Two choices with clearly separated roles

Choose a direct REI purchase review—or an independent MLS listing.

REI Property Advisors LLC evaluates properties only as a potential principal buyer for its own investment account. Owners who prefer broad market exposure can contract directly with ListingSpark, a separate licensed real-estate brokerage.

Understand the paths before choosing

Direct investor purchase or retail-market exposure.

The owner chooses the path after reviewing the property facts, goals, timing, condition, title, provider costs, and information supplied by the appropriate licensed or professional provider.

PATH 01

Direct principal purchase review

REI evaluates the property for a possible purchase for its own investment account. REI does not list the property or charge the owner a brokerage commission.

  • No obligation to accept an REI offer
  • Written buyer role, price, timing, and conditions
  • Any permitted assignment right disclosed in writing

PATH 02

Independent MLS listing through ListingSpark

The owner creates and controls a separate ListingSpark account, contracts directly with ListingSpark, and pays ListingSpark under its current agreement.

  • Licensed brokerage and MLS services from ListingSpark
  • ListingSpark-issued documents and support
  • The owner—not REI—controls the listing decision
Review ListingSpark for investors →

A clean handoff protects every role

Each path keeps its own records and agreements.

An REI inquiry is used only to evaluate a possible principal purchase. If the owner chooses an MLS listing, the owner moves to a separate ListingSpark account and works directly with that licensed brokerage.

The owner keeps control

REI does not request the owner’s ListingSpark password, sign ListingSpark documents for the owner, negotiate the listing, or maintain the owner’s brokerage file. Sensitive records should be delivered only through the secure process identified by the responsible provider.

No REI listing or referral charge

The introduction is a customer convenience.

REI does not add a percentage, referral fee, brokerage commission, or closing-statement charge for directing an owner to ListingSpark or Spark Title.

Independent choice: The owner may use ListingSpark, another licensed broker, sell directly to REI, or take no action. Spark Title is optional, and other qualified title providers are available.

Simple customer workflow

One decision at a time—with no blurred representation.

01

Choose what to explore

Request an REI principal purchase review or independently visit ListingSpark for an MLS listing.

02

Use the correct account

REI handles only its purchase inquiry. The owner controls all ListingSpark credentials and brokerage documents.

03

Review before signing

The responsible buyer, broker, title company, or attorney issues and explains its own documents.

04

Select title services

The contract parties choose Spark Title or another qualified title-and-escrow provider.

Texas seller document center

Get each document from the party responsible for it.

REI issues documents only for a possible transaction in which REI is the principal buyer. ListingSpark controls its brokerage documents and listing services, the title company controls settlement documents, and an attorney or licensed broker answers legal or brokerage questions.

Two paths, different agreements

REI’s purchase contract is not a ListingSpark listing agreement.

Direct investor purchase: REI Property Advisors LLC may contract as principal buyer for its own account. The seller should review the purchase contract and may obtain independent legal advice before signing.

Retail or MLS sale: The property owner contracts directly with ListingSpark as the listing broker. REI does not represent the owner, negotiate the listing, complete brokerage documents, or provide legal advice.

This form asks REI to consider the property for its own investment account. It does not create an agency relationship, listing agreement, purchase contract, offer, or obligation to proceed.

Want an MLS listing instead?

Go directly to ListingSpark or another licensed broker. The owner should create and control that brokerage account and obtain pricing, listing advice, market analysis, negotiation support, and brokerage documents from the selected broker.
