DESCRIPTION
Empower Realty investor materials. Empower Realty is a disruptive, fully-licensed real estate brokerage model that uses the internet to help consumers buy and sell residential real estate at very substantial savings. For example, a buyer who initiates an offer online for a $200,000 house receives online professional support and $3000 cash back at closing. Sellers who list their home for sale with the company can do so at savings of up to 30% relative to traditional firms like Coldwell Banker, Edina Realty and RE/MAX. Every home listed for sale by a competitive Realtor on the MLS can be purchased with the assistance of Empower Realty. Empower Realty relies on a comprehensive SAAS backbone (8000 engineering hours, 50-state regulatory compliance, multiple patents pending) to deliver an ultra-low operating cost. And with relatively few “boots on the ground”, Empower Realty is the only scalable rebate model in the industry.
