"When
I used
WGBH
Realty
Perks
to
buy
my
home
in
Somerville,
I got
money
back,
a great
agent
that
I chose,
and
helped
WGBH...
It
was
a no
brainer.
Everyone
should
do
this."

"It
would
be
crazy
not
to
take
advantage
of
this
wonderful
program – it's
free
money
and
especially
meaningful
when
you
can
give
back
to
a non-profit
you
really
believe
in."

Buys & Sells
Through
Realty
Perks
A
young
couple,
who
are
both
attorneys
with
small
children,
heard
about
the
program
via
the
WBZ
radio
Realty
Perks
ad
spot.
They
love
the
idea
of
not
only
getting
a
rebate,
but
being
able
to
support
the
programming
they
love
on
WGBH,
all
at
not
cost
to
them.
They
had
never
been
WGBH
members
in
the
past,
but
because
of
their
generous
contribution,
will
become
members
as
a
result.

Brother
of
WGBH
Employee
Says “Great
Idea!”
When
his
sister,
who
is
WGBH
employee,
told
him
about
Realty
Perks,
he
thought, “this
really is too good to be true”. After looking into how the program works,
he realized that as a first-time homebuyer, he would greatly benefit from being
matched with a qualified agent, be able to use his rebate to decorate his new
condo, AND make a generous contribution to WGBH all at the same time, it was “a
deal too good to pass up”.

Mashpee
WGBH
Member
Wants
to “Give
Back”
This
woman
first
found
out
about
the
program
in
a
newsletter
which
WGBH
sent
out to their Cape and Islands members and is thrilled to be able to take advantage
of the ability of selling her home and making a generous donation to support
her favorite station – a greater amount than she has been able to afford
in the past. She can’t believe she will be saving so much on real estate
commissions and because of signing up as a Realty Perks participant, she will
be not only be able to share her rebate with WGBH, but will automatically become
a “Leadership Circle” member for the first time ever.
