Discount Real Estate Companies Covington, KY

Northern Kentucky Discount Real Estate Companies: Discount real estate companies have been competing with large franchise offices and mega-brokers for decades. After witnessing the success of other discount real estate companies, Mary LaMeres-Pomin and Lyle Martin realized they needed a competitive advantage if they were going to compete successfully with the “big boys.” They came up with a simple concept; charge home sellers less and do a large enough volume of business to make up for the lower fees. Thus, Assist-2-Sell was born.

Business took off as they began targeting “For Sale by Owners” (FSBOs) with their discounted commission rates. Recognizing the home seller’s need for full service and with reasonable fees, they made the adjustment and evolved into a “full service discount commission” model.

In addition to the low fee commission structure, Assist-2-Sell agents are in a better position to service their client while the office handles marketing the home for sale. Traditional real estate agents charge high commissions while they scramble to find more listings. Their marketing efforts are typically limited to placing the home in the MLS and running an occasional newspaper ad.

Assist-2-Sell has quickly grown as brokers and agents began calling Mary and Lyle to inquire about buying their own franchise. The first franchise office opened in April of 1994 and by the end of the year, Assist-2-Sell opened their fifth office.

Assist-2-Sell has become one of the fastest-growing discount real estate companies and has been recognized as one of the top real estate franchises by Entrepreneur Magazine and The Wall Street Journal’s StartupJournal.com. Currently, there are hundreds of Assist-2-Sell offices throughout the U.S. and Canada.

Assist-2-Sell has saved home sellers over $900 million in real estate commissions and they continue to be the leading discount real estate company in North America. Jodi Funke and her team of discount real estate agents serve consumers in Northern Kentucky.
