Flat Rate MLS Companies

At first glance, there appears to be a lot of flat rate MLS companies out there. Deciding which one is the best can be quite overwhelming. Be aware that many of these companies are simply 3rd party facilitators and are not actual real estate agencies. Here is what to look for when choosing a flat fee MLS company:

Select Premium Properties	Other Companies
We are an actual Real Estate agency, licensed for your area. We are the company that will list your home in the MLS. We charge only $195.	They typically charge you anywhere from $400 to $1000 dollars, then transfer you to an unknown 3rd party Real Estate company.
Major Tip! The number one thing to look for in a flat fee company is to make sure that the company you are listing with is a fully licensed Real Estate company. A lot of "flat fee companies" are simply go-betweens. They are unlicensed, and have no ability to list you in the MLS system. They may simply take your money and refer you to an unknown real Real Estate company. This can create difficulties if problems arise. Select Premium Properties, is a reputable, licensed real estate company with full membership in your local Realtors® MLS. We will list your home and be here to help you from start to finish with strong customer support.
Once your listing information is received from our website, it goes into the MLS usually the same business day!	Many days may go by before an unknown company lists you.
You are assured of a high-quality listing from a very reputable real estate company.	You are rarely assured of a high quality listing and may not know who your real estate company will be.
We have no hidden costs.	Additional undisclosed servicing fees may surprise you!
You have unlimited, free customer support via email whenever you need it. The Broker is also available by phone should any problems arise.	They may give you the runaround. If they are not a licensed Real Estate company, they won't know anything about your listing and may not be able to answer any questions.
We offer you the proper Realtor® lockbox and marketing materials for your area. You are able to place your number on the sign.	They usually offer you a generic lockbox and signs that only contain their phone number, not yours.
Major Tip! A typical marketing ploy is offering free lockboxes and signs with your listing. 3rd party facilitators do not have the ability to provide the proper MLS Realtor® approved lockbox. Incompatible "free" lockboxes are useless because local agent's keypads will not work in them. Furthermore, most MLS systems restrict the use of non-authorized lockboxes on properties listed in the MLS. Select Premium Properties lockboxes are authorized by your local MLS system. And our signs never display our telephone number, instead there is a place for your number. So you will get all the calls.
We pass on all internet and phone leads to you.  Since we do not work directly with buyers and only list homes, we will assist you in every way possible to help you sell your home.	They may never pass on internet leads to you. Other companies may try to sell the home themselves to earn a buyers agent commission or try to get new listing leads from potential buyers.

As you can see, not all flat rate companies are the same. By listing with Select Premium Properties you can rest assured that you will be getting a high-quality MLS listing from a reputable real estate company.
