I love this Blog, I have entered homes that looks like this.. LOL

Via Amy Jones (Chandler, Arizona RE/Max Excalibur):

Words are not needed when the marketing photos speak for themselves. The property discription for this home is listed as simply this: "3 bedroom, 2 Bath home in gated subdivison, on cul-de-sac, right next to community pool." AHHH that sounds so lovely.

But the photos say "No really, you shouldn't come in here without a mask and steel-toed shoes. By they way, are you up-to-date on your tetanus shots?"

I think the photos are a little dark..but that's probably a good thing. I really wonder if there's any value to using photos like this except that it did save me and my buyer a trip.

By the way, this can ALL be yours for only $124,000. Trash included.

USAA MOVERS ADVANTAGE

USAA Movers Advantage
I spent weeks trying to become a REALTOR for USAA movers advantage. Well, I was in for a rude awaking, and yes I said RUDE! The program is geared to put money back into the buyers pocket which is great for the home buyer. Only not so good for the REALTOR involved, it is a referral program from USAA MOVERS ADVANTAGE to get money to have for a refund for their clients. The REALTOR involved in the referral process cannot disclose to anyone how the program works. Why, because USAA movers advantage do not wont their clients or anyone else to know the facts. Now that just dont sound Right!

USAA movers advantage gives their clients money back, if they use USAA movers advantage. The Realtor that is referred to them has agreed to give 20-35% of their commission back to USAA, who in return gives "PART" of it back to their client. Yes I said PART of it.

As a Realtor I strive very hard to make the buying and selling process as stress free as possible for my clients. It upsets me to know that USAA movers advantage is the one claiming to be putting the money back into the buyers pocket. When in all actuality it the REALTOR who is giving the BONUS. USAA movers advantage gives only a portion to the buyers and keep the rest.. Now that doesn't sound Fair.

In Alabama and Mississippi , as a Realtor, we are not allowed to give away cash as a gift or bonus to an unlicensed person. So is USAA movers advantage a real estate company licensed.

I urge buyers to find a REALTOR they like, trust and have confidence in. One that will work for their best interest, you will end up better off if your REALTOR works for you and does not have to give up most of their commission.

Buyers say they are working with USAA movers adavantage, but the advantage appears to be more for USAA Movers Advantage than the buyer.

I have helped several Military families find and sell homes in the Mississipi, Alabama Gulf Coast area. I would love to help you too. Call or email me at alice@alicebroadway.com
