Flat Fee MLS Listings $169.00 for one full year

Flat Fee MLS Listings

 

You get a professional MLS listing with all the essentials that 6% agents provide, PLUS all the cost saving benefits of selling as a "For Sale By Owner" for a Flat Fee of $169 for ONE FULL YEAR.

 

Flat fee MLS listing for homes, vacant land, or rental.

 

With flat fee MLS, sellers may choose to pay a commission only to the buyer's agent, saving 50%. If you sell ‘by owner’ with no Realtor involved, you would pay no commission!                            Commissions rates range from 1-3% of the purchase price.

 

We are an Internet discount MLS broker offering listings in your local MLS, Realtor.com, Homes.com, FloridaRealtors.org, PalmCoastAgents.com, AOL, MSN, Yahoo, Craigslist, Bargain Network, and many more.

 

Why being listed in MLS is so important

1.    MLS stands for "Multiple Listing Service", and is "the real estate market".

2.    Over 90% of all properties sold in the US are as a result of MLS listing exposure.

3.    Being listed in MLS means all the local Realtors can find your home in their MLS database.

4.    Buyers can find your home on thousands of public MLS websites, where they are most likely to be searching for a home.

5.    MLS listed properties (for sale by owner or not) sell faster and for more money than non-MLS listed "for sale by owner" properties.

 

 

Why you need a Realtor to list your home in MLS

Only a licensed real estate broker who belongs to the MLS and pays the MLS dues and fees is able to list a property.

An individual can't simply post an "ad" in MLS, like placing an ad in a newspaper. The real estate broker is also responsible for the accuracy of the listing, and keeping it current. For example, the broker can lose his MLS membership or pay heavy fines if a property is under contract or sold, but still listed as "Active" in MLS.

When you list with us, a licensed broker who belongs to the MLS where your property is located will be assigned to your listing.

 

What is the MLS?

The MLS, Multiple Listing Service, is a database of all property listings inputted by Realtors®. In a state such as Florida, there are over 50 MLS Associations. Realtors® join a local MLS board to receive benefits, agree to ethics standards, and work under a framework of cooperation between brokers. When you list your home in the MLS, your listing will be seen by all local Realtors® and they will work with buyers to sell your home.

What is Realtor.com and IDX?

Realtor.com is independent from the MLS. Each evening, all MLS listed properties throughout the country are upload automatically to Realtor.com from each local MLS Association. In turn, these listings are re-displayed on Realtor.com, and many other Realtor® websites through a feed called IDX.

Why List Flat Fee MLS?

By owner sellers do not pay 6%. Flat fee MLS sellers offer only buyer's agents a commission which is typically set at 3% but can be negotiated. The seller decides on how much commission to offer. Sellers are listing directly in the MLS with no listing commission.

Why List Flat Fee MLS?

The reason is simple…You are listing your home directly with a local flat fee MLS broker. We are the only national flat rate listing website that will never refer you to an unknown MLS broker.

You list with us, we input your property data on our sites and guarantee to always keep it up to date with any changes you may need at any time. Other national flat fee MLS websites will have you input your data, pay them and then they send your order to another company which will then require you to do the same process again…very annoying!
