The real estate market has weathered quite a storm over the past few years. Throughout the late 90's and first half of the 2000's the real estate market flew high on the promise of easy money from lenders and a frenzy created by low inventory. It seemed to sell a home all you had to do was put a sign in the yard and wait several days to a week for several competing offers to roll in. The mortgage crisis of 2006 changed everything. Homeowners began to default on the loans that were so easily acquired, inventory levels began to climb and home values began to drop. Out went the advantage of the seller and in roared the buyers market.
When markets change, the companies that survive are the ones that adapt to their surroundings and work with the changing market as opposed to fighting to keep things the way they were. Many have said that Einstein's definition of insanity was continuing to do the same things over and over but expecting a different result. Many real estate companies and agents have struggled with trying to adapt to the changes in the market place. Those who could not adapt are still struggling or have closed their doors.
Solid Source Realty began in 2003 as a new way for real estate agents to conduct business in the state of Georgia. Solid Source wanted to find way to help real estate agents do more business and remain competitive in the marketplace by being able to keep more of their hard earned commissions. Traditional brokerage models called for splits on average of 20 to 50 percent of sales commission to be paid to the broker for each sale. What followed was to be a revolution in the way agents interacted with their broker, their office... and their clients.
After introducing its new way of doing business, Solid Source was featured on CNN for creating the first paperless real estate office software. Not only did this software house data electronically but it created an interface for the agent to manage clients and business more efficiently. This led to the creation of unheard of low monthly fees and a flat rate transaction fee for the agent. No more costly splits to the broker and high office fees.
Solid Source now has over 2800 agents in its family of companies. Their transaction fees have remained the same since opening in 2003 and they are proud to serve their agents and customers as a debt free company while offering their agents and customers an impressive list of Hi-tech services to keep everyone involved placed firmly on the cutting edge of the real estate market.
