Most agents will list your home for 6%.  They determine a price for you home, put up a sign, hold open houses, put your listing on the MLS, and some will send out fliers.  Then they’ll help you with offers on your home and walk you through closing.

As you can see, most of this you can do for yourself.  The major difference between going with an agent vs a for sale be owner is access to the MLS.  Most buyers are working with agents that have access to the MLS.  Half of what you pay a sales agent goes to the buyers agent for bringing you a willing buyer.  These fees are negotiable, they are not set by law.

y listing with me for a flat fee, you gain the major advantage of being listed on the MLS and being seen by thousands online.  I’ll put a sign on your yard, put your listing on the MLS, put an electronic lock box on your home, get you listed on Realtor.com and AZCentral.com, and put up to 6 photos on your home online, all for 1 year.  All you do is keep a presentable home, make and hand out fliers, and hold open houses!  All this will be available to you for a low flat fee of $2000.00.

While you are paying a low fee to listing your property, you are advised to give a standard 3% of the purchase price of your home to the buyers agent.  This is negotiable, though you do want to compete with other homes up for sale.

Let’s break down the savings on an average home priced at $250,000.  At 6% you’re paying $15,000!  Now if you listed your home with me:  3% to buyer’s agent ($7,500) + $2,000 flat listing fee = $9,500.  In this example, you saved $5,500!  Keep more of your hard earned home equity in your pocket where it belongs, all for doing a little leg work.
