Bucking tradition: 3 business models
By Kathy Bevan
One Percent Realty
One Percent Realty in B.C. is now one of the āveteransā of Canadaās non-traditional brokerages. With a network of 140 salespeople serving most of B.C., the firmās business model has changed very little since it first started up in 1998 in Vancouver. The companyās share of commission is still its namesake one per cent, but as of January 1, the minimum charge increased to $6,000 from its original $5,000. The firm also charges $900 per listing for MLS fees, title searches and a set amount of advertising; if the vendor wants more ads, thereās an additional fee.
āI come from a project marketing background where the developer paid all your costs, so thatās where the business model came from,ā says company founder and broker/owner, Ian Bailey. āIād show them a book and say, āHereās what an ad in the Real Estate Weekly costs, hereās what a virtual tour costs, what do you want to do?āā
Bailey points to the addition of Schedule A to B.C. listing agreements, about four years ago, as a big plus for his business model. āSchedule A basically says what youāre going to do ā are you going to hold open houses, have a lockbox, advertise, whatās the deal? Itās been perfect for us, because prior to Schedule A, other Realtors could say, āYou donāt get the level of service that we offerā,ā says Bailey. āIt puts everything on the table and thatās what weāre all about. Realtors donāt really like discussing what the commission is, but we do. We talk about everything, what weāre going to do, what youāre going to get for that.ā
Bailey says One Percent had about 2,000 sales last year ā a recovery year for the B.C. market ā and notes that his business model does particularly well working with consumers in small towns. āThese are people who, if weāre saving them $10,000, know what that looks like and how long it takes them to get that $10,000.ā
