I hadn’t either… until it showed up on my seller’s title days before closing. 😳In this video, I’m breaking down what happened when a hidden agreement with MV Realty surfaced right before closing — and how it nearly derailed the entire transaction.This company marketed itself as a “Homeowner Benefit Program,” offering homeowners a small upfront payment (sometimes under $1,000) in exchange for signing a 40-year exclusive listing agreement — requiring them to pay a 3% commission when they sell… whether MV Realty lists the home or not.Yes. 40 years.As a Georgia Associate Broker, I’ve now seen multiple situations where sellers forgot about documents they signed years ago — only to have it cost them thousands at closing.⚖️ If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. 📑 Read before you sign. 🔎 Google companies before doing business with them.Protect your investment.
