***Home Seller Program***
Discount Commissions
Because our home marketing costs are not proportional to the price of a home
we don't charge a flat commission like other real estate brokers. Instead, we
use a sliding scale where the commission percentage decreases for more expensive
homes. First, we help you determine the appropriate cooperating commission to
offer buyer's agents. Then we determine the "sell side" commission based upon
the price of the home. The end result is that instead of charging 6% we
can charge as little as 3 1/4% for more expensive homes.
Full Service
Full service doesn't have to mean full price! Lucid Realty will provide you
with better home marketing services than a
traditional broker but for a lot less money. Most traditional real estate
agents would like you to believe that they provide some "unique",
"comprehensive" marketing program for homes. The fact of the matter is that any
true professional trying to justify a high commission is going to offer you the
same basic package consisting of some variation of the following:
- MLS Listing
- Professional photos
- Virtual tours
- Public open houses
- Broker open houses
- Print ads
- Distribution of your listing on over 100 Web sites
- Perhaps an "exclusive" relationship with Yahoo! Real Estate
- Your home's own Web site
It turns out that some of these home marketing programs are bogus,designed to
simply pacify you, justify a higher commission, or help the agent/broker
generate more business for themselves at your expense. And despite all this
bluster the #1 complaint of home sellers is that their realtor doesn't keep them
informed about what is happening on the sale of their home.
At Lucid Realty we can match anything that a traditional real estate broker
provides - and then some - but we do it for a lower commission and you don't
need to sacrifice the personal touch of a traditional broker. Most importantly,
we promise to provide you with regular feedback and insights about your
sale.
