Frequently Asked Questions
Our success rate is 100% when sellers follow our advice but ultimately your success rate will depend on what you do. If you over price your property there is nothing we can do to make it sell.
Yes agents show flat fee listings. Your listing will look no different than any other listing. The only commission agents care about is theirs not how much you paid us. Also the listing agent commission is not posted on the MLS so nobody will know what you paid us. You decide how much you are going to offer the buyer’s agent.
Unfortunately the MLS will not allow your phone number to be displayed to the public. The MLS will only display the listing Broker/Agent phone number. Your contact number can be in the MLS but it is only available for agents to view.
We forward all buyer leads directly to you, the seller. You are also allowed to display your phone number on the sign to attract buyers directly. If you sell to a buyer without an agent, you avoid paying a buyer agent commission. Additionally, you can choose to have your name and phone number listed on our website under your online listing, so buyers can contact you directly.
All commissions are negotiable. Historically sellers pay 2% to 3% to the buyer agent but this is not required. Some sellers pay above 3% and offer an incentive/bonus to buyer agents to help sell their property. Some sellers choose to pay less than 3%. It is your choice what you pay to a buyer agent. You can also pay a flat dollar amount rather than a percentage. The important thing to remember is that buyer agent fees are negotiable.
The only people who have access to list in the MLS are Real Estate Brokers and Real Estate Agents.
We are your listing broker and we list your property in the appropriate REALTOR® MLS for a low flat fee. The advantage is you save thousands of dollars in commissions and you are listed in your local MLS. Your listing looks no different than any other listing.
You can cancel our service at any time and list with a different REALTOR®. Some sellers think we are not a REALTOR® when in fact not only are we a REALTOR® but also a Broker. We have negotiated and closed over two thousand real estate transactions. It takes many years of experience and college education to become a Real Estate Broker.
The Quick answer is there is no difference.
Some sellers think they are getting a different kind of MLS listing. This is not the case. We list your property on the same local MLS as all other agents. The big difference is instead of charging a 3% listing commission we charge a low flat fee.
Our flexible pricing allows you to choose which listing service best fits your needs. We are your listing broker. Your listing will look the same as all other listings. The fees you pay are not listed or displayed on the MLS.
Bigger Savings: A Buyer with no Agent Means no Buyer Agent Commission
What is the Easy Offer?
The Easy Offer Plan is a method we use to help sellers find buyers without an agent. This plan is completely optional, but most sellers prefer it because when a buyer purchases your property without an agent, there is potential for even greater savings.
How it Works
We attract buyers to your listing through our website, for sale signs, and QR code. This QR code specifically links directly to our listings page. If you choose to have your name and phone number displayed on your listing, the buyer can schedule a showing, ask questions, or even make an offer directly through our website with our easy offer portal. We’re actively working to find a buyer without an agent, helping you save even more money.
What We Do
If you and the buyer agree on price and terms, we will process the entire sale. We handle:
- All Required Paperwork
- Inspections, Disclosures
- Closing Documents
- Lender Requirements
- Any other necessary paperwork or duties to help the buyer get to a closing
We have found that even when buyers choose to represent themselves, considerable work is still required to assist them and ensure the sale closes smoothly. To cover this effort, we charge the buyer a nominal fee. The seller pays nothing for the easy offer plan.
All of this means more money in your pocket.
Note: If the buyer has a buyer agreement with a real estate agent, they will not be able to use the Easy Offer Plan. In this case, their offer will come directly through their realtor.
