Notes

  • Non-MLS scams are very prevalent — be aware of homes in foreclosure, bank-owned offered for rent, identity theft, and up-front cash deposits.
  • All services are provided by a licensed Realtor.
  • Area tours are set up for one area per week (examples include South Bay or Mid-Peninsula, East Bay, Santa Cruz, or another area as needed). A second area can be covered in another week.
  • Service period is 4 weeks. A week starts when the Oz Realty agent is asked to do any work. Weeks do not need to be consecutive if the client pays 50% up front.
  • The fee covers all occupants of the household.
  • Agent does one tour per week. Clients can view properties on their own. If the client finds a property they like that the agent has not already seen, the agent will go see it.
  • Client’s own list of places can be included.
  • Agent will help with area orientation as needed (school enrollment, DMV, etc.).


Payment

Payment terms are negotiable, but normally 50% up front and 50% upon completion. If any commissions are offered by the landlord or property manager, they will be given back to the client or employer.
If this is part of a relocation package, the employer pays. Otherwise the tenant pays.
