SLIDING SCALE COMMISSIONS AS LOW AS 3%
Some Tampa Bay Real Estate Agents offer
Discount Fees and you usually wind up with Discount Service and Marketing. Your home might
remain on the Market for an extended period of time. The time and expense involved for the
Listing Agent who is promoting Your Home might be spread among a dozen or more Discount
Listings. Everybody saves!
Right?
Wrong! You only save when Your Property is Sold. You'll be
paying property taxes and other expenses while your real estate sits on the market. The
other property you want to buy...may get sold before you can make an offer. Every Seller
wants to save money while getting superior service. This we understand and truly respect.
If you're a potential seller, then you've probably done your homework and contacted a
dozen Tampa Bay Real Estate Agents. You invited them over to view the property and to
consult with you. Some of the sales pitches were probably excellent and some might have
needed fine tuning. In the back of your mind you wanted to know, or you might have asked
directly - What is the commission? How much will I have to increase the listing price to
cover the commission? Our sliding commission structure is detailed below for you to make
an informed decision from the facts.
Note- from The Top Team at Charles Rutenberg Realty
We do not accept every listing.
Likewise, you do not accept every listing presentation
Some examples - Asking us to generously overprice the listing. Putting severe restrictions
on showing the property to potential buyers. Making unusual demands about marketing the
property. Misrepresentations about the property condition, etc.
