We know in down real estate markets how difficult it is for agents to profit if they rely solely on conventional sales. In a buyer's market you won't get paid if the home doesn't sell or if the listing expires and the seller lists with another Realtor. Also, in a buyer's market, sellers tend to put more pressure on you to sell their home, which can push you to be more open-minded to new ideas and to pursue other alternatives for your sellers. We understand you really do want to sell your customers' homes, to help both your sellers and your own business. That's where we come in. We teach Realtors about the alternatives we offer and how we can help you help your sellers while financially compensating you. We help you convert difficult sales into Lease Options to broaden the pool of buyers. We will pay you 25% of the finder's fee from the option consideration money once we have been paid. We are the only full service company in Western North Carolina that specializes in Lease Options/Rent to Own.  This is our area of expertise. Our services go beyond just handling the legal contracts, we oversee the entire process from start to finish.  From extensive tenant/buyer pre-screening, to marketing and advertising, to handling repairs and collecting monthly payments. We do all that is required to ensure that the process is successful. Here's another example of how we help you: prospective buyers who are not pre-approved leave your office without hope. This may be true for some types of buyers, but for many, you can still make a profit by turning them into a buyer with some creative ideas - like Lease Option/Rent to Own.

We understand real estate agent's biggest concern with doing a Lease Option/Rent to Own transaction is how you get paid.  With a Lease Option sale, you will receive 25% the finder's fee from the option consideration money once we have been paid, plus your buyer - who didn't think they'd be able to get a home now - can get a home right away.  And your seller will be able to move on with their lives knowing that we are paying for all costs of their home until our tenant/buyer closes on the home with a mortgage of their own. We strongly believe in creating win-win-win solutions for everyone!

How We Assist Your Sellers

We understand you have a relationship with your sellers that is very unique. Sellers tell you almost everything about their personal lives. You therefore know who is motivated and why.

Do you know of any sellers who are frustrated because their house is sitting unsold? Perhaps they have had to move out to live with family or they are paying two mortgages. They are tired of maintaining their empty house. They don't want to lower the price any more than they already have. If they are not upside down, then we CAN help them put together a transaction. 

How We Assist Your Buyers

You have prospective buyers who are coming in or calling your office, but once they are told to get "pre-approved", you don't hear back from them. Why? They go away feeling hopeless thinking they can't buy a home. This may be true for some types of buyers, but for many,  you can still make a profit by turning them into a buyer with some creative ideas - like Lease Option/Rent to Own. 

What we are looking for in our buyers are good people, but something happened to them financially and they need some time to rebuild their credit. They have  lost their job, had medical problems with no medical insurance, gone through a divorce, etc. Dot No Send Them Away! We can help them and you still get paid.
