Something didn't happen to real estate.
You used to need someone to provide you with all of the information about real estate. You'd call them on the phone. They'd answer. After a few minutes of small talk you'd know everything thing you wanted to know about a house or neighborhood.
Today, all of this information is available online instantly.
Yet, you're paying the same amount or more in real estate commissions. Surely, we're getting more for our money now, right?
If all of the information is readily available, why don't agents answer the phone when you call them? Why is it so hard to get a callback, or a simple text reply?
For nearly five decades, the commissioned real estate agents benefitted from their proprietary information and closed network. Gaslighting buyers and sellers that the other side was truly paying for the cost of their services.
In actuality, everyone is losing.
Add up your real estate transactions. Did you receive 6% of the transaction back in quality service? The median home price in the United States is $412,227. That is $24,733.62, in real estate commission...
Commissioned real estate agents may still make sense for some customers. But their ownership of the market is over. You already have all of the information you need. You just need someone that knows what they are doing to help you buy, sell or rent a home.
People are used to paying for a service and understanding what they are paying for. What are you paying for when you pay a commissioned real estate agent? It's time to know what you are paying for.
Introducing House Done, a new type of real estate service.
- Pay for the services you use, not a random percentage.
- Full control over the transaction.
- Simple and straightforward, not convoluted and confusing.
- We tell you what you need to do, you choose if you want to do it.
- All from one simple location.
Our first product is a marketplace. It's an online real estate marketplace similar to other real estate sites, except we can actually get stuff done for you. More functionality is on the way in 2024.
Around 2009 we created software to help banks communicate with real estate agents selling their properties. Now, a decade later, we are using that experience to help you buy and sell real estate at a much lower cost.
Stay tuned.
