Nov 2023

The sisters split the increase in value on the house with the homeowner, but do they also charge the 5-6% real estate fee? I think that's a rip off.

Someone I met here in Tacoma is a RE agent who uses his own money to help (mostly older) clients refurbish their homes, like the sisters do, but he only takes his investment back plus the increased real estate commission. The homeowner gets to keep the extra money generated by the sale. It seems like a rip off to me that Lindsay and Leslie take HALF of the increase. Plus, how do they determine the base price?
