The knowledge I gained in the ExpressOffers Certification Program and training sessions will allow me to provide additional opportunities to my seller clients. Here is how...

iBuying, or instant buying, is a rapid way for homeowners to sell their homes without the hassle of listing it, staging it or holding open houses. But, not all iBuying programs are alike, particularly when it comes to eXp Realty’s iBuying program, ExpressOffers.

While other iBuying programs tend to throw the sellers into a “blind” system with no representation, at ExpressOffers, a seller gets matched with an eXp Realty Real Estate Advisor who is certified and trained in the ExpressOffers program. That means sellers — if they choose — have their fiduciary interests properly represented by an eXp Real Estate Advisor who helps them consider both options: iBuying or listing their home on the open market.

How ExpressOffers Works:
⦿ Home sellers submit a request to sell their home on ExpressOffers.com.
⦿ An eXp Realty Real Estate Advisor who is certified by eXp in iBuying is then matched with the seller who receives a thorough disclosure and is walked through every detail of the process.
⦿ eXp Real Estate Advisors may also submit properties on behalf of current or potential clients.
⦿ The eXp Real Estate Advisor then submits the request to a number of institutional buyers who are interested in purchasing the home.
⦿ Properties may qualify to be submitted to more than one buyer, potentially yielding multiple cash offers.

How Investors Benefit:
⦿ New lead source from thousands of eXp Real Estate Advisors working in the marketplace.
⦿ No minimum purchase; simply offer or pass on each property.
⦿ Low acquisition fee paid only on closed transactions at closing.
⦿ Seller pays agent commission, which is only listing side to the Real Estate Advisor.
⦿ An Real Estate Advisor guides the seller through the transaction.
⦿ Investors can re-list with eXp Real Estate Advisors for 1.5% commission.

How Sellers Benefit:
⦿ Convenience options allow sellers to sell quickly and hassle-free for cash when situations may require a more aggressive approach than going the traditional market route.
⦿ They will have a certified eXp ExpressOffers Real Estate Advisor by their side to explain and compare the benefits of an ExpressOffer versus going on the open market.
⦿ They only pay the listing side of the commission (no buyer’s agent commission), if using ExpressOffers.
⦿ No “convenience fees” or hidden costs to use ExpressOffers.
⦿ Using ExpressOffers provides speed, convenience and control, relieving the uncertainty of a traditional sale.
⦿ Flexible terms; the seller chooses the closing date.
