Pricing & packages
Three service levels. Every one puts your property on the same MLS every brokerage uses. What changes is how much of the transaction we take off you. We are a virtual agent service. Everything, including the representation on Full Service, is handled by phone, email and video. We attend the property only if you book the in-person visit.
The packages
Each package shows what you pay to start and what is due if the property sells. Add-ons are separate.
with nothing at closing
- You receive the offers, you negotiate, and you carry the sale through to closing.
plus 0.5% at closing
- Offers come to us. A licensee explains what each one says. You negotiate.
plus 1% at closing, minimum $2,500
- Offers come to us. We negotiate for you and stay with it through to closing.
Commissions and fees are not set by law and are fully negotiable. Any concession you offer a buyer’s agent is separate and negotiated as part of the purchase agreement.
Compare all three, line by line
Every row below applies to all three packages. What changes is how much of the offer, negotiation and closing work we take on.
| What you get | MLS Listing$599 to start | Most chosenOffer Support$799 to start | Full Service$1,199 to start |
|---|---|---|---|
| Your listing | |||
| Listed on the MLS that covers your address The same MLS the agents in your area use, not a national listing site that copies your details somewhere else. | Included | Included | Included |
| Zillow, Realtor.com and the other sites the MLS feeds The MLS sends your listing out to them. Each of those sites decides how it displays a listing and how quickly. None of them are ours, so we cannot promise what any one of them shows. | Included | Included | Included |
| On the MLS within 48 hours Counted from when your file is complete and signed, not from when you start. Need it faster? Same-day entry is $99. | Included | Included | Included |
| Photos on the MLS Full Service is not capped, and its photographs are taken for you. | Up to 35 | Up to 50 | Unlimited |
| Broker review before it goes live A licensee checks your file against what the MLS requires before entry. This is what keeps a listing from being rejected, corrected or fined after it posts. | Included | Included | Included |
| Listing changes: price, photos, description, status Request it from your dashboard and a licensee enters it on the MLS. No cap and no per-change fee on any package. | Unlimited | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| How long the listing runs Michigan requires a definite end date on a listing agreement, and it cannot make you give notice to end at that date. Renewing costs nothing. | 6 months | 6 months | 12 months |
| What it costs | |||
| Due when you start Refundable in full right up until your listing goes on the MLS. After entry it is earned. | $599 | $799 | $1,199 |
| Due at closing Payable only if the property sells. On a $300,000 sale that is $0, $1,500 and $3,000. Full Service has a $2,500 floor, so under a $250,000 sale it is $2,500 rather than the percentage. | Nothing | 0.5% of the sale price | 1% of the sale price, minimum $2,500 |
| What you offer a buyer’s agent Your decision on every package. It is not required, it cannot be advertised in the MLS, and it is negotiated in the purchase agreement. It costs the same whichever package you pick. | You choose | You choose | You choose |
| Cancel before it goes on the MLS Everything you paid comes back. No fee, no reason required. | Free | Free | Free |
| Cancel after it goes on the MLS You can end the listing. What you already paid is earned and is not refunded, and nothing further is charged. There is no cancellation fee. | No fee | No fee | No fee |
| Showings and access | |||
| How we work with you We are a virtual agent service. Everything, including the representation on Full Service, happens by phone, email and video. Nobody from our office attends the property unless you book the in-person visit, which is $1,000. | Virtual | Virtual | Virtual |
| Showings booked through ShowingTime The scheduling app agents already use. A request reaches you on your phone and you approve or decline the time. | Included | Included | Included |
| Who answers showing requests On Full Service we take the requests and coordinate access with you. | You do | You do | We do |
| Open houses posted to the MLS You host it. We put it on the MLS so agents and the portals pick it up, and that is where our part ends: nobody from our office attends. | 2 | 4 | Unlimited |
| Professional photography Included on Full Service, shot and uploaded for you. On the other two packages it is on the add-on menu. Aerial drone, walkthrough video and the 3D tour are add-ons on every package. | Add-on | Add-on | Included |
| Yard sign and lockbox A yard sign is $149 and a lockbox is $149. Neither is required to sell. | Add-on | Add-on | Add-on |
| When an offer arrives | |||
| Where offers go Your listing gets its own offer address, so your personal phone number does not have to go in the MLS either way. | Straight to you | To us, then to you | To us, then to you |
| A licensee explains what the offer says The terms that are not the price: the dates, what the buyer can walk away from, what happens to the deposit, who pays for what at closing. | Not included | Included | Included |
| Negotiating and writing counteroffers On MLS Listing and Offer Support this is yours to do. We can explain an offer on Offer Support, but we do not negotiate it for you. | You do | You do | We do |
| Accept, counter or decline Always your call, on every package. Nobody here can accept or sign an offer for you. | You decide | You decide | You decide |
| After the purchase agreement is signed | |||
| Inspection, appraisal, title and closing Chasing the dates, the lender, the title company and the closing table. On the first two packages this is yours to run. | You do | You do | We work it with you |
| Title and settlement coordinated for you We order the title work, keep the title company supplied with what it needs and read the settlement statement before you sign it. | Not included | Not included | Included |
| Paperwork and support | |||
| Michigan forms and disclosure templates The forms a Michigan sale needs, ready to fill in, in your account. | Included | Included | Included |
| Seller disclosure and lead paint disclosure These are your statements about your property. No broker is allowed to complete them for you, at any price, here or anywhere else. | You complete | You complete | You complete |
| Sign everything online Nothing to print or scan. You get a copy of each document at the moment you sign it. | Included | Included | Included |
| Your dashboard and status updates Where the listing, the documents, the showings and the offers live. The same account on every package. | Included | Included | Included |
| Comparable sales report What sold nearby and how your home compares. It is an estimate, not an appraisal, and you set the asking price. | Included | Included | Included |
| Phone and email support | 7 days a week, 8am to 8pm | 7 days a week, 8am to 8pm | 7 days a week, 8am to 8pm |
Commissions and fees are not set by law and are fully negotiable.
Against an assumed 3% listing side
The table below compares our listing side cost against an assumed 3% of the sale price. That assumption is for illustration only. Real estate compensation is negotiable, it is not set by law, and another brokerage may quote you more or less.
The comparison column assumes a listing side charge of 3% of the sale price. It is an illustration for comparison, not a rate any brokerage is required to charge; real estate compensation is negotiable and another brokerage may quote you more or less.
Listing side only. The MLS Listing column is the package fee and excludes any add-ons. Any concession you offer a buyer’s agent is negotiated separately and costs the same either way.
When you pay
You choose a package and any add-ons when you start, and you pay the package fee then. It is refundable in full until your listing goes on the MLS, at which point it is earned. Where a package also has an amount due at closing, that is payable only if the property sells, so no sale means none of it is owed. Add-ons are contracted separately with Michigan For Sale LLC and are billed when they are booked.
