Why The Legacy Group?
Flexible commissions, easy cancellation and
“No Pressure” presentations of offers…
to name just a few reasons!
P
ut more money in your pocket with our Flexible Commissions. Most Brokers will
charge you the same fee no matter how your home sells… even if you find the buyer.
With The Legacy Group you have complete flexibility.
What if you, the owner, procure a buyer and there is no other agent involved? You pay
The Legacy Group nothing. Total Commission is 0%. If you would like The Legacy Group
Listing Specialist to write the contract and process it through escrow, you merely pay a Total
Commission of 1%.
If your property sells to a buyer procured through the MLS or The Legacy Group
marketing. and another agent represents the buyer -- the buyer’s agent’s commission is 3% and
The Legacy Group Listing Specialist’s commission is 3%. Total Commission is 6%.
Y
ou can withdraw your listing with The Legacy Group at any time according to our
Easy Exit Listing Agreement. Simply provide us with 24-hour written notice, and
the cancellation becomes effective immediately; however, allow five business days to
have the sign removed and the listing withdrawn from the Multiple Listing Service.
O
ur “No Pressure” Presentations of Offers: You authorize your Listing Specialist
to receive all offers, which they will then present to you. This means there’s no
pressure coming from the agent representing the potential buyer. Just a calm
conversation between you and your trusted Legacy Group Listing Specialist.

Multiple Listing Service
A

enter listings into the MLS but most only submit the minimum required
information. All of our listings are submitted in their entirety with a written
description of the property, photos, virtual tour, disclosure paperwork, and
driving directions. This is the first place that agents with qualified buyers look for properties.
It is our goal to make sure that they find yours and are enticed to show their clients.

Yard Signs
O
ur unique signage is designed to encourage interested buyers to call. This
sign will promote your property 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The 922–7355 phone number is a direct line to The Legacy
Group and our agents, and we answer our phones 7 days a week from
9:00 am to 8:00 pm. If a prospective buyer calls about your house, one of our team
members will be available to answer their questions and show them your property.
If that possible buyer chooses to call the 800 number printed on our property
flyers, they will begin with recorded information and will then be directed to one of our
agents to have a conversation with a real person who knows about your house and the
neighborhood.
The bottom line? We capture more buyers in more ways
than anyone else in town!

Full Color Flyers
hether they’re at your house for a full showing or just driving by -- prospective
buyers will leave with information that will not only help them remember the look
of your house but its features as well.
Our professional photography will showcase your house and allow those
just driving by a view of what they missed inside. Our flyers have a clear call to action in three
ways: your Listing Specialist’s phone number, the Legacy Group office number or the 800 number
with recorded information. If a buyer calls any of those three numbers (depending on their
comfort level) we will either talk with them or have their number so we can call them back.
They’ll see your home at its best with our professional flyers!
The Legacy Group • 509-922-7355 • 1015 N. Calispel, Ste. A • Spokane, WA 99201
Meticulous Attention to the Details...
Professional Photography
We put your property in the best light possible -- literally!
With our professional photography services (at no extra
cost to you), potential buyers will see the most desirable
qualities of your house put front and center. Then we use
those photos everywhere: on our color flyers, in our
virtual tours, on the Multiple Listing Service and marketed
out into the internet at large on Zillow, Trulia, realtor.com
and many other sites.
Home Staging
We have partnered with the best home stager in the
Spokane area. Having your home staged can result in it
selling in substantially less time and for closer to your
asking price. Our home stager will develop a plan of
action for getting your home showroom-ready and talk
with you about pricing options. Because of its powerful
return on investment, we strongly recommend staging
your home to sell in any market.
Showing Feedback
After each showing of your house an email requesting feedback
is automatically sent to the agent who brought the potential
buyers -- within 15 minutes! The house and their buyers’
reactions are fresh in their minds, and we’re able to get that
information to you. This feedback is very important in
determining what adjustments need to be made throughout the
listing period.

HOMESTYLE RENOVATION LOAN
What is a renovation loan and how does it work?
What, Why, How
Renovation financing allows someone to purchase your home if it’s in less than ideal condition or
great condition but a person wants to put their personal touch on it: cabinets, granite, flooring, an
addition, etc. They can make the improvements immediately after closing and there is no
minimum renovation amount.
Who Can Benefit
Homebuyers can purchase your home in any condition “as-is” and begin their renovation
immediately after closing. The loan closes and funds prior to any work beginning. There are no
restrictions on the type of improvements that can be made, however all improvements must be
fixed to the property and add value. Luxury items are permitted: new pool, deck-pavers…Vision!
Common Misconceptions
“Renovation loans are hard to do and complicated.“ Not true! It all comes down to the people
that are involved in the process. We have a designated renovation team that will help sell your
home quickly. A renovation loan should take no more than 30 days to close. The Legacy Group
and Movement Mortgage look forward to helping you sell your home!
