Is Menlo Atherton Realty’s discount listing service right for you?
Menlo Atherton Realty home sellers are savvy and wise. They know their property is an excellent one. There is no doubt the home will show well and sell quickly if properly priced. The house is well-decorated, in excellent condition, well-landscaped and shows pride of ownership. Many savvy home sellers do not want to pay a traditional 6% or even 5% real estate commission to sell their home.
However, these sophisticated home sellers do not wish to appear “cheap” by using one of the “help you to sell” services, or, even worse, by trying to sell the home themselves. Such home sellers recognize that potential home buyers can see through such strategies, as well as the fact that a million dollar property with a “For Sale By Owner” sign on it just doesn’t send the right message to potential home buyers. Yet, Menlo Atherton Realty sellers also know the importance and the value of competent, professional real estate representation in the sale of any home. Even a fantastic home selling in a strong sellers market needs quality representation.
Frequently, this type of property owner wants a real estate broker who will not only handle the sale of the current home, but also help find them a new home. Perhaps for retirement, investment property, vacation home or even their next primary residence. Menlo Atherton Realty home sellers appreciate the fact that our brokers have decades of experience, much more than typical agents. We provide the type of full-service representation that only a seasoned real estate broker can provide.
At Menlo Atherton Realty our discount real estate services deliver full-service and more all while charging a much lower realtor commission. Menlo Atherton Realty guarantees that the total real estate commission paid by a home seller will never exceed 3.5%. Better still, the TOTAL real estate commission a home seller will pay when using Menlo Atherton Realty to sell a home can sometimes be as low as only 2%, if one of our discount brokers represent both home buyer and home seller in the same transaction (with full disclosure to and consent of both parties per California real estate law).

At Menlo Atherton Realty, our discount commission realtors work with home sellers who are serious about selling their home. They recognize and appreciate the merits of our progressive real estate business model.
