"NEW Home Buyer Equity Rebate Program"

It follows you where ever you Lease

and continues to increase!

 

Every wonder about the small print behind some of the locator claims concerning "Equity Programs?" Just who is out there to provide Home Buyer Services to you when you're ready to buy? How much experience do they have as a Buyers Agent? Where does the actual "Equity" come from? And what about the outlandish claims by some locators who claim they can combine their so called equity program with the equity program from the Apartment you lease from? Have you checked out their claims?

 

Equity Rebate Programs are essentially a Rebate of Commission paid to a Realtor at the time of sale and is based upon the traditional 3% marketing commission paid to the Real Estate Agent. To offset or reduce some of the commission loss experienced by the designated Real Estate agent some EQUITY programs RESTRICT you to a SPECIFIC Mortgage Company that will charge you HIGHER RATES and FEES and if you don't use the designated Mortgage Company you loose all your so called "equity benefits!" To us this is a BAD DEAL.

 

You'll be happy to know that unlike apartment "Equity Programs" that takes years to accumulate meaningful cash benefits, and may restrict you to certain Builders and Mortgage companies that may not be to your best interest, Apartments2go's Home Buyer Equity Rebate Program pays you a 2% New Home Buyer Cash Equity Rebate in as little as 6 month and 2% for those who use our Locator Service to find a Short Term Lease while building a New Home.

Even better still, with Apartmetns2go you can earn all the way to an unheard of  2.5% of Your New Home's Sales Price when you lease an Apartment a SECOND TIME using our Locator Service. Apartments2go solves the headache of having to stay with "1" apartment for a long time just to obtain LESS home buyer equity benefits! Our Home Buyer Equity Rebate Program allows you the FREEDOM to move a 2nd time to suit your individual lifestyle needs while INCREASING your FUTURE NEW HOME EQUITY REBATE from us!

Collin County is one of the most intensive New Home Market in the U.S.A. The DFW Metroplex as a whole has an incredible home building industry. Many times buying a New Home is to your advantage over a pre-owned home because of Builder Discounts and Closing Cost Incentives they pay. Competition also helps to keep prices lower. With Apartments2go you can make your best NEW HOME DEAL (Read our New Home Buyer Tips) and then get up to 2.5% of your New Home's sales price at closing! It's hard not to like a program that gives you a lump sum check for up to $5500 Dollars on a $200,000 home!

PROGRAM RULES AND GUIDELINES

  1. Under our 2%+ New Home Equity Rebate Program ARG LP provides FULL REPRESENTATION, but LIMITED SERVICES. Limited Services means the Buyer does all the traditional footwork themselves and contacts us for guidance, advice and then gets us involved when it is time to negotiate with the Home Builders for the homes you have selected.  Our limited services include phone, email and online New Home Builder Websites and MLS where you can search for your New Home. DFW New Home Rebate or McKinney Home Rebate provides you with 4 different search tools for you to research and find a NEW area home. It is through your use of this online Referral technology that we are able to provide you with such an incredible Buyer Rebate. If you would rather have an agent personally assist you through your search and negotiations a New Home Rebate of 1.5% will apply and a 1% Rebate for existing homes.

  16. PAYMENT The funds due to the home buyer under this program represent a "Rebate of Commission" and come from the Agent's commission at closing.

RESTRICTIONS AND LIMITATIONS

A very limited number of new home builders may not agree with this program. This is the reason why our Buyer Representation Agreement is a non- binding, non- exclusive agency relationship when you deal with Askins Realty Group unlike many of my competitors who want to bind you under specific performance agreements. If you decide not to use the program you are free to obtain the services of other Real Estate Professionals.

Brokerage fees are negotiable and are not fixed or controlled.

In many transactions, including most residential sales, a seller will deliver a Seller's Disclosure Notice to a buyer on or before the effective date of a contract to purchase the property The notice provides important information about the seller's knowledge of the property condition.

Buyers are advised to obtain a policy of title insurance or have an abstract of title reviewed by an attorney of buyer's choice before purchasing a property.

Texas law requires all real estate licensees to give the following information about brokerage services to prospective buyers, tenants, sellers and landlords.

Before working with a real estate broker, you should know that the duties of a broker depend on whom the broker represents. If you are a prospective seller or landlord (owner) or a prospective buyer or tenant (buyer), you should know that the broker who lists the property for sale or lease is the owner's agent. A broker who acts as a subagent represents the owner in cooperation with the listing broker. A broker who acts as a buyer's agent represents the buyer. A broker may act as an intermediary between the parties if the parties consent in writing. A broker can assist you in locating a property, preparing a contract or lease, or obtaining financing without representing you. A broker is obligated by law to treat you honestly.

IF THE BROKER REPRESENTS THE OWNER:
The broker becomes the owner's agent by entering into an agreement with the owner, usually through a written listing agreement or by agreeing to act as a subagent by accepting an offer of subagency from the listing broker. A subagent may work in a different real estate office. A listing broker or subagent can assist the buyer but does not represent the buyer and must place the interests of the owner first. The buyer should not tell the owner's agent anything the buyer would not want the owner to know because an owner's agent must disclose to the owner any material information known to the agent.

IF THE BROKER REPRESENTS THE BUYER:
The broker becomes the buyer's agent by entering into an agreement to represent the buyer, usually through a written buyer representation agreement A buyer's agent can assist the owner but does not represent the owner and must place the interests of the buyer first. The owner should not tell a buyer's agent anything the owner would not want the buyer, to know because a buyer's agent must disclose to the buyer any material information known to the agent.

IF THE BROKER ACTS AS AN INTERMEDIARY:
A broker may act as an intermediary between the parties if the broker complies with The Texas Real Estate License Act. The broker must obtain the written consent of each party to the transaction to act as an intermediary. The written consent must state who will pay the broker and, in conspicuous bold or underlined print, set forth the broker's obligations as an intermediary. The broker is required to treat each party honestly and fairly and to comply with The Texas Real Estate License Act. A broker who acts as an intermediary in a transaction:
(1) shall treat all parties honestly;
(2) may not disclose that the owner will accept a price less than the asking price unless authorized in writing to do so by the owner;
(3) may not disclose that the buyer will pay a price greater than the price submitted in a written offer unless authorized in writing to do so by the buyer; and
(4) may not disclose any confidential information or any information that a party specifically instructs the broker in writing not to disclose unless authorized in writing to disclose the information or required to do so by The Texas Real Estate License Act or a court order or if the information materially relates to the condition of the property.

With the parties' consent, a broker acting as an intermediary between the parties may appoint a person who is licensed under The Texas Real Estate License Act and associated with the broker to communicate with and carry out instructions of one party and another person who is licensed under that Act and associated with the broker to communicate with and carry out instructions of the other party.

If you choose to have a broker represent you, you should enter into a written agreement with the broker that clearly establishes the broker's obligations and your obligations. The agreement should state how and by whom the broker will be paid. You have the right to choose the type of representation, if any, you wish to receive. Your payment of a fee to a broker does not necessarily establish that the broker represents you. If you have any questions regarding the duties and responsibilities of the broker, you should resolve those questions before proceeding.
