Realtor Give-Back Program
Erin Chan-Adams, mother of Quade (Wood Duck), has teamed up with Duck's Nest to start the Realtor Give-Back Program. Here's how it works:
Know of anyone buying or selling their home, investment property, or other real property? Maybe you, your friend, your neighbor? Then follow these two easy steps:
- Refer Erin to your contact by giving them her name, number or email (or, better yet, get their approval to share their information with Erin directly and she will reach-out to them personally!),
- Have your referral mention they were referred by a Duck's Nest parent.
If you or your referral uses Erin’s services to buy or sell real property, she donates 5% of her personal net commission back to Duck's Nest! Erin’s contact info is found below:
