Flat Fee MLS is a home seller's proven path to savings

What does a listing in the Realtor® Multiple Listing Service and on Realtor.com mean to you selling your home? According to recent studies, over 75% of home sales take place through the MLS. So, unless your home is listed in the MLS you are missing out on over 75% of the market!

The MLS is the stock exchange for real estate. Trying to sell without an MLS Listing is like trying to sell stock without the stock exchange. You might be able to do, but you'd certainly be selling for less than you could have realized had you tapped into the entire marketplace. A home is a commodity just like stock. If you want to sell for the best possible price, you need to list on the Home Exchange.

Placing your home for sale flat fee MLS is like going to the bus stop where all the home buyers are waiting, picking them up and driving them to your home - but far more convenient. (And you don't need to rent a bus.)

The key to selling your home by owner is to let as many people know it's on the market as possible. This is known as creating buyer awareness. Once your property is listed for sale, it's critical to expose it to the highest number of people as early as possible. Studies show that the first few weeks are the most important home selling time for obtaining a sale at the highest price. By creating immediate demand for your home, you're increasing the odds of selling dramatically. As any economist will tell you, higher demand equals a higher selling price and a faster selling time.

So how do you increase demand for your property? Simple. Advertise it in the place most buyers look for homes. While many people still use classified ads, websites, homes magazines or other media to locate property, the overwhelming majority end up with a Realtor who can show them all of the homes on the market for free. Agents use the MLS almost exclusively to stay informed about what homes are currently on the market. The MLS is updated on a real time basis so it is the most accurate listing of properties and the agent's know that when they sell a property in the MLS it's already been determined that will be paid a buyer agent's fee for their efforts.

The long and short of it is, that in order to increase demand for your property, thereby increasing your final sales price and reducing the amount of time your home spends on the market, you have to have a listing in the Multiple Listing System. The most economical way to list your property then is Flat Fee MLS. With Flat Fee MLS You get placement in the exact same real estate property exchange that real estate agents and brokers use without having to pay for their complete line of services. So you keep more of your home's equity while still selling for top dollar!
