Please note: This page contains information that does not include the new MLS rules that were implemented in July 2024. Sellers no longer need to offer compensation to a Buyer’s Agent in order to have your property listing on MLS. While sellers still do offer compensation it is now optional.
The simple answer to how much you can save by using our flat fee MLS service at the very least is half of what you would normally pay if you were to list your property with a full-service brokerage. InstaMLS.com removes the listing side of the transaction. When you hire a traditional listing broker to sell your home, you will most likely be charged approximately 5% or even 6% of the selling price of your home. The listing broker usually splits this percentage with the Buyer’s Agent for introducing the buyer to the property and procuring the deal.
Our one-time flat fee automatically cancels out the traditional listing agent’s side of the fee. We take no commission. The only agent you would be compensating would be the Buyer’s Agent. You will decide how much you want to pay the agent that brings you a buyer who purchases your home. It can be any amount you wish to offer. Although, we have no requirement for the amount of compensation that you should offer. We suggest that you offer an amount that is equal to the industry standard. Buyer Agents are working tirelessly searching and showing Buyers homes. Every day another home is added to the list. In order to get the Buyer Agent to introduce you to one of their Buyers, you will need to entice them. The best way to motivate a real estate agent is to wave commission percentages in their face. We will tell you what the average commission rate is in your neighborhood so you know what you should be offering.
If your Buyer is not represented by a real estate agent, you do not have to pay a commission. We never take a commission, just a flat fee for the services we provide. By working with us for a flat fee, you will save thousands of dollars.
