Exactly's flat-fee pricing usually saves homeowners thousands of dollars
By Laura Briedis
When asked if we are currently in a buyer’s or seller’s market, local real estate agent Kevin Wasie answered, “We are in a healthy market.”
“The market is good right now, both for sellers and buyers,” says Kevin, who owns Exactly real estate company. “Nice houses that are in great condition and updated are still in demand and are still receiving multiple offers, especially those at the median price range and below. And houses that need some work are also selling but taking a little more time on the market.”
“Plus, mortgage rates are trending down, as in November rates were 7% for a 30-year mortgage and today they are hovering around 6%,” he adds, noting that lower rates attract more buyers.
What does all this mean? If you are thinking about selling, now is a good time to put your home on the market.
“You can still get top dollar for your home this year,” Kevin says. “Prices you can garner for your home are still higher than they have ever been, and with our company’s flat-rate fee, the money you profit is even higher.”
Exactly handles everything for homeowners from pricing analysis to marketing of the home to negotiating the final deal for a $4,800 package fee, instead of a percentage of the sale. “Our flat-fee pricing usually saves homeowners thousands of dollars,” Kevin says.
“Our fees are transparent, so the homeowner knows exactly what is due to us,” says Kevin, who has an economics degree from John Carroll University. “And if the buyer has a real estate agent, then there could be other fees you negotiate with that agent.”
The home-selling process is simple. An Exactly real estate agent meets with the homeowner to discuss goals, provide an in-depth comparative market analysis, do a walk-though to make sure everything is ready in the home, create a marketing plan and list the home.
Once a buyer submits an offer on a property, the sellers instantly receive a text message and an email alert with access to a proprietary Exactly offer portal. Sellers instantly see an offer summary detailing their net return, offer dates, etc.
“The seller will know down to the penny how much money they will get from a prospective offer, thus helping with our negotiation strategy,” Kevin says.
A pillar of the company, Exactly’s flat-rate fee has remained the same price since the company was founded in 2018.
“I had my aha moment after selling a million-dollar home and realized after getting my paycheck that it didn’t seem fair for a homeowner of a million-dollar listing to pay so much more commission than someone selling a $200,000 home, when the work the real estate agent does is the same,” Kevin says. “With flat-rate fees, I was able to innovate a way to be more fair, honest and transparent.”
