HIGHEST BUYERS COMMISSION REBATE AND LISTING DISCOUNT AVAILABLE
My focus is to help clients find the best possible real estate agent for their needs, even if that agent is not me. I work with clients to understand what they are looking for in an agent, find great matches from the thousands of available agents, then I negotiate the commission rate on the client's behalf to make sure they are not paying more than they should. I only take a 10% referral fee from the agent, which is far less than matching sites like Realtor.com, Homelight, UpNest, etc., which typically charge 35%. The lower referral fee means I can get clients the absolute best deal on the commission charged by their agent. The agent matching part of my business is called Cupid (Cupid.homes).
I also act as an agent myself, focusing most on experienced buyers who know what they want, plan to do much of the work themselves, and don't want to overpay for services they don't need. My buyer's commission rebates and listing commission discounts are far better than you'll find on sites like Redfin, Prevu, Clever, etc. Based on the actual services you will require, we will work together on a deal that I guarantee you will find extremely competitive, and you won't compromise on quality - you'll just be paying for and receiving just what you need.

As a first time home buyer, Jeff was everything I could have asked for in an agent. He helped us through the whole process, from where to target within Boston, to negotiating for a good deal, and making sure the closing went smoothly. I can't recommend him enough.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I believe real estate commission costs should match the value of the services received. In some cases that may line up with the standard 5-6% total / 2-3% per transaction side, but in many cases it doesn't, especially for clients who can now do most of the work themselves. The most experienced, DIY-type clients can expect discounts or rebates of about two-thirds of the standard commission, often more. Clients who expect more of a hands-on approach can still expect discounts or rebates of about one-third.
Please note that this can vary based on the home value, and the starting point for commissions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Step 1 is listen. Step 2-5 are also listen. I aim to fully understand the client's goals before I make any assumptions about how I can help. From there, I will explain my business model, how it differs from most agents and from other agent matching services, and how I believe I can improve their home buying and selling experience. That varies based on what a client is looking for, but generally the next step is for me to take the input of the client's priorities and find some preliminary matches for the client to consider. Once we have settled on a short list and a preliminary view of the agents' proposed commission rates, I will facilitate interviews and then I will perform final commission rate negotiations, creating competition among the finalist agents to ensure the client receives the best possible deal. At that point, the chosen agent will take the lead, and I will periodically check-in to get feedback on the effectiveness of the match so I can continuously improve.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Duke University BSE (magna cum laude, with Distinction), Harvard Business School MBA
Work experience includes over a decade working with Bain & Company, a premier management consulting firm, and about three years as an e-commerce executive at Wayfair.
I have extensive experience in negotiation strategy and execution, investment analysis, and delivering superior client results.
