Relocating to a new city can be a daunting challenge but we can vastly
simplify the home buying process for you. We will enable you to conduct your research on homes for sale in the
Chicago area while still enjoying life in your current home. We are experts at
working with home buyers remotely, leveraging the latest technology to extend your
reach. Whether your relocation is sponsored by your employer or you are handling
it on your own we make it easy for you and save you money in the process.
Home Buyer Rebates
We are unique among Chicago realtors in
rebating a portion of our seller paid commission to you. Because real estate
commissions in Chicago are so high on more expensive homes we use a sliding
scale to determine our target commission - which is a lot less than the
traditional real estate brokerages make. Everything above that amount we rebate
to you.
Our rebates vary from 20% to 50% of the
cooperating commission, depending upon the price of
the home.* For example, on a $500,000 home with a 3% cooperating commission and
no deductions or bonuses we would rebate you 25% of our commission - or $3,750.
But wait, there's more! Occasionally, the seller and/or listing broker will
offer the home buyer's agent a bonus or other incentive in addition to the
cooperating brokerage commission. We question the practice of buyer's agents
keeping this bonus for themselves and not disclosing it to home buyers. Therefore, we
include any bonuses in our rebate calculation - which is a lot more than some of
the other real estate brokers that offer rebates.
Full Service
We provide our home buyers with a complete suite of home
buyer services throughout Chicago and the surrounding suburbs. Just because we
provide our buyers with a great deal doesn't mean they have to settle for
less. We know you have access to a lot of data through the Internet so we are
determined to demonstrate to you that we provide a lot more value than the
"other agents". And since you will be conducting your home search during limited
trips to Chicago, our first priority is to ensure that your time will be used as
effectively as possible.
Before
you even visit Chicago for the first time we will provide you with a
wealth of information and work with you to effectively focus your
search. For example, we have considerable resources available on:
- Schools
- Crime
- Community areas
- Neighborhoods
- Local amenities
- Housing market statistics at numerous levels of granularity
