Whether you shop at Costco or Sam's Club, almost everyone knows that you can find discounts when you buy in "bulk." When a company can sell more of their product at one time, they will generally discount that product in order to encourage larger buying and less overhead costs per transaction. It makes sense.

When operating a real estate company, bulk discounts are difficult to find and even more difficult to maintain. So rather than asking our companies to find discounts on their own, we do it for them. By uniting over 600 real estate offices and the buying power of more than 25,000 real estate agents, we have created a buying force able to negotiate significant discounts in the marketplace.

For example, through our office supply program, not only does each real estate company (no matter how large or small) receive national pricing discounts, each receives a 3-4% cash rebate on whatever they buy. For some companies, this can mean an extra $5,000-25,000 a year that goes straight to their bottom line. They can also allow agents to order and receive discounts while helping the company increase their rebate. In the past two years, our clients have received more than $250,000 in savings and rebates through this program. What's even more valuable is that no one has to check prices constantly or make sure that the company is being competitive because we handle it for them. This allows administrators and controllers to focus on what matters, the real estate operations, and not the trivial things that can add to the work load of an employee.

We have currently implemented or are in negotiations to implement the following:

• E&O Insurance
• Printing
• Yard Signs
• Telecommunications
• "Homes" Type Magazines

Again, our focus is residential real estate, but if you are looking for buying discounts, we would be happy to work with you and your entities in order to locate and implement the best possible prices. Contact Us if you are interested.
