While you are listing a home on the MLS without an agent, this doesn't mean you can't get an agent to represent you when negotiating an offer. One of our most popular listing plans is Professional ADDvantage™ where the broker for ADDvantage® represents you in all transactions. He does all the negotiations, paperwork, inspections, appraisal negotiations, and closes the deal. The cost is low, just 0.75% at close ($1,500 min). Or, you can use our traditional flat fee MLS listing plan where you represent yourself for (Program not currently available).
Often, by owners prefer the expertise of a broker. Many out of state Realtors that own homes in Florida use Professional ADDvantage™ listing plan to sell their Florida property. It may seem surprising that a Realtor, even though not licensed in Florida, would choose the Professional ADDvantage™ plan. They, of course, could represent themselves. The reason is they believe the extra cost is worth the benefit. Most buyers’ agents are not a seller's best friend. By having the broker act as middleman can reap big benefits for the seller. In part, because buyer's agents respect the broker for ADDvantage® and this typically results in a higher offer for the seller.
