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.

for this program?

5) When you've chosen the home
you want… make an offer. Our agents will help you through the

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.
