Real estate commission rebate A primer
Real estate commission (at least from the sale side of the transaction) can be eliminated from the equation through the use of the Flat Fee Multiple Listing Service when selling your home. By paying a one time flat fee, you will have your home listed on hundreds of Multiple Listing Service websites around the country, gaining maximum exposure for your sale. What you may not realize is that many real estate agents will limit the number of website listings for their clients in order to increase their chances of earning the sale commission. With Flat Fee Multiple Listing Service, you will have access to all the marketing tools that traditionally were reserved for agents alone without having to pay thousands of dollars in real estate commission at time of closing. You will have to pay real estate commission to a buyers broker if the purchasers use an agent to find your home, but that is still a fraction of the real estate commission for which you would have been responsible by hiring an agent of your own.
