FALLS CHURCH, Va., Aug. 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — The way consumers choose their next real estate broker might have more in common with Netflix than the traditional broker-centric business practices that have defined the real estate industry for more than a century and that add undue costs, barriers, and inefficiencies.
In an age of unbounded consumer choice and technology-led innovations, brokers are still stuck in the 20th century, charging homeowners a 6% commission to sell their home – 3% goes to the listing agent and 3% goes to the buyer’s agent. For a $500,000home, that’s $30,000! We can all agree that it doesn’t cost 6% to sell your home. No wonder that 70% of consumers distrust real estate agents.
According to NAR, 48% of all real estate firms cited keeping up with technology as one of the biggest challenges facing their firm in the next two years. This is an appalling and unacceptable state for a $70 billion industry in the United States.
There is revolutionary new real estate brokerage model out there being introduced by Smart Start Real Estate Group, a start-up, that launches U.S First subscription-based real estate services which offer investors a subscription-like plan to purchase or sell as many properties as they like regardless of the sale price or square footage for a fixed fee. Giving the real estate investor ability to flip properties with more control over their bottom line.
Smart Start Real Estate Group is rebuilding the real estate brokerage model around the customer with technology and a team of full service, salaried team members and licensed agents.
