McGrath & Associates’ $2,495
full-service flat-fee program continues to provide smart home sellers with an affordable
alternative

Mr. Jones of 1965 Taramea Lane, Ceres, sold his property for $17,000 over the asking price and
saved thousands off traditional real estate commissions using McGrath & Associates $2,495 flat-fee,
full-service program. Guaranteed savings.

According to Dr. Rick McGrath, Ph.D., Realtor broker-owner, technology has revolutionized the cost of selling your property. Now, it is possible for home sellers to save thousands of dollars using an affordable and much more sensible full-service $2,495 flat-fee program that saves thousands of dollars off traditional real estate commissions.

Rick McGrath will solved your “Home Seller” puzzle

Home sellers traditionally depend on Realtors to list their homes for a hefty commission because they control access to the MLS. Now, thanks to growing technology, the Internet has developed platforms open to public viewing. Now, every prospective home-buyer, every investor and every real estate agent gets instant notification of properties listed.

Technology has changed the way we book our vacations, hotels and airline tickets.

“The future of selling real estate is no different and that future is here,” says McGrath. “For years, large brick and mortar real estate firms have enjoyed making their fortunes off the hard-earned equity of home-owners. They want you to believe that you need to pay huge commissions to get the exposure you need and negotiate for top dollar.

Gold Key With Welcome Home According to Rick McGrath

“That is nothing further from the truth. Once your listing is submitted to the MLS and our syndicated website, every licensed agent, prospective buyer and investor will see it. In today’s Internet world, the size of the real estate company doesn’t matter. The only question is how much will it cost for the same results? You can pay 6 percent, 5 percent, or even 4 percent, but why? There is no sense in paying so much when there is a more affordable alternative available.

“The current real estate market is on fire and often properties sell within a few days, many getting multiple offers. Sellers now have an opportunity to cash in on their hard-earned equity and save thousands of dollars using our $2,495 flat-fee pro-gram,” says McGrath.

“Home sellers routinely wonder, ‘Why do I have to pay twice as much as the person who has a $100,000 home? They pay $6,000 but because I have a $200,000 property, Realtors want to charge me $12,000. Realtors spend the same amount of time on both properties.’ We believe these home sellers have a valid concern,” says McGrath. There is no reason for home sellers to have to pay more than they should.

Coins Around House Shows Home Savings Or Construction Business

For anyone thinking of selling, it’s important to price you property within market value.

“The typical real estate agent spends approximately six hours, start to finish, with each home seller or buyer,” McGrath says.

“When you put that into perspective based on an hourly rate, we can understand why home sellers feel like they’re being taken advantage of. There are hundreds of homeowners who would like to sell and move but they just don’t have enough equity, especially when they have to pay such high commission rates to sell their property.”

Each month dozens of proper-ties go unsold because homeowners have to list well above market value, hoping to cover the costs needed to move and pay the real estate agent. This is why McGrath & Associates has taken technology to the next level by developing its full-service, flat-fee program for an affordable $2,495.

“This isn’t a For Sale by Owner or discount program. Though we do offer a For Sale By Owner program for $1,495,” says McGrath. “Unlike other real estate companies, we are committed to giving each home seller everyday advertising in the Modesto Bee until the property is sold. Each property is listed on our syndicated Web site that publishes to Trulia.com, Zillow.com, Homes.com, Realtor.com,

Yahoo, Google real estate and

many others.

McGrath & Associates cooper-ate with other real estate compa-nies as often as possible, listing properties on the local MLS for as little as 2 percent commission. This provides even more expo-sure and ensures home sellers get the most for their property. When we bring the buyer, the seller only pays a $2,495 flat-fee plus ordinary seller closing costs associated with selling property.

“We handle all the negotiations to make sure our clients get top dollar and handle all the required paperwork and duties common to Realtors from start to finish, McGrath says. “Everyone pays the same amount.”

These home sellers will save thousands:

A 3804 Argonaut, Modesto, saved thousands off traditional commissions.

A 1615 Flower Garden, Ceres, saved thousands off traditional commissions.

A 242 Scarlet, Patterson, saved thousands off traditional commissions.

For those who have tried to sell in the past 12 months and beyond, properties may have gone unsold because the asking

price was in excess of market value.

“This is the perfect program that just might make all the difference in the world. The market is very hot right now and proper-ties are selling for top dollar,” says McGrath.

For anyone thinking of selling, it’s important to price your property within market value.

“Overpricing your property will cause you to miss out on the ‘newness’ that occurs within the first few weeks properties come on the market. Buyers tend to look at what is just listed and forget what is still left on the market, chasing the next ‘just listed’ property,” says McGrath. “If you’re looking for an easier way to sell your home and save thousands of dollars, then it’s time to put our plan to work.”

Dozens of home sellers saved thousands of dollars in 2014 using McGrath’s services.

“ARE YOU PLAYING THE RIGHT INSTRUMENT?”July 19, 2015/in Business, Common Mistakes, Computer Internet & Our World, Customer Service, Freedom, Responsibility, Small Business /by Gail Wilson

Consider this... By Mike Johnson

“ARE YOU PLAYING THE RIGHT INSTRUMENT?”

I’ve long since forgiven Mrs. O’Brien.

As the sixth grade orchestra teacher, it was her job to recruit a full complement of string instrument players for the Cedar Manor Elementary School Orchestra.

And a fine job she was doing too, with the exception of cello. Try as she might, each one-on-one conference with the 12-year-old students in our class left her with yet another violinist. A few had chosen viola. Two of the cooler kids had picked bass. By the time she got to me, she was desperately twisting arms for cello.

I went down like a music stand pushed into an orchestra pit.

Never mind that the instrument was taller than I was. Never mind that I was a “walker” and would have to carry the thing nine blocks home and back every weekend. The only thing that mattered was I hadn’t yet decided which instrument I wanted to play and Mrs. O’Brien was going to help me make the choice.

Cedar Manor got their cellist.

Six years later, after hating the instrument for all but the first five minutes, I finally hung up my last rosined bow.

Had I given the matter any thought, I would’ve chosen guitar or banjo or even harmonica. Something that was more portable, with a wider range of entertainment possibilities. Something I would use my entire life. But with the passage of each year, it was harder and harder to quit that cello. All that time invested! You don’t want to waste all that time you’ve already spent do you?

Looking back on it now, Mrs. O’Brien looks pretty darn self-centered pushing a four foot kid into a five foot instrument. She had me by authority, by age, by experience, and by size.

But even so, knowing what I wanted would’ve been the only defense I’d have needed to prevent accepting what I didn’t want. Knowing nothing, I took anything. And hung on.

She may have severely miscast me in my string assignment. And she certainly failed in her efforts to make me an accomplished cellist. But she did succeed famously in an area she’d never intended.

Six years of dragging that cello around helped crystallize knowledge that was useful for the rest of my life: If we’re not clearly focused on our own goals, we’re easy prey for others eager to recruit us for theirs.

Years later, it’s easy to recognize Mrs. O’Briens everywhere. They’re in employers. In friends. In family. They may mean well when they push us to do this and that, but anyone who pushes isn’t really interested in what we want. They’re using us to get what they want.

And when we find ourselves face to face with them, we have but one defense – (short of hitting them with a cello) and that’s having a clear vision of what WE want. Once we’ve tuned our ear to that melody, the Mrs. O’Briens lose their power over us.

25 years later, it turns out that Mrs. O’Brien did succeed with her music lessons. Not through offering an instrument – but by becoming one. She became the instrument through which I would learn one of life’s greatest truths: The only music worth playing is the music that plays in our hearts.

Everything else is just a cello.
