Rather than take the position offered by many of devising arguments for protecting any standard commission schedule, Mollie wisely suggests offering alternatives. It all depends on who accepts the risk in any transaction. <a href="http://www.myreconsultants.com/KenDeshaies/Index.html">Visit ACRE®s Ken &amp; Mary Deshaies</a></p>]]></description>

It is by far the most professional approach to buying and selling real estate available today, and into the future. Gone are the days when agents dealt in privileged and protected real estate information. Most of that information is now available to consumers on a grand scale, thanks to the Internet. <a href="http://www.kleinknecht.net/consulting_page.htm">Visit ACRE® Vince Kleinknecht</a> </p><div><br /></div>]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[<p>"ACRE® is just what I have been looking for! In my previous career I owned a computer consulting business that provided technology services to attorneys, CPAs, architects/engineers and other business organizations. My clients expected to pay for our services based on a fee that measured what we did for them in the same way they billed their clients. We gave them options but would never have considered charging a percentage of the value of the project if they completed the project! The real estate industry has it all backwards and I am glad to find others that agree." <br /></p>]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[<p>Hey Mol - just visited <a href="http://www.thehomeconsultants.com/">your team's site </a>and we were really impressed with your section about consulting. I read through and then followed the link to your <a href="http://www.myreconsultants.com/">other consulting site</a>. What a smart and timely way to do business! We were so interested that we just ordered your book. If we didn't know you already and were shopping agents, we would definitely choose your team based on the consulting alone.</p>]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[<p>Deb, thanks so much for saving me thousands of dollars!&nbsp; Recently, I obtained “comps” from a national website and also from other agents. All I received was a list of properties with sales prices. Even though it was better than nothing, it didn’t help me. As a new investor, I need as much info as possible to avoid making costly mistakes. Then I contacted you about your consulting services, I found that you could give me what I needed. You sure delivered!</p>]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[<p>Mollie, I LOVE the new section on your homepage about consulting. Even though I'm a longtime client and I knew you did some "different" things, I never really understood how consulting worked. Since it was at the top of your page, that section really caught my eye and it was great that you had a link to <a href="http://www.myreconsultants.com/">your other site</a> that explained how consulting worked. I agree with you - this is the future of real estate and it certainly makes your team stand out.</p>
