Promotions

If you are looking to maximize your position in a real estate transaction, the promotions on this page may be of great value to you. Currently there are 5 active rebate offers, 1 COVID-19 listing promotion and the access to a property valuation software tool for free!

Multiple Transaction Rebate:

Enjoy a spectacular rebate check usually totaling in the thousands of dollars with the multiple transaction rebate. The program is straightforward and easy to calculate. When you list and sell 1 property and contract with any form of buyer's agency to purchase your next property, the foundation for the rebate is set.

Both transactions must close within a certain period of time. To receive the maximum rebate the 2nd (purchase) transaction must close within 90 days of the 1st (sale) transaction. A lesser rebate is still available if the 2nd (purchase) transaction closes within 180 days.

The rebate schedule is based on the 1st closed transaction sold price. A 1% rebate check is issued when the 2nd purchase transaction closes within 90 days of 1st. A .5% rebate check is issued when the 2nd purchase transaction closes within 180 days of 1st.

An example of the program might look like this: You sell your house for $500,000.00 and close your new home purchase within 90 days. You receive a rebate check for $5,000.00. If your new purchase did not close within 90 days, but does close within 180 days, the rebate check would be $2,500.00.

If a purchase transaction can not be completed within the time periods allotted the rebate expires.

At your request clear references are made part of any listing or buyer's contract for this or program.

For Sale By Owner Rebate:

A $225.00 rebate is currently available to all For Sale By Owner conversion customers. The foundation for this rebate is referenced in all of the automated online "Do It Yourself" listing contracts and should the customer change or 'convert' a FSBO / DYI listing into a traditional service listing the potential rebate will be carried forward to that new contract.

If the property is sold while the listing is being traditionaly serviced the seller will receive a $225.00 rebate as credit against any seller commission liability due at closing understanding that statistically the majority of FSBO listings will convert to traditional listings overtime.

If realized, this rebate effectively makes a trial run at selling your own property a 'free' experience.

1ST Time Homebuyer Rebate:

This 1st time homebuyer rebate follows similar rules as most contemporary 1st time homebuyer programs in the lending market place. The singular rule to qualify for this rebate is; you must not have owned any real estate for 3 years prior to the purchase.

There are no purchase price caps, minimum participation levels or income means testing. A rebate check will issue to the buyer post closing based on 5% of the commission fees received for the transaction.

Simple and effective!

Corporate Rebate:

In a colabrative effort to support those connected to local corporations, companies and associations with large numbers of employees at the center of my service area, the Corporate Rebate Plan is designed for a maximum benefit to the consumer by allowing clients to take this specific rebate 'stand-alone' or 'assembled' with other rebates currently posted.

The stand-alone value of the rebate is calculated based on 5% of the commissions received for the transaction. A few examples could look like this:

  1. A $400,000.00 purchase based on a 2.5% commission buyer's contract results in a rebate check of $500.00.
  2. A $400,000.00 sale based on a 5% commission listing contract results in a rebate check of $1,000.00.
Building on the examples above a few more scenarios might look like this:
  1. Above, plus a 1st Time Home Buyer Rebate would result in 2 checks totaling $1000.00.
  2. Above, plus a Multiple Transaction Rebate would result in 2 checks totaling as much as $5,000.00.

This promotional plan is unilateral in nature and requires no special contract or agreement from your company/employer/group other than you providing some simple information about your HR Department with the form below. If you think your organization would be interested having this company as a preferred benefit provider, please ask to have your Human Resources Department make contact for further discussion.

        


Veteran Rebate:

Veterans and military families can now take advantage of an additional rebate that may be used with other offers or stand-alone. With appropriate credentials, any active duty, reservist, veteran or their spouse may use this rebate.

The rebate is calculated on 5% of the commission received be New England Contract Realty for a single transaction side (purchase or sale, by client choice). Due to the extraordinary value of this program, this rebate is limited to being used once in a 12-month period. The Veterans Administration may regulate how the rebate reported, processed and paid if a VA loan is used in the transaction.

"Thank you for your service!"

COVID-19 Virtual Tour:

This virus has caused havoc in market place. Showing appointments and other visits to properties for sale were almost at a stand still for a period of time. Worry remains in this area as some are just too nervous to engage a showing and others don't want a high traffic count entering the space where they currently live.

The solution for many has been the Virtual Tour. Until the conditions in the field change, any seller can now have this service included in their listing contract for free. You can now list with confidence knowing that the potential buyers of you property have 'seen' once and would like to set up a meaningful 'second showing'.

Typically this service has been part of the premium listing package; now available to all whom request it!

Property Valuation:

Free mapping software tools are not replacements for more potent methods of looking at the market place, but can be generally helpful in forming ideas about an individual property or location. If you are interested in an opinion of value, you can request a Realtors Property Resource report for your house or condominium. CMAs (Comparative Market Analysis) or paid BPOs (Broker's Price Opinion) can dig deeper in to property specifics as well as the local and regional forces which are driving the trends, days on market and price points.

To start your valuation request use this form and instruction as follows:

  • Fill in your current name and address
  • Enter your email and telephone number
  • Supply any additional information
  • Submit request

Typicaly it takes a few days to complete the work and once you have received your opinion, I trust that you will elect to contact me to explore the idea of professional representation for your future transaction.
