RealtyBaron Launches New Website for Homeowners and REALTORS®

RealtyBaron, an Internet based services marketplace, helps homeowners find quality representation at the right price when selling their house and property. REALTORS® can use Realty Baron as an inexpensive resource for generating new customer leads with little effort.

Austin, TX (PRWEB) March 21, 2004 -- Membership in the National Association of REALTORS® has surged 27% in the past three years to 977,000. As the housing market continues to cool, those numbers should translate into savings on sales commissions for homeowners. But who has time to search for competent representation at the best price? Realty Baron provides a platform that quantifies the most common search techniques making the process of choosing a REALTORS® fast and effortless.

Homeowners typically hire realtors based on personal testimonies and the asking sales commission. Testimonials on Realty Baron are reflected in a participating REALTOR®'s AgentRank™. AgentRank™ is a proprietary formula created by Realty Baron that assigns a value to a REALTOR® based on their ability to deliver results for clients. Realty Baron's eBay-style format determines the most competitive bid from REALTORS®. Homeowners are protected from unacceptable bids by specifying a reserve commission. As a homeowner receives more bids from REALTORS® wanting to represent them, the sales commission a homeowner pays decreases. To ensure a minimum level of service quality, homeowners can limit bidding to REALTORS® who maintain a minimum AgentRank™.

Realty Baron has launched its website focusing on the greater Austin area before promoting the service nationwide. Realty Baron is a free service for both homeowners and realtors.
