HOLMCO Buyer-Side Rebate Program
**Get CASH BACK after closing on your next home purchase**
 

We understand that most buyers love being very instrumental and 'hands-on' while searching for their next real estate purchase.  By actively participating in the search for your home, you save us time and money, and we pass these savings on to you in the form of a REBATE after closing.  When a property is listed for sale, the seller typically pays a commission to the buyer's real estate agent.  Most real estate agents keep all of the commission for themselves.  When you use one of HOLMCO Property Solutions' sales agents as your exclusive buyer's agent and purchase a home, we don't keep all of the commission - we give you up to 1% rebate on your home purchase!  This money can be used however you wish because it's YOUR MONEY. 

By taking advantage of the Buyer-Side Cash Rebate program, you can rest assured that we will utilize our most effective negotiating skills to get you the best price on your home, closely monitor every aspect of the transaction to ensure a smooth running and strive to avoid any unnecessary snags or delays. In addition, you will receive up to 1% rebate after closing.  Complete details on the  Buyer-Side Rebate Program are outlined below.  Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us via email at info@holmcosolutions.com.  Please remember that the Buyer-Side Rebate program applies to all properties listed for sale where a commission is offered - including those listed with another real estate company and includes new construction as well as previously owned homes.

How does the Buyer Brokerage Agreement Work?

We use the standard Georgia Association of Realtors Exclusive Buyer Brokerage Agreement form. This agreement must be completed and faxed to our office BEFORE we can show any properties to you.  By completing this agreement, Sebastian Holmes (Broker) or any agent affiliated with HOLMCO Property Solutions are able to act as your exclusive Buyer's Agent and work on your behalf to help you purchase real estate. Georgia state law mandates that you are a 'customer' unless you sign a Buyer Brokerage Agreement. As a customer, the listing agent is required only to treat you with honesty and fairness because they have a fiduciary relationship with the seller. The seller's agent is NOT there to represent your best interest. Georgia state law prohibits a Broker from representing a Buyer as a client without first entering into a written agreement with the Buyer (O.C.G.A.§ 10-6A-1 et.seq.). If a real estate agent agrees to show you properties without completing the Buyer Brokerage Agreement they may not be acting in your best interest and may not be able to negotiate with the seller to ensure you get the best price.

There may be some confusion about the Buyer Brokerage Agreement with people who are unfamiliar with real estate contracts. The Buyer Brokerage Agreement simply states that you agree to use Sebastian Holmes (Broker) or any agent affiliated with HOLMCO Property Solutions as your exclusive agent for the purchase of real estate. You will not buy any real estate without our assistance during the contract period. In general, real estate commissions are paid by the seller and not by the buyer. The language in the contract concerning commissions applies only if you would like to purchase a property that is not paying a commission, and then the buyer would be required to pay the commission. In reality, this almost never occurs since all properties offered in the FMLS or MLS and through HUD Pemco pay a commission. Even most "For Sale by Owner" properties will offer a commission by "protecting agents." Please note that the Buyer Brokerage Agreement can be cancelled at any time. If you have any questions concerning the language of this document please do not hesitate to contact us via email (info@holmcosolutions.com) or phone (678) 376-0617.
