Exclusive program helps clients buy and sell with confidence
For most people, your home is your largest and most important investment. But one of the reasons home buyers hesitate to purchase is uncertainty, especially when inventory is low and buyers must act quickly when they find a home that meets their criteria.
Allen Tate | Howard Hanna understands the importance of being sure about your home, so much that the company will guarantee it – with its 100% Money Back Guarantee Program.
“We’re proud to bring back this exclusive program, first launched by Allen Tate in 2020. Money Back Guarantee gives buyers confidence in the home they are purchasing, knowing that they can change their mind for any reason after closing and we will stand by the property for 100% of the purchase price – guaranteed,” said Gary Scott, president, Allen Tate Companies.
“We believe in the value of every home we sell, and we proudly stand behind that value with this program,” Scott said.
The 100% Money Back Guarantee program offers advantages for sellers, as well as buyers. It sets a home apart from other homes for sale in the market, making it more desirable to buyers, and helps it to sell faster, at the highest fair market price.
“When you list your home for sale, the No. 1 rule for success is exposure to the largest number of potential buyers. The Money Back Guarantee is one more way for your listing to stand out and be noticed,” Scott said.
But do buyers really change their mind after they’ve purchased a home?
“Our Realtors do everything they can to help a buyer find the right home, but sometimes it just doesn’t work out. Maybe the buyer moved to a new city for a job, and it just wasn’t the right opportunity. Maybe they didn’t count on the commute, or their business moved to a different location. Or maybe, they simply fall in love with another home or neighborhood,” Scott said.
The 100% Money Back Guarantee is available on all free-standing, single-family homes listed for sale by Allen Tate priced from $75,000 to $600,000. There is no cost to the seller to offer the 100% Money Back Guarantee.
Buyers who choose to participate in the program will pay 1% of the home’s sale price at closing, and the guarantee will be valid for 12 months. Certain restrictions apply; interested buyers should contact their Allen Tate Realtor for details.
“There are many things in this world that are uncertain, but our home should be something we are sure about. We’re proud to offer this program so our clients can both buy and sell a home with confidence,” Scott said.
