On
the MLS under showing
instructions, REALTORS
are directed to call
you at your phone number
to set up a showing.
That being said, showing
instructions are not
pulled by other major
web sites like Realtor.com.
In fact, whatever broker
you list with will have
their name and phone
number prominently displayed
on these sites.
This raises some important
questions: How do these
leads get to me? What
if a buyer calls me
on a Saturday night
for a Sunday showing
or any day after business
hours?
We have a great solution
that helps to ensure
that you will not miss
a call. On Realtor.com
and other web sites
it will list our 800#
to get more information
on a property. When
a prospect calls that
number they can dial
in your MLS# (which
is given on all these
sites) and be forwarded
directly to your phone
number. That way you
will not miss a potential
showing when a prospect
calls on Saturday night
for a Sunday showing.
These calls are auto
forwarded directly to
you. |

Disclosure - Savings were
calculated at a 2.5% commission
rate for a listing agent.
According to a DOJ report
average agent commission
rates stood at 5.2% in
2005. Listing agents typically
keep half that or 2.51%.
Many of our clients do
not sell. Our results
will below with that of
a full service agent for
several reasons. 1. Berg
Properties does not tell
our clients where to set
their price as a condition
to list their home. 2.
Many traditional real
estate agencies have set
durations in their listing
agreements - Berg Properties
does not.The clients of
Berg Properties can cancel
their contracts at any
time. 3. Some of our clients
do not need to sell or
are willing to wait and
therefore keep their homes
on the market for extraordinary
periods of time which
a typical traditional
broker would not tolerate.
4. Traditional agents
spend more time with their
clients, know their homes
and have better local
market knowledge. As a
whole they outperform
a company like ours. And
I would hope so based
on the fees they charge.
The video, audio and text
testimonials were all
clients of Berg Properties.
Some clients were compensated
for their time to give
a testimonial. |

We
had such a great experience
with Berg Properties...
Knowing we're probably
gonna lose money in
our sale, we are trying
to cut corners in every
way possible.
By using Berg Properties
for our flat fee listing
we saved $3,250 in real
estate commission fees.
Even though money was
our number reason for
using Berg, we also
found the staff to be
extremely helpful.
They answered questions
fast, provided all the
necessary documents
and made selling a home
easy.
We'll continue to recommend
Berg properties at anyone
we know that is planning
to sell.

Hi,
this is Katie Scullion,...
We use Berg Properties
to sell our home in
Wilmete. The cost savings
was stunning. It was
$34,000 in commission
cost.
I have come to believe
that the most critical
part of selling a home
is having it listed
in the MLS service.
I had 2 really good
offers. But real state
transactions can be
really tricky and Berg
Property was invaluable
in negotiation with
the different parties..

We
were so impressed with
Berg Properties!
Not only did we save
$23k in realtor fees,
but Scott gave us the
support we needed to
sell our condo in the
midst of a difficult
market in just 3 weeks
for 97% of our asking
price!
The signup was easy,
inexpensive, and our
listing was quickly
posted on several websites
including Realtor.com®
and the MLS.
