Game Changer Program

How would you like to give your buyer or seller an Auxiliary Membership in the REALTOR® organization?

What if that Membership included a basket from you with gift cards and discounts worth $250?

What if SAR set up informative pages on our website that your customers and clients could reach by linking through your website?

And what if SAR sent quarterly follow ups to your customers and clients with pertinent information and useful coupons as though they were coming from you?

In response to a challenge by the National Association of REALTORS® for local associations to come up with Game Changing Ideas, SAR submitted plans for an Auxiliary Membership and was one of 14 selected from over 200 applicants.

That selection gives us a grant and the services of a national consultant to develop and implement the Idea by May when NAR meets again and will expect a report on the Auxiliary Membership.

Benefits to You
By enrolling your consumer upon their signing of a listing agreement or buyer agency agreement, you will be given the $250 gift basket and an Auxiliary Membership card to present to them. Through your site, they will gain Auxiliary Member only access to sacrealtor.org where we will post relevant housing statistics, market conditions, tips for buying or selling their home, the steps they can expect to go through with you in the transaction, news of legislation affecting their private property rights and a look at Sacramento, its schools and amenities.
