Why did we copyright protect SCARY real estate?


According to industry publications there are currently over 2 million licensed real estate agents in the United States — Of this 1,359,208 are Realtors.   

With over 1.3 million licensed real estate agents as Realtors the primary difference among them is the number of years experience they have and how much they charge in commission.  What is often not discussed is how many have been sellng properties at a discount over the years?   

How many properties could have been sold for the same or higher price without paying commission?  

We answered these questions in 2001 while the real estate industry was still struggling with internet technology, State agency laws, and complicated industry regulation.  With over 6 million properties sold each year we estimate $110-$275 Billions could be saved by not locking consumers into a real estate commission.  The educated consumer will be able to compare all offers simultaneously whether they are from a Realtor, cash buyer, retail buyer, investor, or instituational buyers like Zillow and OpenDoor.  That’s why when you take a moment to visit the U.S. Government’s Library Of Congress Site Copyright.gov and search “scary real estate” in the Copyright registry you’ll quickly learn that the founder of NoDiscount.com had registered to protect a special report titled “We’re taking the SCARY out of real estate” under alternative titles The acronym SCARY in real estate and What are SCARY discounts in real estate?

For the frist time in the real estate industry’s 110 year history NoDiscount® has published a first publication to expose SCARY discounts that have been costing consumers 8-25% everytime they buy or  sell real estate.  This report is available free of charge when you register for a free test drive of NoDiscount.com and will open your eyes to hidden secrets that have been kept from the public for years.  We were proud to be the first in 2001 to have created a selling system to exploit these hidden discounts and helped to return them to a small group of pioneering investors and real estate brokers who took part in testing our business process.  Unfortunately, in the era of slow internet without smartphones only a few entrepreneurial minds were able to profit $20,000 – $40,000 – $50,000 – OR MORE.  

The idea of not getting locked into a real estate commission before seeing all the offers on a property was unheard of in 2001.  Due to a lack of knowledge, inexperience, and revolving door of agents entering and exiting the industry, most real estate agents ( virtually ALL ) have traditionally practiced locking consumers into a commission before even generating the first offer.  What they don’t realize is that by lockign consumers into a commission they are doing clients a disservice by limiting the number of possible offers.  One common example is when a seller is locked into a 6% commission the same seller will be less likely or unable to assist more buyers with closing cost or include other conveniences to generate multiple offers — This alone could cost sellers tens of thousands of dollars in higher offers.   Due to strict industry regulations and real estate companies with laggard business models from the 1970s — the unwary consumer who only bought or sold real estate once or twice in a lifetime was systematically forced to lose tens of thousands of dollars.   

On November 19, 2020 everything changed.  The U.S. Goverment through the U.S. Department of Justice and Federal Trade Commission helped to accelerate innovation and made possible for NoDiscount.com to debut as a solution to selling properties at a discount.   ASK your assigned agent about the SCARY REAL ESTATE report and start putting tens of  thousands of dollars back in your pocket — where they belong!

Buying and Selling A Home Sucks!!!!


“Let’s face it– No matter how you look at it — If you are one of the milions of Americans who will sell a home only once or twice in a lifetime….”

IT SUCKS!  AND IT SUCKS BIG TIME!!!

And there are several reasons why.  

First:  Regular real estate agents charge a lot of money and yet don’t really tell you what they are doing.  Your house becomes another “lost inventory” on the market waiting for the wrong buyers to discount.  Many agents make big promises but then lock you into a long term contract without a guarantee.  They sell you on the latest and most innovative marketing with bells and whistles to make you feel warm and fuzzy inside without understanding themselves that homes no longer require marketing to buyers.  BECAUSE BUYERS ARE ALREADY WAITING TO BUY 24 HOURS A DAY.  When these agents sell your home at a discount you LOSE.  They still WIN.

Next:  Discount real estate companies promise to save you thousands in commision and yet; they too– have no way to protect you from selling at a discount.  When they sell your home at a discount you LOSE.  You might save thousands in commission but you still LOSE when you sell at a discount. 

