As a proud American and Colorado Springs Resident I have a tremendous admiration and respect for our Military. I appreciate and respect every sacrifice your entire family makes every day during and after your service. I value your business and treat you with the highest respect possible. I understand you have choices when deciding on who will help you find your next home. Your choice should not be left to chance. You should be given the opportunity to choose a professional who is capable of handling your investment, and not somebody who is assigned to you. I founded Inside Edge Real Estate on the principal of exceptional Client Service that is second to none. As your Full Service Real Estate Company of choice I understand how special you are to us. To show you and your family my appreciation for your service, I offer you our "Military Cash-Back Program"* that exceeds the industry standard and is available to all currently Active or Past Military Personnel. Compare our Military Rewards Program to USAA's "Movers Advantage Program", and you will see no comparison.

Q: Why can Inside Edge Real Estate pay you 25% more Money than USAA?
A: Inside Edge’s overhead cost is much lower than the larger companies.
Q: Does your relocation department “assign” us a Realtor?
A: No, I will be your dedicated Realtor from beginning to beyond the end.
Q: How do I know you are qualified to assist us?
A: Prior to owning my own company, I had a 5-Star rating by USAA’s Relocation Company.
Q: How are we assured you will do what you say you will?
A: Our Buyer’s Agency Agreement can be terminated by you at any time.
Q: Do you have access to the same homes available to USAA
A: Every Realtor in good standing has access to the same local Multiple Listing Service (MLS)
Q: How do I know you will help me find the right home?
A: I utilize a state-of-the-art system to assist me in making sure we only view homes that meet your criteria.
Q: How do I know you will do a better job than the agent USAA assigns us?
A: USAA works with large companies that will distribute your information to a few agents in their office who have no vested interest in ensuring you are 100% satisfied. As in any industry, are you more likely to receive better service from an “Employee” of a large company or the “Owner” of a smaller one?
Q: How can I sign any paperwork from out of state?
A: I utilize e-Contracts which allow you to sign all the real estate documents from anywhere you have internet access.
Did you know that USAA charges the Realtor who attempts to “assist” you 35% of her commission? This means that if you buy a house for $200,000, and the seller pays your Realtor a 3% commission, then USAA will take $2,100 of the Agent’s earned commission of $6,000. USAA will then give you back $950! Where does the rest of the money go? USAA’s pockets! How much does your USAA assigned Realtor really get? Let’s take the same example above. If the Agent who “assisted” you receives $6,000 and gives USAA $2,100, this leaves her with $3,900. But, we are not done, they are probably on a 30% split which means they have to give their Broker (remember, I’m my own Broker) an additional $1,170. This means the Realtor who “assisted” you receives $2,730. However, we are still NOT done here. The Realtor now has to give “Uncle Sam” his share which is around another 30%. What is the final NET commission for the agent who USAA said is “pre-screened, and qualified” to assist you? A whopping $1,911!
Let’s recap. If USAA’s assigned Realtor receives $1,911 of the $6,000 she earned how motivated is she really to assist you? I’d say, not much! This means that the most experienced Realtor in that office- the one you really want assisting you, will not be the one helping you, but instead it will be a newer, inexperienced Realtor looking for any “business” that comes their way.
This process is much worse if you are Selling a house, because there are more costs associated with the marketing and sale of a house. In the scenario above, how much money would the Realtor have of the $1,911 to invest in the marketing of your house? Not much! The interesting part in the “Selling” scenario is YOU paid the commission to your Listing Agent. This means that USAA was “kind” enough to give you back $950 of the $2,100 you gave them to “assign” YOU their "best, most experienced, and most qualified” Realtor!
As you can see, it makes much more sense to choose the Inside Edge Cash-Back Reward Program over USAA’s Mover’s Advantage Program. With USAA’s Mover’s Advantage Program, YOU are the one being taken “advantaged” of!
* "Cash Back" will be in form of a Realtor Rebate at Closing in accordance to local and federal regulations. Must Advise Agent that you found the Appreciation Program on this Website at first contact with agent to qualify for program. Cannot be combined with commission reduction offers or with "Lease Buyout Program." Some loan programs and government regulations may limit the amount of the rebate.
