Flat Fee Homes

Flat Fee Homes was founded on the premise of fairness and equity for all stakeholders in the real estate industry. With fourteen years of intimate, high-level experience of the industry its founder, Jan S De Villiers, systematically came to believe that sellers of properties in South Africa are simply being over-charged. Over the last couple of years, he started working towards a service offering that incorporates these beliefs for the benefit of the client. Current commission structures of Real Estate Agencies inflate the selling price of a home. It tends to spill over to the buyer but more importantly to the seller, who is emotionally invested and would like to sell his property as effortlessly as possible and at the best possible price! The advancement and provisioning of the internet service-offering is making it increasingly possible for agents performing real estate transactions, to effect this task faster and more cost-effective. This development makes it possible for the industry to significantly reduce selling commissions, without compromising the levels of service offering to its clients. In fact, we believe it is a gross misconception that a significantly reduced sales commission, should in any way negatively impact the levels of service the seller expects from the industry. The advancement of the broader information technology service today allows both for vastly superior ways of presenting the owner’s property as well as improved communication & information flow, from a real estate agent to a client. This allows for greater transparency throughout the real estate transaction process. Flat Fee Homes will produce a better service and better results than other contemporary real estate companies available to the seller, by utilizing prevailing marketing and communications technology.
