Every agent is out here fighting for more listings, but what if the key to dominating your market isn’t just about pricing, marketing, or staging, but about money that’s already sitting on the table?

What most agents overlook is that some listings come with built-in financial power: I’m talking about reverse down payment assistance. 

This is money that can be layered to cover buyer agent compensation without your seller having to give up a dime. In today’s market, where buyers are hesitant and sellers want to net top dollar, this strategy is an absolute game-changer.

In this episode, I’m breaking down how I use reverse down payment assistance and program stacking to attract buyers, help sellers net more, and give agents a value proposition no one else is talking about.