Then:  Instant cash buyers roam the market with cash offers at a discount.  These companies often talk down on Realtors but within 14-21 days of buying a home at a discount will list with a Realtor for tens of thousands in profit.  When you LOSE, they still WIN. 

It sucks even more:  Now there’s a new lending program that will allow a seller to buy a new home without the need to sell a current home.  The catch:  You must pay 1-2% of the new loan amount for the convenience and use their lender.    

More?  For buyers who don’t qualify to buy but want the freedom to live in the home of their choice now there’s a new program that will let them rent to own any home on the market.

At NoDiscount.com we make buying and selling a home like comparing airline tickets, hotel rooms, and restaurant deals.  Using a simple 1-page offer sellers can choose how soon they want to sell whether 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, or 1 month and compare offers simultaneously.  Buyers love the 1-page offer because they have better things to do with their time than spend hours writing offer after offer only to receive rejection after rejection without explanation why or how they’ve lost and if their offers were even submitted.   

We believe NoDiscount® will become the non sucky way to buy and sell homes for many years to come.

…to accept a cash offer or to NOT: Why not compare?


A recent article on Forbes discusses a trend that has been taking ( shocking ) the traditional Realtor industry by storm; and frankly— we don’t believe it’s such a big deal.

The ability to compare in real-time guarantees buyers the most transparent buying experience while protecting sellers from selling to the wrong buyers.

Tired of the wrong real estate commission?


Be sure to ask your agent about commission compression.  At NoDiscount.com we believe comparing commission is equally important as comparing offers on a home to identify the most profitable option. 

For nearly 110 years the real estate community and consumers have not been able to compare offers and commissions simultaneously.  Until now!  

NoDiscount.com is the “first and only” place that lets you compress all the buyers and commissions in a short period of time allowing you to compare actual cost of buying or selling in real-time. 

The simple truth is it doesn’t add up to compare commission unless all offers are presented at the same time.  That’s how NoDiscount.com can protect you from losing $20,000 to $50,000 — OR MORE!

United States vs. The Real Estate Industry


On June 5, 2018 the Federal Trade Commission, an arm of the United States Department of Justice, hosted a “What’s New in Residential Real Estate Brokerage Competition – An FTC-DOJ Workshop” to discuss concerns from varying players in the industry about the Competitive impact of nontraditional real estate fee and service models.  

http://https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/events-calendar/2018/04/whats-new-residential-real-estate-brokerage-competition-ftc-doj

Of interest to consumers should be the U.S. DOJ/FTC’s support for the Emergence and growth of nontraditional fee and service models. 

A settlement was reached and led to a final judgement on Tuesday, November 18, 2008.

We’re taking the SCARY out of real estate after 110 years!


Just as the Covid-19 had paused the entire world for nearly 2 years, we paused NoDiscount.com for 15 years as the U.S. Government and Real Estate Industry battled to accelerate innovation and commission transparency.  

An agreement between the US Department of Justice and Real Estate Industry on November 19, 2020 gave us the green light to transform the real estate industry like never before.  We’re on a serious mission to saving consumers $150-$350 billion a year by eliminating SCARY fees that can cost homebuyers and sellers $20,000 to $50,000 — OR MORE — each time they buy or sell a property. 

Tired of choosing the wrong real estate commission?  Are you a seller who isn’t getting enough offers for your home?  Are you a buyer who is confused by all the real estate agents promising the same same same services like everyone else?  What’s going on with all these companies offering to pay cash for houses?  How can you protect yourself from paying $20,000 to $50,000 — OR MORE — in fees and discounts that can be avoided?           

At NoDiscount.com we’re bringing science to the real estate industry so you can be empowered in the single most expensive decision a typical buyer or seller makes in a lifetime. 

Afterall– Waiting 15 years wasn’t too bad when you consider the real estate business has not changed in almost 110 years.
