Creativity is What we Need these days

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Landmark

I just got an e-mail from a very creative insurance man that has recently started something that just might have some legs. I do not know all the specifics because it is so new but I expect to have a meeting with this man tomorrow. If it is as good as it seems, then it's a great tool that will put a smile on all of our faces. Here's the deal:

 

Right now many buyers are sitting on the fence because they are afraid that if they buy a home today, it won't be worth as much next year.

We all know that time solves these issues but buying a home is so emotional it is hard to overcome this concern.

What if I told you that for short money the seller can buy an "Assurance" plan that will gaurantee that if the value goes down then the assurance plan will kick in the difference!

 

Is this a great idea? Do you think that you would have buyers that are on the fence make an offer contingent that the seller buys this assurance for them?

If you can overcome the fear of just one of your buyers, is it worth it?

This could be a win,win,win situation.

Please, please, please blast a reply back to me if you think this might be something you want to know more about.

 

Simply write "I agree" and I will make sure buyers, sellers, and real estate agents know all the necessary details in 24hrs.

Again just comment the words "I agree" and I will take it from there. Feel free to ask me some questions that I might want to ask Mr. Insurance Man".

Keith,  Sounds like an interesting concept but putting it into practice could be tricky.  I'll watch for any updates you have on this subject.

Hi Carol. No sale is too easy these days.  I spoke to the creator of this  "guarantee this  your home will not lose value" program. I think there might be something to it. I will let you know after I am done researching it.  It looks darn good so far! Stay tuned...
