Auto Lead Forwarding System learn more
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 and the Chicago Tribune. 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 prospect 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.
Money Back Guarantee learn more
If you have trouble selling your home and decide to hire a traditional real estate agent, we help you get your money back. We have agreements with many of the top agents in the area. Interview with our partners and if you decide to use one of them then we will refund your $299 back when your home closes.

Optional
Virtual Tour - Includes 5 virtual tours and six still photographs by a professional photographer. $150

Thanks so much!

I was nervous at first but it was so easy and I saved tons! I'm going to recommend you to my neighbor. They're selling next month.

Thanks Again,

Thanks for assisting us...

The money we saved by not paying a listing broker allowed us to further mark down the price of the property and ultimately market it at the most competitive price.

Please keep up the good work!

Hi Scott,

I would like to thank you for the type and quality of service you have provided us with. Any time we had questions you were always very prompt in getting back to us.

From our experience with Berg Properties I know that we will never use the services of a traditional listing agent.

Thanks again,
Michael and Ann Drazenovi

Hello Berg and Company,

What a valuable service you provide! I am very impressed with the level of support I needed during the marketing and selling of my property.

I know that I would not have seen the traffic I did without it being listed on the MLS through your company.

Thank you so much!

With much appreciation,
Michele Brady
