Seller Assist vs Agent Listing Comparison

Palm Springs Desert Area Homes, Condos & Real Estate

A Comparison of the Beacon "Seller Assist" Sale with the  Standard Agent Listing Process

The example below shows how the Seller Assist system can not only get you full value for your property, it also helps you avoid the substantial price erosion involved in the standard real estate agent listing process of selling real estate.

Here is a comparison of the standard agent listing process as against the Seller Assist Note Purchase system. Here the seller receives 126% of what he would have received selling the same property with the standard listing process. The seller only gives up 7% of the appraised value. This table shows what can happen.

		Listing Process	Seller Assist
True Value		150,000	150,000
Estimated Value	-10%	135,000	150,000
Listed Price		134,900	150,000
30 Day Price Drop	-5%	128,000	150,000
Negotiated Price	-5%	121,600	150,000
Post Inspection	-3%	118,000	150,000
Agent's Fee	-6%	110,900	150,000
Seller Assist Cost	-7%	NA	139,500
Net Sale Proceeds*		110,900	139,500
Seller Assist Advantage		100%	126%

* Net Sale Proceeds disregard other closing costs. Typically these are much higher in the standard listing process than with Seller Assist.

In the standard listing process, the listing agent performs a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA). A CMA is the agent's "guesstimate" of value and tends to be influenced (even if unconsciously) by the agent's desire to sell the home as quickly as possible. This is why the agent's estimated value is shown as 10% less than the true value. The True Value is that set buy a professional appraiser.

During the "standard" sale there are other downward pressures on the price. These include price reductions induced by the pressure of the passage of time. In this example we have used 5%. It could be more. Then there are the price reductions caused by the negotiating process, both initial bargaining and post inspection haggling.

All this price erosion is avoided by the "take it or leave it" attitude a seller can take with the sale of the property when using the "seller assist" program.
