Frequently Asked
Questions:
Q. What is the MLS? The Multiple Listing Service
is an extensive computerized database containing ALL of the properties
listed by Realtors® and seen by Realtors®. When a buyer contacts
a Realtor® to purchase property the Realtor® will search the
MLS for property meeting their criteria. The vast majority of homes
are sold through the MLS and the only way consumers can have their real
estate listed in the MLS is through a Realtor®.
Q. What exactly is a Realtor®?  A Realtor®
is a member in good standing with the National, State and Local Associations
of Realtors®. Only Realtors® can place property for sale in
the MLS and only Realtors® have full access to all the information
in the MLS.
Q. How long will my property be listed? We offer to
list your property until it sells. There is a $100 renewal fee
after 1 year to keep your property listed for an additional year.
Q. What if the buyer is not procured by a Realtor®? Then
you pay NO COMMISSION! That's right. You retain the right
to sell the property on your own and pay No Commission.
Q. What if the buyer
is procured by a Realtor®? Seller agrees to pay 3%
of the sales price to the procuring broker. There is no listing commission.
The most you could possibly pay is 3% plus the up front listing fee
of $495 or $795.
Q. What if List In MLS Realty, LLC procures the buyer?
Then we earn the 3% commission.
Q. Will my MLS listing look the same as those who have paid
a full listing commission to a traditional agent? Yes.
Your listing will look like the other listings on your local MLS. In
addition, we strongly encourage the use of multiple photos and descriptive
marketing remarks.
Q. How can List
In MLS Realty provide this service for so much less than the competition?
We don't believe it's reasonable to charge 3% or more to simply list
a property in the MLS. List In MLS Realty was founded to bring
consumers more efficient and effective real estate solutions while putting
pressure on the competition to LOWER REAL ESTATE COMMISSIONS. Our listing
process is extremely efficient and we are happy to pass the savings
on to you.
