Benefit from Flat Fee MLS Listings

While full-service representation offers convenience, it comes with a cost – typically a 6% commission fee deducted from your final sale price. This can significantly impact your profits.

Fortunately, there's a more affordable alternative: a flat-fee MLS listing service. At Real Estate Corners, we specialize in helping homeowners use the power of flat-fee MLS listings. This option allows you to save on commission fees by bypassing the listing agent while still gaining crucial exposure through the MLS.

The MLS is a comprehensive database used by real estate agents, and it feeds into major real estate websites like Zillow and Trulia. This broad exposure increases your chances of reaching qualified buyers and achieving a faster sale.

In this blog, we will share everything you must know about flat-fee MLS listings and how they can benefit home sellers like you.

 

What should I know about a flat fee MLS listing near me?

 

Flat-fee MLS listings in Minnesota allow homeowners to list their properties on the local MLS with our help. This approach allows you to bypass the traditional listing agent and save you the typical 6% commission fee associated with full-service real estate representation.

 

When you sign up for a flat-fee MLS service here at Real Estate Corners, we'll ensure that your property gets listed on the local MLS — a powerful database that feeds into major real estate websites like Zillow and Trulia to boost your visibility to qualified buyers.

 

Our FSBO (For Sale By Owner) packages start at just $399. This allows you to save on realtor fees while still getting the exposure you need to sell your home effectively.

 

Are you selling your home and looking to buy a new one? We offer competitive representation when selling your existing property.  This includes a flat-fee MLS listing to ensure maximum exposure to potential buyers.

Looking to find your dream home while saving money? We can assist you in your search and provide a buyer's rebate of up to $4,000 at closing. There are two options available:

·     If you’ve already found your dream home, we'll represent you throughout the buying process and credit you 1% of the final sale price (up to $4,000) at closing.

·     If you need help finding the right home, we'll guide you in your search and offer a 0.5% rebate of the final purchase price (up to $4,000) at closing.

 

Our buyer services are free because we earn from our listing business. So, don’t hesitate to talk to one of our real estate agents if you’re interested.

 

Who can benefit from a flat fee MLS listing near me?

 

Anyone with an FSBO listing can benefit from our flat-fee MLS listing service. For example, people who sell multiple properties annually (such as home builders, house flippers, investors, seasoned FSBO sellers, and former real estate agents) can consider our services to save thousands in commission fees. We also work directly with individual home sellers who wish to experience the same advantage.

 

No matter your situation, our flat-fee MLS listing service should allow you to keep most of the profits. Plus, you could outbid investors who still use traditional real estate agents who charge the 6% commission.

 

Are you selling your home for the first time?

 

Flat-fee MLS listings can make it easier. Our agents can help you navigate the process and increase your confidence when you sell a house via FSBO. Use our FSBO package to gain experience and save money in the process.

 

How can I benefit from a flat fee MLS listing near me?

 

The most obvious benefit of our flat-fee MLS listing service in Minnesota is the significant savings. Instead of paying the regular 6% commission, you pay only for the buyer agent’s commission, which is around 2.5% to 3%. This is significantly less than the usual cost of a full-service agent representation.

 

Here are more ways our service can benefit you:

 

·        Increased profit

Investors can profit more by eliminating the hefty real estate commissions. This means they can bid higher on a property and gain an edge over competitors who work with traditional agents. Similarly, FSBO sellers can enjoy more profits from the sale.

 

·        Enhanced exposure

FSBO sellers benefit greatly from our flat-fee MLS listing service because it allows more exposure for their properties. Instead of posting their own listings on real estate websites one at a time, listing on the MLS automatically shows their homes to hundreds of these websites, including Realtor.com, Trulia.com, and Redfin.com, saving them more time and effort.

If you choose our service, we allow unlimited edits and changes on your listings for free, and you won’t have to worry about updating the posts on other websites because the updates automatically apply across every syndicated website.
