You Have Options

1. With the agent or broker listing
your property. There are no set rates, none! It's negotiable.

2. Your agent, I hope it would be me, will be negotiating in your behalf with the buyer's agent's
commission, what they'll be paid. What they get paid needs to be based on the terms of the offer. Everything is on the table, they will ask, you and I will negotiate. New rules on how agent's get paid, click This new law has been a blessing for the seller. An anti-trust violation corrected after many years of intimidation at all levels. Broker and Broker, Agent and Agent, Buyer's and Seller. That all stopped 8-17-24

3. The terms and conditions with
the buyer concerning your property. What they end up paying you for your property. There are a lot of tools to negotiate with. Every thing from A-Z has to be negotiated for your best interest, not the best interest of the agent, but a meeting of the minds of how we are paid.

4. If I bring the buyer to the table. I can not say or do anything that will be detrimental to either side. This is called, Limited Agency. I do not double dip, if I bring the buyer your costs will be less then if someone else brings a buyer.

With 44 years in this industry what
I see is this, most seller's neglect
and blindly go along with what
the listing agent's costs will be,
and what the buyer's agent
commission will be.
Don't do that.

Commission rates are negotiable,
from zero to as high as the sky,
and every transaction is
completely different, there are
no set commission fee's, NONE!

No one will explain what's
behind the curtain better then me.

Here are three things out of
multiple things I do when
selling your home right the
first time....

One
Lets talk yard signs.
Is the sign advertising and marketing
the house or the agent and the brokerage, remember I'm
Untraditional. Is the sign so elegant you can't read it a block or two away or even 10 feet away in front of the house. Is the call to action too much agent / brokerage and not enough house?

I was guilty of this in the 1990's
and early 2000's there was no
benefit in my opinion to the
seller, none.

Think of this, buyer's and seller's
are in this game for themselves, they
do not care about the agent or broker,
that's reality. I'm here to help you
make rational decisions in the
process. The signs, and the deal
should be focused on the house being
sold. So, my signage might be boring,
but the sign get results.

Most of the time you can not recognize the purpose behind the traditional signs until you are 10 feet in front of the home. Traditional agent's and brokers focus more on the agent or brokerage, enchantment magic, creating charm. My signage has no charm but the charm of the house as they view the links given on the signs.

I had to make a change benefiting
the seller and buyer more than
me, me, me or brokerage,
brokerage, brokerage. You can
see my signs 3 to 5 blocks
away, you know it's a home for
sale, without any doubt, you see,
you drive to it and the information
is abundant. The goal is to get
it sold quickly and with
rational decision making.

REMOVED
Easier to explain in person.
NUMBER TWO went into detail of statistics and data I have been taking since 1997 and how that data has saved my seller's thousands of dollars, not hundreds, but
thousands. You need common
sence, don't negotiate blindly.

And, Three

Generated Open Houses From
Directional Signs while
the buyer is sitting in their
car or in their kitchen.

No other Brokerage or agent
is doing this, I'm the first.
My untraditional open houses
are not like traditional
open houses of the same
mold of the 1960's
to 2025 and beyond

Those coming to them
are never stressed by
signing a roster and
buyer's are not dodging
soundbites and feelings
of entrapement, no one will
copy me on this because
it's Untraditional.

When a buyer sees an open
house directional sign and
they're not in the mood to
go to the open house, they
can park their car near
the directional sign and
watch the open house in their
car, even live in their home
to watch, and I know who
they are

If the home is vacant, you need 2-
3 open houses per week, in
person and virtual. and they
don't need to be 2-3-4 hours long.

You do not need balloons, cookies,
hamburgers, party give aways and a
bunch of fluff. My open houses can be
15, 30, 45, 60 to 120 minutes long and
without the fluff.

I have several different
kinds of open houses. Other
brokers and agents know only
one, the traditional in person
open house.

It only takes one buyer from an
open house to get your home sold.

I have had zero people show up
and I've had almost 20 show
up. All it takes is one, they don't
even need to set foot in your home.

Never Deny...

This needs to be understood...

Rookie Agent's will not understand the topics
below, and the seasoned agent's should
understand but won't, because they have been
traditional trained not to know any diifferent.
Everything is subject to the terms with a different
twist they're not use to.

