Craig Blackmon is a Seattle attorney whose practice is focused on residential real estate. With his partner Marc Holmes, Craig owns and operates WaLaw Realty LLC, a real estate brokerage that provides the services of a real estate agent (such as MLS listings for sellers and access to listed properties for buyers) plus the professional legal representation of an attorney – all for a low flat fee.
The Department of Justice maintains an interesting web site regarding broker commissions and rebates to consumers. As noted by the DOJ:
New business models are emerging that allow consumers to save thousands of dollars when they buy or sell a home. Where these practices are allowed, some buyers’ brokers are offering refunds on commissions, and some sellers’ brokers are charging only for services actually used.
WaLaw Realty is one of the “new business models” that not only allows consumers to save thousands of dollars directly, but also puts downward pressure on the fees charged by other brokers. WaLaw Realty — helping clients save money, and changing the world for the better in the process. What’s not to love?
