Jayne Hanlon Realty offers a choice of two buyer programs to represent and
assist buyers in the search, evaluation, and purchase of non-commercial use
(e.g. residential use) properties. Such properties may include resale homes, new
or under construction homes (including new subdivision homes), developed lots,
acreage, and "For Sale by Owner" (FSBO) properties.
The Full Service
Program provides a high level of broker contribution and is well suited for a
buyer who lives out of area or for whom time for real estate search and
involvement is limited. An Exclusive Buyer Agent will
leverage their knowledge and expertise to locate and qualify the
properties that best fit your requirements. This will streamline your
search process and shorten the overall purchase process. No buyer incentive is provided
with this program. The counties included in this
program are Lumpkin, Dawson, Hall, and Forsyth.
For
buyers who wish to conduct their own on-line research and do "drive-bys"
to eliminate properties, our
new Buyer's Choice Program provides buyers
with a cash back incentive of up
to 1% of the property purchase price (e.g. up to $2,000 back on $200,000
property). This
buyer incentive is in addition to favorable terms and conditions that our
Exclusive Buyer Agents negotiate for property purchase. The
buyer incentive is credited to buyer by Jayne Hanlon Realty at closing. It
is funded through the listing broker cooperative commission or the seller paid commission
paid to Jayne Hanlon Realty. The
Buyer's Choice Program works well for
buyers who are comfortable navigating the
Internet and who are able to allocate adequate
time previewing in the
geographic search area.
The counties
included in this program are Lumpkin,
Dawson, Hall, and Forsyth. Terms and Conditions Apply, please
e-mail (Info@JayneHanlonRealty.com)
or call
us at 1-800-340-1515 for details.
