BUYER REBATE PROGRAM
Get Money Back When You Purchase A Home!
If you are buying a home in Nassau, Suffolk or Queens and want to make some additional money when you buy a home, then sign up for our 1% Buyers Rebate Program. If you use me as your agent and call me first to show you homes, I will give you 1% of the sales price back when you close!
So if you buy a house for $500,000, I will give you a check for $5,000 at closing!
Buy a house for $600,000, I will give you a check for $6,000 at closing!
Buy a house for $700,000, I will give you a check for $7,000 at closing!
Buy a house for $1,000,000, I will give you a check for $10,000 at closing!
We have given thousands of dollars in cash rebates to buyers just like you for using us as their real estate agent. This isn’t fake or too good to be true. Usually the seller is the only one getting money at the closing table. Now you can get cash back as well!
If you are interested in the 1% Buyers Rebate Program, then give me a call (Matthew Hart) at (631) 961-4626 ext. 701.
If you already have a house that you are interested in, call me today so you can get some cash back!
*** (Commission to our office must be a minimum of $5,000. If total commission is less than $10,000, then you will get the difference less $5,000. For example: If the total commission is $8,000 then you will get $3,000. If total commission is less than 2%, you will get half of the total commission as long as the commission to our office meets the minimum of $5,000. Rebate can be given back at closing to be used towards closing costs, mansion tax or get a check in your hand.)

The IRS requires that any commissions, fees, prizes, and awards over $600 paid to an individual who is not an employee of the payee must be reported to the IRS.
This means that Listing Brokers who pay a commission to a Cooperating Broker, or a referral fee or Buyer Rebate over $600 must complete a Form 1099-MISC and give Copy B of the Form to the individual who received the money and file Copy A of the Form with the IRS.
The Listing Broker must comply with this filing requirement even when the Listing Broker does not pay the Cooperating Broker directly, such as when the cooperating commission is paid by the escrow agent. This is because the funds constituting the cooperative commission are drawn from the Listing Broker’s portion of the commission and so the payment is technically made by the Listing Broker.
This requirement only applies to payments made to individuals, and not when payments are made to corporations.
Listing Brokers should make it their practice to give a W-9 Form to every broker to whom he/she pays (or causes to be paid) a cooperative commission, whether the Cooperating Broker is an individual or corporation, and request that the Cooperating Broker fill it out and return it to the Listing Broker.
The W-9 Form will contain the information for the Listing Broker to fill out the 1099-MISC Form that must be filed when the Cooperating Broker is an individual. When the Cooperating Broker is a corporation, the Listing Broker should retain the W-9 Form for his/her records to demonstrate that he/she verified the corporate status of the Cooperating Broker.
