O ne of northeast Ohio’s leading Realtors isoffering homeowners an innovative approachto home selling. It’s Ohio Family Realty’sLifetime Realtor Program. Details can be

viewed at www.OhioFamilyRealty.com.According to President Mike DeAnna, once you

sell your home using Ohio Family Realty, you neverpay them for real estate services again. If the firmrepresents you on the purchase of a new home, itwill also sell your old house for free. And when it’stime to sell your new home, they will sell that homefor free too!

“The savings are phenomenal. For example,let’s assume that you are selling a $190,000 home.With an average commission of six percent, youwould have to pay the Realtor $11,400. With theLifetime Realtor Program, you wouldn’t have to paya cent. Multiply the $11,400 by eight homes, or theaverage amount of times people move, and that’s$91,000 that you would save in commissions bybecoming a member of the Lifetime RealtorProgram. And the program is free,” said DeAnna.

“Historically, when people sell their home, theypay off the mortgage, pay a six to seven percentreal estate commission, and have additional moneyremaining,” said DeAnna. Now, all that has changed.With the drop in sales prices these last few years,people barely have money to pay off the mortgage,let alone pay the commission. The papers are fullof news that home prices havedeclined about seven percent. In aneffort to help buyers and sellers absorbthat pain, we have decided to waiveour commission fees for members ofthe new Lifetime Realtor Program.

Never Pay Your Realtor Againwith the Lifetime Realtor Program

That right there saves the customer the sevenpercent in valuation decline.”

The program has also allowed many buyers toreduce the price of their home by $5,000 to $10,000to make it more competitive in the marketplace.

Ohio Family Realty provides:• An evaluation of the home, its competition and

current market conditions.• Preparation of disclosure statements.• A listing on the Multiple Listing Service.• Photography of the property.• Placement of a lock box.• Scheduling the property for MLS tours.• Listing the property on the leading real estate

Web sites.• Advertising the property in various newspapers.• Showing the property to other agents.• Pre-qualifying potential buyers.• Providing continuous feedback on the status

of the property to the seller.• Reviewing and presenting all offers to the seller.• Negotiating on behalf of the client.• Finalizing the closing.Participants in the Lifetime Realtor Program also

receive free lifetime assistance with:• Locating properties that meet their criteria if

they decide to move.• Locating appropriate lenders for pre-approval.• Showing their home, at their convenience, to

potential buyers.• Obtaining information on state-required

disclosures and forms.• Presenting the offer.• Negotiating sale terms and conditions on

behalf of the client.• And, much more!Ohio Family Realty has been serving northeast

Ohio since 2002. It serves as a one-stop shop forall of the buyer’s and seller’s real estate needs.
