Why do agents use the MLS? Because the truth
is, most properties are not sold by
the listing agent or listing office.
They are sold by a cooperating
agent from another office.
Agents use
the MLS as the best method for finding properties
for sale.
Do you need to pay thousands of dollars
to a listing agent who is not the selling
agent?
<>
ABSOLUTELY NO!
The Multiple
Listing Service is a facility for the orderly
correlation and dissemination of listing information
among Participants so that they may better serve
their clients and the public. The MLS is used by
real estate professionals to quickly locate specific
property and specific details about those properties
for sale. The MLS is both a book and a
computerized data base. To put as much
information as the MLS has in a newspaper ad
would take about 30 lines and cost more than
$250 for a few days.
Now you can LIST your home in the Real Estate
Multiple Listing Service (MLS) for only a fraction of
the cost of a full service agent. A typical agent will charge you
a 6% commission to list and sell your home. When you list with me, I
charge only a small flat fee to list your home. If your home is
sold through a MLS
broker you will pay them a commission, the amount is set by you. typically
in the range of 2-3%.
I have 24/7 on-line access to and will list your property in the
MLS and provide additional services for the
following fees:

Your listing is input into the MLS as
a regular listing, just like other list
ings by full service agents. Thus you
get the same exposure that a higher
priced agent would give you. Best
of all, you still retain the right to sell
your property yourself and pay no
commission. You decide how much
commission you will pay when we fill
out the listing form. Other services
available to meet your needs as
required.
