Our Broker Referral Program is a…
Win‑Win Option for You and Your Client!
For a property where the costly, hard‑to‑sell realities are becoming apparent, our Broker Referral Program gives you a win for your client and a win in securing your compensation. Refer your client, and we’ll pay your full sales commission upon completion of the donated‑property process.
Instead of experiencing the frustration and costs of a lingering listing, repeated price reductions, or buyer hesitation over repair needs and encumbrances, our Broker Referral Program allows you to guide your seller toward an option that brings closure to a costly situation while still earning your full, duly‑earned commission.
Here’s how our Broker Referral Program helps your client:
Offers a potential tax deduction: Because the property is donated to a qualifying 501(c)(3) organization, the seller may be eligible for a charitable tax deduction based on the property’s appraised value. Donating can help offset financial losses from a stalled listing, reduced pricing, making needed repairs or resolving encumbrances. (Sellers should consult their tax professional for guidance.)
Avoids ongoing carrying costs: Taxes, utilities, insurance, and maintenance add up. Donation helps the seller stop the financial drain sooner.
Eliminates the pressure of repairs or upgrades: Donation removes the burden of fix‑up costs, inspection issues, and lender requirements, which often reduces buyers interest and from moving forward.
Here’s how our Broker Referral Program helps you:
There is no processing cost to you or your client: The donation process is performed by Illinois Land Investment team of volunteers. By law, your client is required to hire and pay for an independent appraiser.
Your full commission is protected: You receive the entire commission listed on the sales contract, with no reductions, no adjustments, and no surprises. Your work and your client relationship remain fully respected.
You gain a dependable option for hard‑to‑sell properties: Repair‑needed homes, financing‑challenged properties, and listings with limited buyer interest often stall on the open market. The donated‑property pathway gives you a viable solution to present when traditional efforts are no longer producing results.
You maintain your client relationship: Instead of losing the listing or watching it expire, you can offer your seller a structured, dignified alternative that keeps you involved and positioned as a trusted advisor.
You save time and money: No more repeated showings, price reductions, or weeks of waiting for offers that never materialize. The referral pathway provides a clear, predictable process that respects your time.
You expand your professional toolkit: Having a donated‑property option allows you to serve a wider range of sellers — including those facing repair burdens, financial strain, or time‑sensitive situations — without compromising your standards or your compensation.
Here’s who our Broker Referral Program donates too:
Through our Broker Referral Program donated‑property pathway, we have qualified two outstanding 501(c)(3) organizations, the United Relief Foundation and National Women Veterans United, that use donated real estate to support veterans by providing housing assistance, essential services, and community‑based programs that make a meaningful difference in their lives.
Here’s how to have your questions answered and to get started:
We evaluate each property individually and consider all relevant factors before acceptance. In general, we aim to accept residential or commercial property in any condition, even those with a net positive value and encumbrances, and can complete the donation process within 14 days.
