WHAT ARE FLAT RATE MLS SERVICES
The Multiple Listing Service (MLS) is a premium marketing service using a localized network of brokerages so that listing with a single member of the MLS places the listing in front of all members of the MLS for your area through a shared database. As a result, all buyers who work with any member of the MLS are exposed to your property. The listing brokerage also provides other supplemental services for the seller.
Flat Rate MLS services provide MLS exposure but without other premium, supplemental services. Because the listing brokerage agrees to do less, it costs less. The seller still receives the benefit of having exposure through the MLS shared database to all brokerages in the MLS area.
Brokerages offering Flat Rate MLS services will quote a low up front fee for the valuable, but limited, services which are included. The seller only has to pay one-half of the usual fee at closing to the brokerage which found the buyer. The effect is saving nearly one-half of the typical MLS commission.
