SEATTLE, WA--(Marketwire - July 26, 2009) - "Why not let your member's or customer's selling or buying experience be something they'll remember 'you' for instead of the one size fits all franchise brokerages, especially if you can save them money? After all, isn't that the draw of a credit union or community bank: savings and relationship-based service?" asks RT Brokerage Services CEO Louis Herrera. "We think so, that's why we responded with a preferred rates affiliate program."

Credit union members and community bank customers share very similar profiles with online real estate consumers. They want access to consolidated listing information; full-service assistance in understanding that information; professional representation to efficiently and successfully close their real estate transaction; and an option, if they choose, to calculate their in-kind contributions in the transaction into some form of financial savings.

"Our affiliate program meets these needs, and eliminates the necessity for a credit union or community bank to have a wholly owned subsidiary or joint venture to offer their members and customers a direct channel for cost-saving real estate brokerage services," says Mr. Herrera. "All they have to do is download our affiliate agreement from our website, select the co-marketing benefits that align with their lending priorities, and soon they will be on their way to passing on real savings to their members and customers through our time-accountable REAL estate TRANSACTIONS® model. It's that easy."

"The sale of real estate should always leave consumers feeling reassured about the service and value their lender and agent brought to the transaction. Now consumer-choice real estate agents™ can unequivocally point to the value they bring to a transaction through hourly rates. Consumer-choice real estate gives traditional full-service brokerages and agents a complementary model to accommodate a profitable segment of real estate consumers, and soon, it will put an elite class of real estate professionals on par with other professions like accounting, engineering, and law," concludes CEO Louis Herrera. "Everyone wins in consumer-choice."
