About
Help-U-Sell
Help-U-Sell Puget
Sound is Everett, WA and Snohomish County’s premier provider of professional
licensed real estate services, empowering consumers with access to information
and choice, while offering a set-fee alternative to paying the traditional
broker commission. Help-U-Sell Real Estate is the largest
fee-for-service real estate franchise with nearly 200 offices in 46 states
and 12 offices in South
Africa. As a result of the company’s
strong leadership and forward-thinking standards of saving the consumer money,
Help-U-Sell has grown over 900% since 1999 and continues to attract new
affiliates at record numbers.
 Created
30 years ago, the Help-U-Sell model was the pioneer for providing an alternative
to the dated 6% commission structure, something that had virtually gone
uncontested for years in a market overrun by a monopoly of
traditional brokerage firms. What distinguishes Help-U-Sell from the competition
is that the company never insists on fees based on a percentage of the sales
price, allowing consumers to save thousands of dollars compared to what they
would have spent on a traditional broker’s fee. Help-U-Sell forged a
revolution in the real estate industry by proactively challenging the 6%
commission structure.
Help-U-Sell Puget
Sound is a full-service set-fee organization operating in Everett and Snohomish County and the company’s licensed
professionals manage the entire home sale process from start to finish,
including handling all negotiations, providing referrals, showing the seller’s
home and providing expert advice and representation. Help-U-Sell’s model breaks
down the services that a traditional broker provides, such as advertising costs,
staging a house for sale and holding open houses, in turn allowing consumers to
save an average 3-4% compared to what they would have spent on the traditional
6% broker fee. With no extraneous fees or inflated commissions, consumers
are given full transparency knowing from the initial stages of the transaction
what they will be left with after the sale.
Being the first
company to recognize the consumer’s desire to save more money, as well as their
greater participation in the buying and selling process, Help-U-Sell’s model, a
modern alternative in the cluttered residential real estate market, has
essentially revitalized the future of the industry.
The strength of the
Help-U-Sell’s leadership has allowed the company to expand at an explosive rate,
as most of Help-U-Sell’s senior management team have held top positions at major
traditional real estate companies and have broad real estate backgrounds.
Help-U-Sell brokers and agents are professionals, who are members of the
National Association of Realtors and committed to following the organization’s
time tested Code of Ethics. Together, Help-U-Sell’s agents, brokers and
franchise owners share a unified brand vision: valuing innovation, teamwork and
integrity.
Help-U-Sell ranked #15
on Entrepreneur Magazine’s Top 100 Fastest Growing Companies for 2005, making
the company the fastest growing real estate franchise in America.
