Below are answers to the most "frequently asked questions" and explanations on how you can save a few thousand dollars on your next home purchase. If you have any questions about the program, please don't hesitate to call Anthony at 303-520-3179.

Is this a gimmick...or does this "Golden Ticket" have real value? Are sales commission discounts the same as cash? Why are you doing this? Can I use a "Golden Ticket" even if I'm not selling home? I received a "Golden Ticket", but I'm not looking to buy or sell my home at this time - can I pass it along to a friend or family member? If I give my ticket to someone and/or lose my original, can I request a replacement? Do the "Golden Tickets" have an expiration date? Are there any restrictions? If I refer someone to you, can I receive cash? How much can I actually save? How much will you charge to list my home for sale?

 

Is this a gimmick...or does this "Golden Ticket" have real value?
NO... & YES.
Referrals are the lifeblood of any Realtor's business and I can personally assure you this is not a gimmick - it's just creative marketing. The bearer of the original ticket can redeem it to reduce my sales commission and/or receive cash at closing on the sale or purchase of their next home.

Are sales commission discounts the same as cash?
EXCELLENT QUESTION - YES.
It's the legal way for me to reimburse you for referring business to me. In lieu of paying a seller after the transaction closes, I will discount my sales % commission up front on the listing sales contract - which clearly and legally documents my promise to you. For sellers, a commission discount has the exact same value as cash at closing.

Why are you doing this?
MARKETING.
Simply put, marketing is very expensive & time-consuming!  By offering real cash incentives to people like you to help generate future business for me, we all win. Sellers can use the savings to reduce my listing sales commission and buyers can use the cash to help pay for closing costs or something fun like a much-needed vacation, new appliances, new furniture, air conditioning, playground sets or anything else you want!  I understand that every home buyer and seller can use the savings - so I chose to focus my marketing efforts on something fun and valuable.

Can I use my "Golden Ticket" even if I don't have a home to sell?
ABSOLUTELY!
Hire me as your "buyers agent" and receive your cash at closing to use towards anything you want.  This cash reward is my way of saying "thanks for allowing me to serve you".

I received a "Golden Ticket", but I'm not looking to buy or sell my home at this time.  Can I pass it along to a friend or family member?
ABSOLUTELY!
The sweet savings are transferable to anyone who you feel can benefit from the savings.

If I give my "Golden Ticket" to a friend, co-worker or family member, can I request a replacement for myself later?
ABSOLUTELY!
They are transferable to anyone who you feel can benefit from the savings. Additionally, if your original ticket becomes lost or stolen, request a replacement by calling 303-520-3179.  We will verify your name in our database of specially targeted recipients of this offer first.

How much can I actually save?
THERE'S NO LIMIT!
For every buyer or seller you refer that results in a successful transaction, I will reduce my sales commission to you by an additional $500 on the sale or purchase of your next home. Furthermore, there is no limit on the number of "Golden Tickets" you can earn - so the potential cost savings to you are unlimited!

Do the "Golden Tickets" have an expiration date?
NO!
My exclusive "Golden Ticket" savings program officially launched on February 3, 2006. And in addition the comment above, the savings I am offering are good for life or at least until I retire.

Are there any restrictions?
YES.
"Golden Tickets" are part of a very specific & targeted ad campaign.  You must have received one of these as part of the ad campaign or from someone who did.  All tickets will be verified for authenticity.  This exclusive offer can not be combined with any other promotional offers or listing/sales commission reductions. In other words, no double-dipping.  You choose the promotional offer that financially benefits you the most and I will honor it.  Certificate savings are not retroactive.  And finally, all requests for discounts/savings must be requested and put in writing prior to entering into a buyer/seller agency contract.

If I refer someone to you, can I receive cash instead?
NO - Unless your a client of mine.
State & Federal laws are very strict when it comes to referrals, payouts and kickbacks.  Specifically relating to payment for referrals, real estate agents are not allowed to give anything of value to non-licensed real estate agents and/or others who are not "party to the transaction" in exchange for a referral. In a nutshell, I can do anything for my buyers and sellers, but if you're not involved in the transaction, it is against the law for me to pay you a referral fee (I could lose my license). I can however, offer to give you a commission discount or cash credits for your future business (hence the "golden tickets" savings certificates).

How much can I actually save?
A LOT!
Sales commission discounts and cash savings are based on the type and amount of the closed transaction. A few samples might look like this:

BUYING A:
1. $250k home, buyer receives $250 cash at closing
2. $500k home, buyer receives $500 cash at closing
3. $750k home, buyer receives $1500 cash at closing
4. $1m+ home, buyer receives $3000 cash at closing
(savings can not be combined with any other promotions or commission discounts)

SELLING A:
1. $250k home, seller receives a $250 discount
2. $500k home, seller receives a $500 discount
3. $750k home, seller receives a $1000 discount
4. $1m+ home, seller receives a $2000 discount
(savings can not be combined with any other promotions or commission discounts)

SELLERS WHO HIRE ME AS THEIR BUYER AGENT:
1. to buy a $250k home, receive an additional $250 cash
2. to buy a $500k home, receive an additional $500 cash
3. to buy a $750k home, receive an additional $1500 cash
4. to buy a $1m+ home, receive an additional $2500 cash
(savings can not be combined with any other promotions or commission discounts)

To calculate your exact savings, call Anthony @ 303-520-3179.

How much will you charge to list my home for sale?
IT'S NEGOTIABLE.
Every seller has different goals and objectives. Some need to sell and move out of state, some need to sell and downsize and the majority needs to sell and buy upsize to a newer home. As a full-service broker, I will exceed your expectations, deliver exceptional value and make sure you get top market value for your home. Let's sit down and evaluate your specific financial objectives and I think you will be surprised by what I have to offer - call Anthony @ 303-520-3179.
