We have seen other well-known national realty firms also saying they do discount or flat fee listings but they seem to be priced much higher, why is that?
A. Yes, there are firms like “Help U Sell”® and some local offices of major nationwide real estate companies such as “Century 21″® who may say they too offer flat rate listings. Often, they are really doing regular type of high-cost high-commission listings or trying to sell the home themselves (such as help-you-sell listings). Not too likely, without listing your home in The MLS). For example, a postal mailing we received from “Help U Sell”® offering $2,950 helpusell listings but (very negatively to success) omitting the “real estate multiple listing service.” Successful home sales are unlikely without being listed in the MLS.
