Common questions
Is 1.69% a flat-fee or discount listing?
It’s full service: a free CMA, MLS and portal exposure, professional photos, negotiation, and every step to closing, at a lower commission.
Do I pay anything upfront?
No. Your 1.69% is due only if your property sells and closes, or as set out in the 90-day protection period in your listing agreement.
Does 1.69% include the buyer’s agent?
No. Buyer’s agent compensation is separate, optional, and negotiable. It usually runs 2.00% to 3.00%, and we’ll walk you through it before you list.
