HOW DOES IT WORK?

Discount Real Estate Brokers

In short, to build our discount real estate brokerage model we opted to leverage technology over antiquated real estate processes and extinct marketing techniques which are widely used by real estate agents.

We are an extremely efficiently run discount real estate brokerage that has successfully cut unnecessary overhead while increasing marketing exposure for our clients.

Through all of these structural improvements to the traditional real estate brokerage model, we are able to offer you complete, full service real estate services for only 1% commission on the listing side and can sell it for as little as 3% TOTAL commission.

We engaged Jim Jones from 1 Percent Lists Midsouth to sell our condominium. Despite challenging market conditions, Jim secured a contract within one day of listing our home. Although being a discount commission realtor (which saved us thousands of dollars), Jim provided the full array of real-estate services, from market analysis thru inspection and final closing. He even went above-and-beyond by providing transportation to our closing during an unforeseen winter storm. Jim was an absolute pleasure to work with and made the entire home-selling process seamless and stress-free. We are so thankful we chose Jim, and would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home.

Faye and Jim Jones are wonderful to work with. We are military family relocating to the Memphis area during a crazy time in the market. Faye and Jim helped us every step of the way. They viewed homes for us via FaceTime, they answered phone calls and countless questions about the area. When we finally found our home, the process went seamlessly! We are looking forward to moving to Memphis and spending more time with our favorite realty team, Faye and Jim Jones!

Jim Is a top notch realtor. When we started deciding listing price he thought I was too low and he was right. Our house sold in the 1st week after the open house with multiple offers, above asking price. Jim also helped us with our moving details and was there for us every step of the way. He answered all our questions and calls. He's more than just a realtor, he's now a good friend.

The Jones team did a great job of putting together a top notch presentation for a potential buyer of our home. We where very pleased with the handling of the sale of our home. Not all agents understand the needs and wants of a luxury home buyer. However the Jones team nailed it!Quick close verifying every detail and above ask. You can’t ask for more!

Faye Jones is an excellent agent to work with as she searched and found us the house of our dreams! She quickly arranged the sale of our old house along with a lake house out of town. The process went so smoothly and all was handled within 3 months. Unbelievable service! My husband and I highly recommend Faye!

Jim & Faye provided topnotch customer service going far beyond our expectations! Their negotiating skills helped us pay the lowest possible price for our home and they went above and beyond to coordinate repairs and take countless pictures and videos since we were buying sight unseen from overseas. I would strongly recommend them when it's time to buy or sell a home.

Memphis Real Estate Market

Memphis' housing market is not slowing down. Buyers are advised to act quickly if they want to make an offer. With fewer listings and more competition from homebuyers and investors, homes are selling quickly.

For a long time, Memphis housing has been in shortage. According to the Memphis Business Journal, fewer homes are being built because of a shortage of skilled workers and rising land development costs. This imbalance helps keep Memphis' real estate market strong.

Historical price changes and housing affordability

Investors with a long-term buy-and-hold strategy may seek out markets where price increases are slow but steady. Rentability is a measure of the demand for rental housing, and whether people will rent or buy.

UNDERSTANDING

DISCOUNT REAL ESTATE BROKERS

Many people embarking on selling their home do not fully understand how real estate commissions work. When selling your home, a commission is agreed upon by the seller and the listing agent The commission is referred to as a percentage of the final sales price. In many instances, but not always, the agreed upon commission is split between the listing agent and the selling agent. This is a crucial aspect of getting your home sold and for top dollar.

If the offer of commission on a property (to agent representing the buyer) is far below the 'going rate', many agents with ready and willing buyers may skip your property when showing houses. This is why many other discount real estate

brokers or flat fee brokers fall short They do not offer a competitive commission to the agent that brings the buyer.

With 1 Percent Lists version of a Discount Real Estate Broker, as the listing broker, we take only 1% of the sales price to list and market the home, while offering a competitive commission to the buyers agent - all the while, providing the same real estate services as a full service brokerage. Because our sellers are saving thousands of dollars by only paying 1 Percent Lists 1% of the sales price, they can offer their home at a lower sales price, offer a bonus to the buyers agent or simply pocket that money as well deserved equity.
