question 1.
WHAT DO THE REAL ESTATE AGENTS
THINK OF THIS SYSTEM ?
The good real estate agents are happy with it, we have received
overwhelming support from real estate agents.
All agents know that the paying of referral fees has been
a common practice within the real estate industry for many
years.
The practice of paying referral fees between real estate
agents is highlighted in literature from most of the major
franchise brands that operate in Australia.
These franchise groups operate thousands of real estate offices
across Australia and in their literature they openly encourage
the payment of referral fees between agents for new customers.

question 2.
THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I
HAVE BEEN INVOLVED WITH SELLING, WHAT SHOULD I DO ?
If you have made up your mind to sell we would advise you
to use a real estate agent to help you through the selling
process.
Despite the fact that the real estate agents fees are high
a good agent should ultimately increase your sale price.
A good agent will definitely increase your final sale price,
finding a good agent can be a challenge, if an agent refused
to participate in our refund system, for me that would be
a warning about that agent.

question 3.
WHAT IF THE REAL ESTATE AGENT
DOESN'T WANT TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS SYSTEM ?
If a real estate agent does not want to participate in this
system that is their choice, but remember that over 95% of
agents we have contacted are happy with the of paying referral
fees.
Our recommendation to you as a consumer would be to consider
not using that agent.
As there will be only one or two reasons why.
1. They don’t want to refund back to you some of your
own money !
2. They don’t want their service levels monitored and
rated by their own customers !
Would you really feel comfortable giving the keys to your
home to an agent that thinks like that ?

HOW LONG HAS YOUR SYSTEM
BEEN AROUND ?
The idea for our real estate agent refund system was first
put on the internet in a trial version in late 2005 our original
concept site for this business is www.refrealestate.com.au
As our idea was a completely new and original concept to
pay a refund on referral fees and as it has been developed
by our business there have been numerous improvements to this web site.
The response from consumers has been extremely positive and
grateful. The good news is many good real estate agents have
been extremely supportive as well.

question 5.
I'VE ONLY USED THE INTERNET
A FEW TIMES AND SELLING MY HOUSE IS STRESSFUL FOR ME, SHOULD
I SELL THE TRADITIONAL WAY BY GOING TO THE OFFICE OF AN ESTATE
AGENT CLOSE TO WHERE I LIVE ?
In 2009 more and more business is being done on line; our
site simply aims to take advantage of the benefits the internet
provides.
Please note this service is only applicable to people who
are selling property.
To receive the refund from our system we contact the agent
on your behalf to arrange an appointment for you to meet the
real estate agent in regard to putting your property on the
market.
