Go Guided: The Reverse Commission

Thursday, June 11th, 2009

Reverse Commission™

Conventional commissions reward agents for getting home buyer’s to pay the highest price for a home. By basing compensation on how much a buyer spends, all real estate agents are encouraged to drive prices up.

Since Territory is an unconventional brokerage (we are so proud!) and only represents buyers we felt it was only appropriate to design a system that rewards our Guides for driving prices down. Our revolutionary Reverse Commission™ is a bonus incentive that bases compensation on how much you save.

How does it work? It’s simple… The Reverse Commission™ is 1/3rd of the negotiated discount - the difference between the seller’s list price and your purchase price. When you close on a home the the Reverse Commission™ is removed from the cooperating commission and you keep the rest. You never pay out of pocket, we just put more money in it!

The Reverse Commission™ guarantees that your Territory Guide will do everything possible to get you the lowest price on any home, and if they aren’t successful they don’t get paid. It’s simple, it’s fair and it works.

Example:

If you purchased a home listed at $500,000 for $491,000, the Reverse Commission™ would be $3,000. You would get a rebate for $4,280 for a total savings of $13,280!

If you purchased the same home for $485,000, the Reverse Commission would be $5,000. You would get a rebate for $2,130 for a total savings of $17,130!

*Maximum charge is the cooperating compensation assigned to buyer agent via MLS.

Territory is proud to announce the launch of a second home-buying service. Don’t worry all you DIY’s, we have held on to the Do-It-Yourself option that many of you have come to know and love we are simply adding a second option for those of you who want the savings but need a little more Guidance.

No matter which one you choose you will still save thousands on your purchase:

1. Go Solo

Territory offers a unique Solo program for Do-It-Yourself home-buyers. Buyers are provided with unlimited access to every property on the market, they are encouraged to view listings at public open houses and to submit offers through the Territory website. We reward clients who do some of the legwork themselves by charging an industry low flat-fee and rebating the balance of our commission. Solo clients walk away with an average commission rebate of over $10,000.

What You Get

  • Unlimited open house tours + 5 tours accompanied by a Territory Guide.
  • Online tools to evaluate a property and draft your offer paperwork.
  • A Territory Guide to present your offer and to coordinate inspections and closings.
  • A refund for our entire commission minus a $4,995 low flat-fee.

2. Go Guided

For those of you that prefer a little extra help, Territory combines the savings of the Solo program with unlimited access to a Territory Guide. To guarantee your Guide is working to get you the lowest price we use a revolutionary Reverse Commission™ formula. If your Guide doesn’t have a measurable impact on your deal they don’t get paid. Guided clients walk away with average savings of over $25,000.
What You Get

  • Unlimited property tours accompanied by a Territory Guide.
  • A Territory Guide to evaluate a property and draft your offer paperwork.
