Leading Assist-2-Sell Office Relocates to Knoxville, Tenn.; Husband and Wife Team Help Homeowners Save Money with Unique Full-Service Real Estate Brokerage

Knoxville, TN, March 03, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Don and Kim Rose know a good thing when they see it. For nearly three years, this husband and wife team ran a successful Assist-2-Sell office in the Toledo, Ohio area. Last year, Don and Kim sold their franchise and relocated to east Tennessee. They didn’t abandon the Assist-2-Sell concept, though. Now that they’re settled in, Don and Kim have opened a new Assist-2-Sell office in Farragut, Tenn., to serve home sellers and homebuyers in the greater Knoxville area.

So what is it about Assist-2-Sell that continues to draw the Roses?

“Don and I worked for a 'traditionally-priced' real estate company but we grew tired of justifying our seven percent commission,” says Kim, who also serves as managing broker for the new office. “Assist-2-Sell allows us to offer the same professional services we have always offered but for a lot less money. The only difference between now and then is the savings.”

Assist-2-Sell is a full-service discount real estate company that was started in 1987 in Reno, Nev. Today, there are more than 550 franchise offices throughout the United States and Canada. Assist-2-Sell’s “Full-Service with $avings!”® program has been refined over the last 20 years and sets it apart from other real estate companies.

As a full-service real estate brokerage, Assist-2-Sell’s experienced brokers and agents handle everything throughout the entire process of selling a home. That includes pricing the home; advertising and marketing online and offline; showing the home to prospective buyers; working with other local brokers and agents; and managing all of the paperwork and the closing.

Explains Don, “The only difference between Assist-2-Sell and ‘traditional’ real estate companies is our compensation structure. We charge a low, flat fee instead of a commission that is a percentage of a home’s sale price. That can add up to significant savings!”

There are no upfront or hidden charges. Assist-2-Sell isn’t paid until the home is sold; after closing. The Roses charge $2,995 for homes up to $200,000, with moderate increases for homes that list for more.*

Assist-2-Sell isn’t a new concept for many in the Knoxville area but there are some major misperceptions Don and Kim hope to quickly clear up.

“A lot of people think Assist-2-Sell discounts its fees by cutting out services. There are some ‘discounters’ that force home sellers to do most of the work but we aren’t one of them,” assures Kim. “We’re really proud of the fact that we enable homeowners to hold onto more of their home’s equity without forcing them to sacrifice any of the service and support they need.”

Assist-2-Sell also provides homebuyers with a full range of services, including access to the Company’s exclusive listings databases.

“It’s a great time to buy a home, particularly in Knoxville. Business is booming throughout East Tennessee, interest rates are at all time low, and would-be homeowners are sure to benefit from the new economic stimulus package,” says Don. “Fortunately, the crisis in the subprime mortgage market hasn’t affected Knoxville the way it has other parts of the country, so our real estate market continues to be strong.”
