Has anybody used the Jenman’s Real Estate Protection Guarantee for Home Sellers when selling a property?
Were the Real Estate Agents willing to sign it?Just something to keep in mind – there are major issues with the real estate industry in Australia, and Jenman does have some very valid points. Remember also that it’s a marketing strategy on his behalf to gain trust and build business for his company. You may be able to accomplish what you want without asking your agent to sign the Jenman form (eg no open houses and no advertising $ or something). I have seen the form before, but don’t remember EVERYTHING it covers.
The agencies I have dealt with that are Jenman approved don’t always follow his guidelines: I’ve been passed keys to houses with only a $20 deposit (they are supposed to ask for ID and fully qualify you BEFORE letting you in), and have also heard of Jenman agents selling homes for masses less then they are actually worth. It all comes down to the integrity of the people you are dealing with, and the needs of the seller. If you’re educated, and communicate your needs to your agent clearly, then you’ll be fine!
That’s my opinion anyway!
Cheers!
