Flat Fee Listing on MLS® & REALTOR.ca
What is a Flat Fee Listing on MLS® & REALTOR.ca?
A flat-fee listing places your property directly on the MLS® system and REALTOR.ca for a fixed price, bypassing the standard 2.5% listing agent commission. You gain the exact same online exposure as a traditional listing while keeping more of your equity.
How does a Flat Fee Listing Work?
Selling with a flat-fee model is a very straightforward process.
- Submit Your Details & Photos: We will provide you with standard Ontario real estate forms to authorize the listing.
- Go Live on REALTOR.ca: Our licensed brokerage syndicates your property to the MLS® system and REALTOR.ca, pushing your listing to millions of buyers and active real estate agents.
- Manage Offers & Save: We assist with the showings. When an offer arrives, you can choose to close the deal and save thousands by skipping the full 2.5% listing commission.
What is the difference between a Flat Fee Listing and a Full-Service Listing?
The biggest difference is the savings!
- Full agent representation
- Paperwork & negotiations
- Showings & offer management
- MLS & REALTOR.ca entry
- Custom lawn sign & lockbox
