Realty Executives Phoenix Hosts 102nd 10K Home
Breakfast and Drawing
Realty Executives hosted its 102nd 10K breakfast and drawing on Wednesday, August 27, 2008 at Paradise Valley Country Club. The Realty Executives 10K Home Program was designed as a fun, creative way to help REALTORS® sell homes quicker, provide a new marketing effort for existing listings and attract new interest and buyers for those listings. This unique event marked the 102th drawing to occur here in Phoenix resulting in a grand total of $1,020,000 dollars given away under this program.
The Realty Executives 10K Home Program, designed to increase traffic to the property, provides a possible bonus incentive to the selling agent who sells any 10K properties. A home becomes a 10K property once the seller of the property agrees to contribute a $250 marketing fee, which funds both the marketing costs of the program and the drawing. Once a 10K property is closed and funded, the selling agent becomes eligible to earn an additional $10,000 commission. A 10K breakfast and drawing occurs each time 48 10K homes are closed and funded.
After little debate, the last two lucky contestants, left in the reverse-style drawing, Bonnie Evans, from HomeSmart and Cheryl Smith from Preferred Realty, each walked away with $5,000 cash, deciding to split the money in half, walking away winners. Other lucky winners included: Michael Sedivy form Prudential Arizona Properties who received $100 for his name being drawn first, John Hansen, Realty Executives, who won the Lucky Lister drawing for a $200 gift certificate to Sanctuary.
Attendees included each of the eligible Realtors or their representatives, staff members from Realty Executives International including Rich Rector, Chairman and John Foltz, President and the Realty Executives listing agents. Rector was master of ceremonies and presented the additional commission dollars to the winners.
