A Full-Service Flat Fee listing provides homeowners with professional representation throughout the entire selling process, including pricing guidance, marketing strategy, negotiation support, and transaction management through closing.

In contrast, a MLS Listing Service Flat Fee (often called a limited-service listing) typically only places the property into a listing database and provides minimal or no broker involvement beyond that point. With an MLS-only service, the homeowner generally handles pricing, buyer communication, negotiations, and contract management themselves.

We do not. Our flat fee listing agreement is between the Charles Ruttenberg Flat Fee Home Team and the Seller. The commission to the buyer's agent would be agreed to with a buyer brokerage agreement between them and the seller. If the buyer wants to request concessions from the seller, they can include that in any offer that they submit. The seller can evaluate that offer based on the total net amount from the transaction, and decide to accept, reject, or counter based on their expectation.

Our Nationwide MLS Listing has a button to REQUEST A SHOWING. So whether it is a buyer or their agent, we will receive a request for a showing and confirm with you before confirming.

Once a week, we will do a check in to see if there are any days that we need to make the home unavailable for viewing. So if you work from home, or having some touch up work done to make the property more appealing, we can block those times from being requested.

We already know that buyers are doing most of the searching for listings in today's online market place. But other real estate professionals are still an important lead source.

Our extensive database of real estate professionals allows us to email them your listing DIRECTLY from our system. They can then pass on the link via text or email. If their buyer likes what they see, they can simply request a showing with the online booking tool.

Open houses are not part of the flat fee offer. However, if open houses are important to you, we can discuss an add-on service to cover the added effort.

Research and our experience shows that roughly 75-85% of all real estate searches occur in the 4 major real estate search engines. Some luxury homes do benefit from very specific marketing tactics. If your home fits this criteria, we can build a customized marketing plan and provide this as an add-on service.

Our local agents are well connected in their local markets. They will be posting your home to local community groups. But let's be honest, there is no better person to showcase your home in your local community than YOU. We will provide you everything you need to share the home on YOUR social media pages and with the groups you are involved in as well.
