Frequently Asked Questions

Flat Fee MLS Listings: How It Works

A Flat Fee MLS Listing offers the same exposure as a traditional 6% listing with a REALTOR® but at a significantly lower cost. As licensed REALTORS® and BROKERS, we ensure that your listing appears just like any other on the MLS.

You can sell your property directly to a buyer without an agent and avoid paying a buyer’s agent commission. However, if an agent brings a buyer, they must be compensated with the agreed-upon commission. This listing method is ideal for For Sale By Owner (FSBO) sellers and other property owners looking to save on commissions.

Getting Listed: How Long Does It Take?

Once you sign up for a Flat Fee MLS Listing on our website, you’ll need to complete a few required documents, including:

✅ Listing Agreement

✅ Lead-Based Paint Disclosure

✅ Seller’s Disclosures

✅ Agency Form

✅ MLS Data Sheet

This process typically takes about 20 minutes. The faster you email us your completed documents, the sooner we can input your listing into the MLS. You’ll also need to send property photos and a description.After receiving your information, we’ll enter your listing into the MLS within 24 hours and send you a proof for review. Once you approve the listing, we’ll make any necessary changes and set it live! Additionally, we will ship your sign and lockbox within 24 hours.

Sign & Lockbox Delivery

We ship same-day via UPS, so you can expect to receive your sign and lockbox within 2-3 business days.

Your Contact Information on the MLS

Most MLS systems in Michigan allow us to include your contact details in the listing, making it easy for agents to reach out to you directly for showings. Additionally, we provide a dedicated website—www.showmylisting.com—where potential buyers and agents can easily find your contact information.

✔ No Hidden Fees – You only pay the flat fee at the time of listing.

Why Doesn’t Everyone Use a Flat Fee MLS Listing?

Do Buyer’s Agents Avoid Flat Fee Listings?

No. Your listing appears exactly like any other MLS listing. Buyer’s agents are only concerned with how much commission they will receive, not how much you paid to list the property.
