great. The buyer's
Realtor showed it and made me a full price offer on the day the listing
came out.
Thanks,
Jim
Gibbons
