Broker Assistance with offers for $1200.00
FIRST, please read the Agency pamphlet "Real Estate Brokerage in Washington State"
When an offer comes in on your property and the buyer is being represented by a real estate agent, I will assist you throughout the transaction. There will be instructions in the listing for agents to email the offer to both my brokerage and the Seller. I will email you once I have reviewed the offer. As a broker, there are changes that I may recommend to the contract and there will be changes you will want to make as well. I will prepare the counter offer to be emailed to all owners to electronically sign.
I will order preliminary title and have it delivered to the buyer's agent, make sure escrow is set up and earnest money is receipted for, communicate with the lender, appraiser, etc. I will set up a timeline and email this to you so you can do your part in a timely manner.
Once the inspection response comes back from the buyer, I will be in contact with you again via email to discuss corrections that the buyer has requested, if any. Again, I will prepare the inspection response based on how you want to respond and send to you for e-signature. I will make sure that all disclosures have been delivered in accordance with law and the contract. If you receive multiple offers, then I will work with you to get the most money using an escalation addendum at NO EXTRA CHARGE. Total compensation for this service is $1200.00 and you will receive over 25 years of real estate experience on your side!
*Seller must be available via email for e-signatures, which is used for all notices, counter offers, etc. **Offer review/assistance is offered during business hours of Mon-Fri, excluding all weekends and holidays. Seller authorizes Broker to insert into the MLS listing instructions to the agents that will state “Offers are reviewed within ONE BUSINESS day of receipt".
-$300 due upon listing the property and $900 due at close of escrow.The $300 is non-refundable, regardless if the property sells. If the sale fails to close, the remaining $900 is NOT due.
There are no standard compensation rates and compensation is fully negotiable and not set by law and offering compensation to a cooperating licensed broker representing the buyer (“Buyer Brokerage Firm”) (“Buyer Brokerage Compensation”) is not required.
- If Seller finds their own buyer that does not have a written services agreement with another brokerage, Seller may opt to have List4FlatFee.com, LLC act as a Limited Dual Agent in the transaction. That option is available for 1% of the sales price. Limited dual agency requires the consent of each principal in a written services agreement PRIOR to entering into a contract. Please refer to page four of the "Real Estate Brokerage in Washington" under Limited Dual Agent Duties: A limited dual agent may not advocate terms favorable to one principal to the detriment of the other principal. To find out more about the limited dual agency services, email stacie@list4flatfee.com or call 425-344-6779.
