It's your purchase, sale or lease. You pick the nonprofit to get funding and the broker you want to work with.

IIC CAN WORK WITH ANY AGENT/BROKER IN THE US

Let us know if you have a broker in mind. Or, we can provide you with several referrals. Either way, there’s no cost to the buyers or sellers who want to help a nonprofit, cause, or individual they care about.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Agents/brokerage companies can not pay IIC to call them
IIC chooses agents/brokers for matching expertise, only
IIC does not choose agents/brokers because they may be generous
Primary concern for consumers is buying for the least and selling for most… and IIC gives the consumer an advantage.

REAL ESTATE CONSUMERS

As a first time home buyer, I wanted to find a realtor I could trust, that would have my best interests in mind. By going through Investing in Communities, I was able to choose one that had been screened for specializing in the kind of property, price range, and even the neighborhoods that I wanted. And, because of IIC’s social mission, my home purchase also enabled me to support a great nonprofit, at zero cost to me! I couldn’t have been happier with the outcome.

As treasurer of our elementary school’s volunteer fundraising group, I can say that the $1,766 from Investing In Communities was probably the easiest money we’ve ever raised, considering how little time and effort it required. We definitely see how IIC could be a great fundraising tool for us and other schools.
