What Is Your
Commission Rate (Limited Service or Full Service)?
Currently, there are basically two
types of real estate service models: limited-service
brokers with reduced fees and full-service
brokers charging full commission, usually 6%. Elite Realty Services is a full service company.
My commission is negotiable, and you will always
get my full attention to your needs.
Here is the definition
of
"Limited":
(1) confined or restricted within certain limits; (2)
not attaining the highest goals or achievement; (3)
having only mediocre talent or range of ability.
Here is an excerpt from an article by Bernice Ross -
Inman News Columnist, you may find useful in deciding
which service best meets your needs:
"...Casting Seeds of Doubt about Full-Service Brokerage
Aggressive advertising by limited-service brokers
has cast a seed of doubt as to the actual value of full
service. "Why spend more when we can put your property
in the MLS and in the paper? We can sell your house and
save you thousands!" This approach has caused the buying
public to conclude that agents are compensated primarily
for marketing the property. Experienced agents know this
simply is not true. Top performers who earn full
commissions always say the same thing: "Anybody can sell
a property. It's getting it to close that's the issue."
Furthermore, there's an assumption that all brokers are
created equal with respect to negotiation ability. The
firm that offers reduced services for a reduced fee
would like the public to believe they will have the same
outcome as a full-service broker. Tim Burrell, a highly
successful agent who closed more than 200 transactions
in Southern California and North Carolina, shared some
interesting statistics in this regard. Tim went to the
MLS and found almost all of the expired listings
were listed with limited-service brokers.
Tim also tracks what percentage of the sales price his
properties sell for as compared to those properties
listed with other agents. Tim found that while the
discounter might sell for 98 percent to 102 percent of
list price in Southern California, he was selling his
listings at 110 percent to 115 percent of list price. I
have heard the same story from top performers all over
the country. When they investigate the expired and
the sales prices for limited-service brokerage sales,
limited service almost always results in the seller
netting less money... If discounting commissions is
such a good idea, why do discounters/limited-service
brokers offer their clients a full-commission option?"
- Bernice
Ross, co-owner of Realestatecoach.com.
So, which would you prefer – full-service
brokerage that will help you obtain the highest possible
price in the shortest time or 'limited' services,
which by definition means 'mediocre' and 'not attaining
the highest goals or achievement'? The choice is yours;
who would you like to handle your most valuable
financial asset?
Are You tempted by
those agents who claim to offer full Service with
very low commissions?:
Words of Wisdom Long Time
Ago Still Hold True Today
Prices Poem
John Ruskin (1819-1900)
”It's unwise to pay too much. But it's worse to pay
too little. When you pay too much, you lose a little
money, that is all. When you pay too little you
sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought
was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do.
The common law of business balances prohibits paying a
little and getting a lot. It can't be done.
If you deal with the lowest bidder it is well to add
something for the risk you run.
And if you do that, you will have enough to pay for
something better.
There is hardly anything in the world that someone can't
make a little worse and sell a little cheaper - and
people who consider price alone are this man's lawful
prey.”
John Ruskin’s words still hold
true in many situations today. For examples, bidding for
the lowest price possible to have your roof fixed, but
you might end up paying more in the end, because the
person offered the lowest price might not get the job
done right the first time. Or the agent who says he can
sell your home for a very low commission might not
provide the services necessary to sell your house
quickly at a better price.
For FSBOs (For Sale
By Owners) - Why
should I pay an agent when I can sell the house myself
and save the commissions?
But who really saves when an owner
sells without an agent? The Buyer. Buyers who approach
owners selling their own homes will usually want to
reduce any offer they might make by at least the amount
of the commission, even though the price might have been
set to reflect all or part of this savings.
The "For Sale by Owner" sign usually
attracts bargain hunters, Lookie Lous and unqualified
buyers.
Owners who understand the benefits of
professional representation are less likely to resist
paying a reasonable fee for services offered by agents.
Here are the important benefits you get for your fee:
- Help and advice on making your home
more saleable
- Promotion and advertising (paid by
the agent)
- Multiple-listing benefits for more
exposure
- Qualifying of all prospects
- Freedom to enjoy your time
- Advice on offers and counteroffers
- Problem solving during escrow
- Compliance with the laws &
regulations -
