“Real estate transactions are too emotional and complex to be managed as online-only transactions,” said Maximillian Diez, Founder and CEO of CALPMG.  “While Google maps may improve the user experience and search engines will get faster, these technological advances will never replace the human factor that comes with working alongside a real estate professional who is passionate about their client’s needs. Personal attention PLUS Technology is what the next generation of real estate services must provide, and that’s what separates CALPMG from other online real estate services.”

 

 

Looking forward—to define what the future of real estate service should be—Diez and Pineda designed CALPMG to serve as the premier, one-stop source offering the most desirable real estate services, features and benefits: brokerage services to buy or sell property; discount pricing; rebates; online search and tour capabilities; property rental and leasing; and most importantly, personalized service with a licensed Realtor® or agent.

 

“While 89%* of all home buyers use the Internet in their search for a home, online searches, virtual tours and electronic signatures can’t replace the peace of mind that comes from working with a trusted source—an expert who can help navigate complexities associated with real estate transactions,” said Ernesto Pineda, CALPMG Managing Partner. “We learned from Redfin and ZipRealty, and from our work in traditional models. We know where those models fall short and we have corrected the issues.”

 

Making Real Estate Transactions Equitable for You, the Client!
One of the most popular transaction structures for clients is the “Transaction Rebate”—or CALPMG’s “Service First, Rebate Second” value model—which allows buyers to receive 52 percent of any commission that results from their transaction.  Extending that into new markets, CALPMG also offers a similar option to renters, who can receive 25 percent of any commission that results from their transaction.

 

“Some of the larger online real estate outlets, that started with and realized great success with the rebate model—have dropped this option in an effort to bolster profits,” said Diez.  “Information that used to be available only to real estate professionals is available online.  Today, clients are Internet savvy and much more involved in their property transactions with research, pricing and more.  They want to see their efforts rewarded and we agree.  At CALPMG, we see this as a core offering and intend for it to be a permanent part of our business model.”
