Q: Why should we use Charity Realty?
A: For Sellers:
Your property gets exposed to millions of potential buyers by listing it on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS).

For Buyers:
We offer full service real estate services and will donate 20% of our commission to your favorite charity organization. Charity must be a U.S. 501c (3) in good standing.  The only difference is that you drive by the homes by yourself prior to us setting the showing appointments to show you the interiors of the houses. There are no pushy agents. We only show you homes that you want to see. Our service is unparalleled in the industry we hire well informed and technical savvy agents.

Q: If I see a house that I like, why not call the listing agent and ask for a contribution vs. using Charity Realty?
A: The listing broker works for the seller of the house and is obligated to get them the best price. The listing broker can have a conflict of interest by representing the seller AND you (the buyer). We provide you with all the sale comparables to make the most intelligent offer. You are guaranteed a donation from our company, but not necessarily from the listing broker.

Q: What if I found a house that I like by attending an open house?
A: No problem, just tell the listing agent you are represented by Charity Realty and we will write the offer for you.

Q: What if I want to buy a new home?
A: Most homebuilders require that we accompany you on your first visit to the project. Just give us a call at 1-877-585-6687 and we will tour the new homes with you. Please note that not all homebuilders pay a commission to outside real estate agents.

Q: I am a first time house buyer and don't know anything about the process of buying. Can you help?
A: Absolutely! Our sale associates are trained to take you through the process from start to finish and explain everything to you. We even have a buyer's checklist for you.

Q: How does Charity Realty work for buyers?
A: Just as any real estate agent, by commission alone. Most agents work for 6-7% of the price of the house. We work for less. For example, on a $200,000 home, the charity will get up to $1,200 donation at closing. We also hope that the experience was easier and more relaxed than you expected (or experienced in the past). Word of mouth is our best advertising.

Q: How can you do that?
It's simple. Instead of paying for fancy, high-priced office space and spending big bucks to advertise, we use the efficiencies offered by the Internet. By taking advantage of our dynamic web page and the ease of shared information online, we are able to offer you the same product and still donate 20% of our commission to charity.

Q: How do I sign up for this program?
A: 1) You'll need to decide that Charity Realty will serve as your agent (buyer agent). Click here to start by reviewing the terms and conditions and selection Charity Realty as your agent.

2) Once you've logged on to our system, you should get pre-qualified for your loan. This way you will only be looking at homes in your price range.

3) Use our network to find homes you would like to view.

4) Our qualified real estate agents will show you the homes you wish to view.

5) When you've chosen the home you want… make an offer. Our agents will help you through the process. We will donate to 20% of our commission to your charity.

Q: Do I get a tax deduction for the donation to the Charity

A: No, Charity Reality is the company that is actually making the donation. The charity still benefits by receiving the donation.
