FAQ’s About flexible fees
If
you own a business you already know to expect the unexpected
and that every new day is a new challenge.
Well, it’s a new day and
SUNBELT
is up to the challenge of serving business owners in new and
better ways. And
here’s the unexpected – we’re now offering you our
highly recommended service at the most competitive rates - ever!
Q.
What’s new?
Our
exclusive Flexible Fees Program gives you new options
regarding the fees for our services.
You decide how much extra cash you want to put in your
pocket at closing.
Q.
How does the program work?
Our
standard fees are fair and based on our cost of providing, top
quality service with no payment until closing.
Our Flexible Fees Program offers you two options to
discount our standard fee.
By choosing to take advantage of one of these options
you will enjoy big, cash savings at the closing table.
Q.
What’s option #1?
By
simply providing answers to a short, easy interview about your
business, you will qualify, in most cases, for a discount
based on attributes of your business that will make the sale
easier. Based on
the interview our proprietary computer program will calculate
your available discount, subject to verification of the
information you provided in the interview.
Q.
How a big a discount could be available?
Discounts
up to 40% are available through Option #1.
The more saleable your business is the bigger the
discount.
Q.
To take advantage of my discount, what do I do?
To
take advantage of your available discount, you simply help us
to keep our costs down by prepaying our setup costs associated
with your project. Our
lower cost is passed on to you as big savings at closing time.
Typically for each dollar you prepay, you’ll save $10
or more in service fees!
Q.
How much is the prepay?
For
a typical business prepay would be about $300 to $400.
Larger, more complex businesses would be somewhat more.
Q.
What if I don’t choose to prepay?
No
problem. As
always, you get our first quality service and simply pay our
standard fee at the close of your sale.
Q.
What’s my reward?
For
that same typical business, your saving – extra money in
your pocket at closing – would probably be $3000 to $5000.
Typically for each dollar you prepay, you’ll save $10 or
more in service fees!
Q.
What’s the catch?
None.
If your business takes longer to sell or your listing
expires, you only prepay once.
So, we’ll simply extend your listing and keep working
until your business sells and at the same money-saving
discount!
Q.
What if I cancel?
Since
prepaid fees are to cover costs for work that we do on your
behalf, prepaid fees are not refundable.
Q.
How can I save even more?
SUNBELT
, through its professional association with Gulf Coast
Financial offers professional Business Valuations.
Investing in this powerful tool will speed up your
sale, get you higher offers, and we’ll even reimburse you at
closing with $1.50 for every $1 you invest.
Q.
What’s option #2?
Want
even more savings? Option
#2 let’s you pick you own rate – even as low as 1.5%!
Somewhat like options available from many mortgage
lenders, you can buy down your service fee rate by making a
rate buy-down payment. Buy
down payments are fully applied to your total service fee .and
reduce the fee due at closing.
They’re fully refundable if your listing is canceled
during the first 90 days.
Thereafter, they are applied to services rendered and
are not refundable.
