AriZona Real Estate insider!

Hello My Fellow Realtors,

If you’ve registered at any Camelot Homes new build in Arizona, like I did with my clients, you probably got that intriguing email about their buyer broker commission fee, titled “N/A.” If not, let me fill you in on an incredible opportunity that could seriously boost your earnings this year—and let’s be real, in this slower market, we could all use a little boost!

With the market changes, it’s now a 50/50 shot whether a home seller is offering a commission for bringing a buyer. Plus, ARMLS no longer lets us advertise commissions, which means we’re left calling sellers or their agents to figure out if any compensation is on the table—or negotiating it into the offer. But with Camelot Homes, it’s a whole different story. This builder is making sure we’re compensated, and they’ve rolled out a fantastic Escalating Commission Program that rewards us for doing what we do best—selling homes!

Advice For home sellers considering not offering any compensation, be aware that builders like Camelot Homes are not only providing better rates and incentives but are also offering more competitive buyer broker commission fees. In a competitive market, where builders are actively attracting buyers, offering some level of compensation could be crucial in drawing interest to your property. It’s worth considering offering at least some compensation to enhance your property’s appeal and attract potential buyers.

Camelot Homes’ Escalating Commission Program: Here’s How It Works

First impressions matter, and with Camelot Homes, that first sale is just the start. Here’s how their escalating commission program works:

• 3% Commission on Your First Sale: Close your first deal with Camelot Homes, and you’ll pocket a solid 3% commission on the base price (minus any discounts). A great way to kick things off!
• Up to 5% Commission on Subsequent Sales: This is where it gets really exciting! For every additional sale you bring within the same year, your commission rate can escalate up to 5%. That’s almost double the commission for simply doing what you do best—selling high-quality homes!

Why This Program is a Game-Changer

Imagine selling just two or three Camelot homes this year—not only will you boost your sales volume, but you’ll also be maximizing your commission. For those of us who thrive on building strong client relationships and delivering top-notch service, this program is a golden opportunity.

Here’s a quick breakdown:

• First Sale: $1,500,000 home at 3% = $45,000 commission
• Second Sale: $1,600,000 home at 5% = $80,000 commission

Total Commission: $125,000 for just two sales!

Why Work with Camelot Homes?

If you’ve already worked with Camelot Homes, you know what to expect—consistent quality, great communication, and a focus on client satisfaction. This Escalating Commission Program is just another way they’re showing they value us as partners.

When Do You Get Paid?

We all know how important cash flow is, so here’s the good news:

• For standard builds, you get paid in full once the buyer finalizes their design selections (typically 90 days after the sale agreement).
• For quick move-ins, your commission is paid at the close of escrow.

Let’s Make This Year Profitable!

On a personal note, I once had clients who passed on the chance to buy a new Camelot home—the best lot, the largest model in the subdivision. I still believe it was a missed opportunity. Prices have only gone up since then, and the land itself was worth every penny. Camelot Homes offered custom changes and options that other builders wouldn’t even consider. Their sales team was top-notch—never pushy, just helpful, letting my clients make an informed decision.

I’ve never been one to push clients into a deal, but looking back, I wish I had emphasized the long-term value a bit more. For these reasons, I wholeheartedly recommend Camelot Homes to any buyer or agent. For more details, check out Camelot Homes’ website.

Here’s to many successful sales ahead!
