~ Independent Listing Agents Wanted ~

nnyRealty.com was established in 1998 to help individual property owners (FSBO) and banks (REO) get the exposure they need to sell their real estate without having to use a real estate broker. Since then our website (without any exaggeration) has helped our clients to sell well over 15 million dollars worth of property, saving them several thousands in real estate brokerage fees/commissions.

Having been a successful Real Estate Broker, I initially thought about making my website a national website like Forsalebyowner.com. I soon realized that I didn't have the funds to compete with these other websites on a national level and didn't want to be "A small fish in a very large pond". I also didn't want to become a business that didn't offer a personal touch with their clients. A website business that didn't have direct contact with their clients and couldn't advise them along the way. Consquently, I decided to be a "large fish in a small pond" concentrating my efforts in Northern New York.

I'd like your help in making a good thing great!

General. Independent nnyRealty Listing Agents will receive compensation based upon their qualifications, skills and how much work/effort is involved in the acquisition of property listings. The more you can do, the more you'll be paid. Compensation is also based upon a percentage of the total listing fees paid which may vary in different counties/areas.

Basic Compensation Rates.

1. Listing Client Referrals. Simply refer a property FSBO listing client to nnyRealty.com and receive 15% for the first referral and 25% (for subsequent referral's) of the current listing fee for confirmed paid listings. We'll take the photos and do the rest of the work.

2. Obtain a For Sale by Owner listing client on your own, take the photos, obtain listing details (within our stated listing guidelines), then submit/ forward/ e-mail them to nnyRealty.com for completion of the listing and receive 25 to 75% of the paid listing fee.

3. Obtain real estate related advertising clients for nnyRealty.com and receive up to 40% of the ad fee for prepaid 1 year contracts. nnyRealty will perform all of the ad design work. If you do the ad design work, you'll receive 50% of the ad fees. (Subject to ad size, placement within our website and other established criteria).

4. Research and submit bank foreclosure (REO) leads from local county records and/or banks/mortgage companies. Receive 10% commission for each referral that results in a paid foreclosure listing or make the contacts and secure the listings yourself (and take/obtain photos and listing details) to receive up to 25 to 75% of the paid REO listing fees.

Additional Compensation. The above stated compensation rates are meant to be minimum commission/compensation rates only and may be modified/increased based upon a yet to be determined formula/scale for high performing listing agents. Other incentives above and beyond those already stated may include the granting of exclusive nnyRealty marketing and/or listing rights within selected counties.While I have yet to figure it all out in finite detail, my bottom line is this ... " The more you can do, the more you'll get "

nnyRealty Marketing Materials. Independent Listing Agents may be required to purchase nnyRealty marketing materials (at our cost) based upon the level of their involvement with nnyRealty.com. These materials may include nnyRealty Business Cards and Yard Signs. As Independent Contractors/ Listing Agents these items as well as other in home office costs would/may classify as tax deductible business expenses.

Available FSBO Marketing Areas: Northern St. Lawrence County, Franklin County, North and Southern Herkimer County, Oswego and Oneida Counties. Other Upstate NY Counties considered.

Training: I'll personally go with you on your first FSBO listing (and more if necessary) and guide you through the listing process. I've also developed detailed "Photographic Guidelines" to be used in all of our listings. Additionally, I'll provide you with guidance on how to contact prospective FSBO Clients and what to say etc.
