Can’t Afford Home Closing Costs? Atlanta REALTOR? Sweetens the Pot with Cash Home Buyer Rebate


Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) July 8, 2009

There’s no question the current U.S. economy is challenging, and despite low real estate prices, prospective home buyers are feeling the pinch on closing costs. Atlanta real estate agent Dennis Berdis of Chapman Hall REALTORS? is sweetening an already favorable buyer’s market with a 1.5 percent cash home buyer rebate on purchases.

Buyers can receive their rebate either in cash or certified check rebate in an amount equal to 1.5 percent of the home price. Contrary to what many REALTORS? tell customers, there’s no prohibition on receiving a home rebate via certified check, Berdis said.

Individuals who purchase, for example, a $ 200,000 home through Berdis would receive a $ 3,000 rebate, which can be used at the buyer’s discretion.

“This rebate is paid out of the commission that I receive for representing the buyer in the home buying transaction,” Berdis said. “I pay a guaranteed rebate of 1.5 percent of the home purchase price to the home buyer. That is 50 percent of my commission being paid in cash to the buyer.”

Berdis, who can be found at AtlantaHomeSell.com, does not limit his customers on the number of homes they can see, and does not reduce the amount of the rebate for additional showings.

“We give the home rebate on any homes listed for sale with any and all other REALTOR? firms, real estate companies, brokers and their REALTORS? or agents. The home rebate also applies to homes that are ‘For Sale by Owner.’”

The rebate is typically used by buyers to cover house-related expenses, but how the rebate is spent is not regulated.

“Your home rebate could help you pay for home buying expenses. Use it however you wish,” Berdis said. “Some of our buyers have used the home rebate we gave them to pay for moving expenses, home upgrades, new furniture, new appliances or closing costs.”

In addition to the 1.5 percent rebate, Berdis assists his real estate clients with discount listing services, and said customers appreciate his willingness to be flexible in order to meet their needs.

Home Buyer Tax Credit Extended & Expanded; We Give you Cash Too

Article by Shawn Shayestehfar

The popular first time home buyer tax credit is extended and to sweeten the deal, Congress expanded the tax credit to many people who already own homes. As many of you know, as part economic stimulus package, most first time home buyers are eligible to receive tax credit up to 00 which was scheduled to expire by end of November. Now, move up home buyers who have owned and lived in their current homes for at least 5 years are eligible to get up to 00 tax credit by purchasing a new owner occupied home. The new deadline is May 1st which means that you must sign the purchase contract by May 1st and close escrow by June 30th of 2010.Again, to take advantage of this tax credit you must live and use the home you are purchasing as your primary residence. Investors are not eligible for this credit. The income cap is also higher now. The income cap for single filer is now at 5K and joint filers at 5K and the maximum purchase price is 0K. The purchase limit is pointless for most home buyers in United States but most people that are looking to buy a single family home in West LA, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica and other part of California won’t be eligible for the tax credit because these homes are usually over 0K. Here is what we can do for everyone; even the investors.What we can do for you:Our firm, Platinum Capital Realty, offers our buyers cash rebate up to 50% of our commission for representing them. It’s very easy to get our buyer cash rebate. All you need to do is, find the properties yourself by searching through internet, see it yourself or go to open houses.

We even call the listing agents to schedule showings for you and help you with loan approval. You can also search for all types of available homes, condominiums and apartment buildings including foreclosed properties through our property search engine. All of these services are at no cost to you and on top of that we give you up to 50% of our commission to you. You can apply that towards your closing costs or get a check few days after close of escrow. So buyers that are eligible to get the tax credit can also get extra cash by working with us.Everyone is welcome to take advantage of this buyer cash rebate. Investors looking for shopping centers, apartment buildings, industrial buildings are all eligible to receive our buyer cash rebate.Here are few examples of rebates we have given to our buyers.

Best Tips on How to Find A Buyer Fast

Do you need a buyer for your home quickly? Well, here is the solution for you. In order to sell your home fast, you are required to follow certain important things. Trust me, you are going to get a quicker result. I followed these measures while I sold my home a few months back and got the best price for it. The most important thing that is to be essentially followed is using some marketing strategies that sell your home faster in this hot real estate scenario.

Here follows 4 best ways on how to find a buyer fast:

  • List your property on the flat fee MLS listing. It provides a wide exposure to your home as a large number of real estate people can see them live.
  • You can also appoint a good sales agent who is aware of your neighborhood.
  • You must price your home properly. Over-pricing your home will not sell it. For a quicker result, you need to put a price that your home is worth of, keeping the market value in mind.
  • You must decorate your home properly before a buyer comes to see it. A proper presentation will get you a buyer faster.