When I explain this, you will clearly see that
I will be saving you not hundreds but,
thousands of dollars.

Even though you're selling, you and I will be faced
with buyer concessions. You need to understand
that curve ball will be flying in our direction,
along with buyer's real estate agent commission.
We will negoiate these things as they come our
way, and they will come our way, and the
goal is your botton line. Besides the buyer's
agent commission we will be faced with
the chart below...

At times, in order to make offers
work, agent's and brokers need to
take a hit as well, it's called a meeting
of the minds, it's called negotiating at
every level. Every offer will be
different, every commission will be
different. There are no set rates,
none. Brokerages set their own standards, standards that get acquiesced at every level.

A recent deal my seller and I
negoiated, the buyers agent
commission to the following...

$17,250
I knew what was going to take place before I even
obtained the listing. I've been doing this for 44
years. I informed my seller ahead of time, this will
take place when we get an offer. This text to the
buyer's agent went as follows when a offer was presented, Me: Seller has
instructed me to let everyone know they will entertain
any offer with buyer representation compensation per
the terms of the offer.

$11,500
Good morning. Unfortunately my broker doesn't
allow that commission split. The lowest I can go is
1.5% my buyers do not have the funds to pay both
commission and part of their closing fees. I'm waiting
for them to decide how they will proceed.

$8,625
Agent's talk too much when first presenting the
offer. I knew from the start how badly they
wanted this property. I told my seller before
obtaing the listing. The person who talks last win's
in the negotiating process. When they stated, I'm
waiting for them to decide how they will proceed. I
already knew how they were going to proceed.

$5,750
We went from $17,250 to $5,750

Everything is on the table,
everything is negotiable, everything!
And, if you do not choose to
negotiate, shame on you.

Text Roger That to 435-753-4577 so

decisions when selling your property.

Federal and State law requires the
following Agency types we
will be working with when
negotiating a transaction...

SELLER'S AGENT

A real estate agent who lists a seller's property for sale acts as the agent for
a seller only, and has fiduciary duties of loyalty, full disclosure,
confidentiality and reasonable care to that seller. In practical terms, the
Seller hires the Seller's Agent to locate a buyer and negotiate a
transaction with terms favorable to the Seller. Although the Seller's
Agent has these fiduciary duties to the Seller, the Seller's Agent is, by law,
responsible to all prospective buyers to treat them with honesty, fair
dealing, and with good faith.

BUYER'S AGENT

A real estate agent that acts as an agent for a buyer only ("Buyer's Agent")
has fiduciary duties of loyalty, full disclosure, confidentiality and
reasonable care to that buyer. In practical terms, a buyer hires a Buyer's
Agent to locate a suitable property and negotiate a transaction with
terms favorable to a buyer. Although the Buyer's Agent has these
fiduciary duties to a buyer, the Buyer's Agent is, by law, responsible to all
prospective sellers to treat them with honesty, fair dealing, and with good
faith.

LIMITED AGENT

A real estate agent can, with the prior written consent of a buyer and
seller, represent both the buyer and seller in the same transaction
("Limited Agent"). A Limited Agent has fiduciary duties to both a
buyer and a seller, but the Limited Agent is also "limited" by a
separate duty of neutrality in the negotiations between a buyer and seller.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT & WAIVER

Unrepresented Buyer Disclosure, the Buyer understands and agrees with the agency relationships confirmed herein. The Buyer voluntarily waives any cause of action against the Seller's Agent and the Company that claims that the Seller's Agent and the Company are representing the Buyer or the Buyer's interests. Furthermore, the Buyer holds the Seller's Agent and the Company harmless from all liability arising out of any claim of an agency relationship between the Buyer and Seller's Agent/Company.

This is something seller's do not understand, its difficult because they think, if the comparables come in at $600,000.00 they think they should start at $650,000.00 or even $700,000.00 and they work their way down from there and then their property sits on the market too long. Buyers are not stupid, they've been shopping, they know value, and they will skip your home because they know the sellers is in a fantasy mindset, with no reality.

2020-2023 and part of 2024, the government
messed up our economy with inflation. The result, panic buying. Today property needs to be priced right to sell right. the first 30 days the seller is in control, everyday after the 30-35 days, the buyer is in contol. Do this right the first time!
