What is the Multiple Listing Service (MLS)?
The Multiple Listing Service (MLS) is the primary data system that most Real Estate Agents use to market and sell property. 75% of all properties sold are sold through the MLS.
Can I be placed on the MLS for longer than 6 months?
Yes. Our Affiliate Agent can renew your listing for a nominal charge.
Who will be my listing Broker/Agent?
Our Affiliate Agent will handle the initial listing paperwork, but will indicate on the MLS that showings and all negotiations are done through you.
How many photos can I list on the MLS?
5 photos
How many forms do I have to fill out to get my property listed on the MLS?
You will need to complete a standard "Listing Agreement" and in some cases an Addendum stating that you have paid the listing agent a flat fee.
Is it necessary for me to hire an attorney in order to sell my own home?
In most real estate markets within the United States a title company can handle every aspect of a real estate transaction.
However, many customers hire a real-estate lawyer to protect their interests throughout any real estate transaction. A lawyer can act as an escrow agent for down payments, evaluate any complicated offers from potential buyers and handle closings.
When selecting a lawyer, choose one that specializes in real estate transactions (and don't be afraid to shop around for competitive rates).
What is your success rate in regard to selling properties?
Depending upon the metro area and region our success rates range from about 40% to 85%. Like all real estate marketing, the most important factor is the location of your property (both from a local and regional standpoint). |
