Estate agents. You can’t live with them, you can’t live with them. The first sign of these nasty purulent sores appeared round about 1894. With their jangling keys, nasty suits, revolting beards, moustaches and tinted spectacles, estate agents roam the land causing perturbation and despair. If you try and kill them, you’re put in prison: if you try and talk to them, you vomit. There’s only one thing worse than an estate agent but at least that can be safely lanced, drained and surgically dressed. Estate agents. Love them or loathe them, you’d be mad not to loathe them.

Thinking of an Agent?

What should you know about real estate agents? Is there anything worth knowing about them? What does a real estate do anyway? And what makes one better than another? Is there a litmus test for finding a good agent?

The ibr Policy

IBR made its mark in the world of REALTORS® by always offering a fee plan that saves everyone money. This is the 2%•4%•5% plan:

  • 5% if any other licensed agent finds the buyer
  • 4% if the listing agent finds the buyer
  • 2% if you the seller finds the buyer

There's more!

  1. We pay 3% to any other MLS agent who brings the buyer.
  2. Our listing contracts can be canceled by you, the seller.
  3. Targeted Advertising: Multiple Listing Service, internet sites, picture magazines, newspapers, signs, flyers, postcards, ... the same or more than the competition.

Some agents are asked, “Why do you charge so much?”
The standard response is; “Because I’m worth it, and I give better service.”
Don’t you Believe it!

Agents from Independent Brokers Realty are asked: “Why do you charge so little?”
The standard response is; “You, the customer, are worth it.”
You Can Believe That one!

Competition is a GOOD THING!
