You could choose to sell your home with the help of a real estate agent. That would mean interviewing agents, talking with friends or family members who have sold homes and taking the time to find someone you trust. Sure, you’d have someone who would list your home in the multiple listing service database, someone who would set up open houses and show the home, but at the end of the process, you’d have to turn over 3% of the selling price of your home.

On the other hand, you could choose to sell on your own. You’d get to keep all of the proceeds of the sale but you’d find some hangups: first, there’d be a lack of exposure for the property. Buyers’ agents would be reluctant to show your home, and that would mean you’d be out on the streets making more of an effort to sell your home, and you may even end up giving up and hiring a real estate agent.

Or, of course, you could sell your home a smarter way, with flat fee MLS. With flat fee MLS, you can avoid the high cost of selling with a real estate agent - but still have nearly all of the advantages: exposure, seller’s tips and a listing in the multiple listing service database. You also get the perks that come with selling on your own: control, independence and savings.
