Flat Fee Listing Offers EQUITY PROTECTION For Atlanta Homeowners

In response to the changing Atlanta real estate market, DRA Homes has adopted a new approach to selling homes.


Our Atlanta Flat Fee Listing Service allows clients to SAVE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS in Real Estate Commissions.

The DRA Homes FLAT FEE LISTING is an EQUITY PROTECTION mechanism for Metro Atlanta Homeowners.

The DRA Homes FLAT FEE LISTING arrangement sets a small fee up-front as a one-time charge for marketing your home. This gives you the flexibility to choose a commission for the cooperating selling broker that is comfortable for you, whether you choose 2% or 5%, the choice is yours.

This allows you to position the selling commission at a higher than average rate to ATTRACT MORE BUYERS' AGENTS to your home.

At closing a fee of .0012 of the sales price is paid to the FMLS service. THAT'S IT! On a $200,000 sale, the fee is only $240.00.

Unlike programs offered by other brokerages and For Sale By Owner companies, the DRA Homes FLAT FEE LISTING SERVICE is NOT A FOR SALE BY OWNER PROGRAM!

DRA Homes FLAT FEE LISTING SERVICE has NO HIDDEN CHARGES FOR "ADD-ON" SERVICES!

Our package includes:
SUPRA LOCKBOX
Professional Signage
Photography
Virtual Tours
Open Houses
Flyer Box
Color Flyers
In-Home Information Books

Attention Real Estate Consumers In Atlanta

Welcome to the real estate market. We are happy that you are considering buying, selling or leasing and as industry professionals, we want to help you.

Realtors, real estate agents and brokers work under “agency” relationship agreements with clients and customers. The shorthand explanation is that the agency agreement binds the real estate professional and the client/customer together in a mutually beneficial relationship.



You, as the client/customer, HIRE the real estate professional to work on your behalf. They are expected to locate properties that meet your criteria, arrange showings, gather pertinent information about the property, assist you in determining fair market value, help you to craft a legal, beneficial contract with the other party, assist you in the negotiations, ensure that inspections, financing, & closing take place according to the schedule outlined in the contract, and a myriad of other details that I will not take the time to itemize.

You as the client/customer, agree to allow the real estate professional to seek compensation in exchange for performing their services.

Once you engage the services of a real estate professional to assist you, there are a few things that you should know about what happens when you go outside of the agency agreement and speak directly to other agents on your own behalf:



1. you often reveal too much information about yourself and your financial standing to the agent who is representing the other party.
2. you compromise your negotiating position by revealing too much information
3. you jeopardize your real estate agent’s ability to adequately represent you in the transaction
4. you have engaged the services and the time of another agent who will likely not be compensated for assisting you
5. you have put at risk the compensation of the real estate professional that you engaged through an agency agreement

Most listing agents in Metro Atlanta do not offer compensation to co-operating agents who do not handle the transaction from start to finish. If I have a rental listing and the co-oping agent does not attend all showings, walk through, signing of the lease and delivery of the funds, I will not pay a co-op fee to that agent. The same can be said of for sale listings, my standard disclaimer is that if I show another agent’s client my listing, I will pay a drastically reduced commission to the co-oping agent.

As a real estate professional, I expect my clients to remain loyal and in compliance with our agency agreement. I respect the agreements that exist between other agents and their clients/customers. I always ask whether you are currently working with another agent, and if you are, I respectfully request that you contact your agent directly so that they may gather information on your behalf.

When you enter into an agency agreement with a real estate professional, please respect the time, effort, resources and expense that the agent has put to use on your behalf.

Real estate is our chosen profession and we love what we do, but the fact remains that this is our job and we expect and deserve to compensated for what we do.

Is It The Market, Or Is It Me?

As I have gotten older and grown more into myself, I have had to accept that my personality is not warm & fuzzy. I just don't have it. And I can't fake it. I do not fit into the social norm when it comes to this.



My husband, my children, my parents, a few friends and more than a few clients have adapted. And to a man, they will tell you that it was worth it.

It is not that I am not sympathetic, not empathetic, or uncaring...I wear my heart on my sleeve. I am a problem-solver. I am logical. I believe in action. I believe in facts. I am fiercely loyal. I have an unwavering commitment to truth, integrity and ethics. I will cry with you, hold your hand, and give you the advice and direction that you need. I will not tell you what you want to hear, just to make you feel better.

The problem is that in residential real estate, that does not always go over very well. Hell, sometimes in life that doesn't go over very well.

Especially in the reality of the real estate market today, my personality stings. Or stinks, depending on who you ask! But believe me when I tell you, once I am on your side, I will "go to the mattresses for you!" You cannot have a better ally.

If what you are looking for is warm & fuzzy, maybe I am not what you need.



If you are looking for a fierce ally, who always
and only has your very best interests at heart, PICK ME!

Atlanta Flat Fee Listing Service

In response to the changing real estate market, Dixon Realty Advisors has adopted an Atlanta Flat Fee Listing Service for homeowners that allows our clients to Save Thousands (or tens of thousands) of Dollars in Real Estate Commissions.

We think of the program as an EQUITY PROTECTION mechanism for Metro Atlanta homeowners.

In our Atlanta Flat Fee Listing Service arrangement, our fee is set up-front as a one-time charge for marketing your home.

This gives you the flexibility to choose a commission for the cooperating buyers' agent that is comfortable for you, the choice is yours. This flexability allows you to position the selling commission at a higher rate as an incentive, attracting more agents to your home or to offer to pay for closing costs, repairs or other buyer incentives.

The only other fee is paid to the MLS service at closing at a rate of .0012 of the sales price. THAT'S IT!

Unlike most Atlanta Flat Fee Listing Service programs offered by other brokerages, Our Atlanta Flat Fee Listing Service Program DOES NOT Mirror a For Sale By Owner with MLS benefits.

You do not make your own fliers, you do not take your own pictures, you do not advertise the property yourself & YOU DO HAVE A PROFESSIONAL REAL ESTATE AGENT REPRESENTING YOUR INTERESTS!

There are No Hidden Charges For "Add-On" Services such as virtual tours, lockbox rentals, signage, additional photos, or hosting open houses.

We provide every listing with a Full-Time PROFESSIONAL to service and market your home at a drastically reduced cost.

Call us today to get started!
