CARE Realty offers agents a "fairer deal,'' more services, plus a consumer friendly marketing system. Discover CARE today. REAL ESTATE AGENTS EARN MORE WHEN YOU SELL A CARE REALTY LISTING. CARE Realty introduced the CARE SAVINGS SYSTEM to give consumers, both buyers and sellers, the opportunity to SAVE 50% ON COMMISSIONS while still receiving full real estate services from licensed real estate agents. CARE stands for Consumer Advantages in Real Estate. Until now, agents who sold a CARE Realty listing received a full "traditional" selling commission. However, since CARE Realty offered consumers a fairer deal, we thought we should offer real estate agents a fairer deal too! Historically, the 46.5% of the full commission paid to the MLS selling agent was an approximation of a 50/50 split of the total commission, after the MILS fees were paid. As the price of homes increased over the tast 40 years, keeping the historical commission split created an inequity. On a’ $300,000 sale, the $12,000 commission is being split $5,580 to the selling agent and $6,420 io the listing agent who pays his MLS fees of $135 for a net of $6,285. That's a $695 inequity! Finally, CARE Realty corrects the inequity. As of October 8, 1993, CARE Realty offers selling agents a true 50/50 split, after MLS fees! You'll earn more selling a CARE Realty listing. Watch for selling commissions of 3.4325 on the first $100,000 and 1.25% on the balance.
