RealtyBid.com Offers Holiday Treat to Agents

Market Wire, December, 2009

Online home auction company RealtyBid.com is offering a holiday
treat to real estate agents across the country. Throughout the month of
December, RealtyBid.com has discounted its standard listing fee of $150 to
$25 for real estate agents looking to market one or more of their property
listings through a RealtyBid.com online auction in order to accelerate the
property’s sale.

Additionally, the online real estate auction company has discounted its
standard sales fee (Buyer Fee) from 1 percent to a flat fee of $500,
further enticing potential buyers to bid on listed properties.

In order to take advantage of this holiday offer, real estate agents should
use the special promotional code YE2009 when uploading a property to the
RealtyBid.com website.

RealtyBid.com Executive Vice President Mike Keracher said real estate
professionals around the country are beginning to understand the value of
auction marketing through RealtyBid.com. “As the acceptance of real estate auctions has continued to
grow and the use of the Internet has become integral to our lives, more and
more real estate professionals have added Internet auction marketing to
their arsenal of tools.”

Keracher listed five ways auction marketing through RealtyBid.com can help
accelerate the sale of a slow moving listing for an agent.

Auction marketing through RealtyBid.com:

   1. Keeps control in the hands of the agent and seller. The agent and

      client decide when the auction will take place, how long it will

      be, and what the terms of the sale will be. And, the RealtyBid.com

      transaction fee is paid by the buyer, not the seller or agent.
   2. Focuses attention on the listed property and can help differentiate

      a property from others in the area.
   3. Forces potential buyers off the fence; it pushes them toward making

      a decision within the auction timeframe.
