Flat fee MLS listing has created a level playing field for the For Sale By Owner

More than 80% of all homes are Sold as a direct result of MLS enormous targeted exposure!

The Multiple Listing Service (MLS) is the primary data system that most realtors use to market and sell property. Traditionally the only way to get your home listed on the MLS was to list your home with a realtor (agreeing to pay them 6%). Now over 42,000 real estate agents in Georgia will know your home is for sale, get a detailed description of the property with photos and know exactly what commission you are willing to pay them to bring you a buyer (usually 2.5% - 3%).

GET LISTED ON BOTH M.L.S. AND F.M.L.S. FOR A FLAT FEE OF ONLY $295.00 We represent you UNTIL SOLD and Negotiate as many offers necessary to get your home SOLD Includes FREE Photography of your home ~ 16 Photos on Georgia MLS ~ 12 Photos on First MLS A transaction fee of .0033 of your final contract sale price due at Closing. That's only 1/3 of 1%

Exclusive Right To Sell with Open Listing allows you to find a Buyer and pay NO Commissions!

If you find a buyer that is not working with a Real Estate agent, there is no Commission due at closing. Many of our customers find Buyers through their Realtor.com Listing, the included Yard Sign, referral or other marketing efforts. 'Exclusive Right to Sell with Open Listing' is a rare type of property Listing that you're able to benefit from being listed yet still sell your home by owner and pay NO Commissions. It is worth mentioning that if a traditional Realtor© list your property and no buyers agent is involved, listing agent will keep the entire 6% commissions themselves.

M.L.S FAQ (frequently asked questions)

How does the Photos get attached to my Listing? Answer: Photos of the exterior and interior of your home will be taken by your Solid Source Realty agent during the initial listing appointment. You can also Submit your favorite photos to Solid Source Realty for upload to listing at anytime. ALL photos must be HORIZONTAL shots - vertical shots will appear distorted on the M.L.S listing.

Solid Source Realty can display upto 12 photos on your FMLS listing and upto 16 photos on your Georgia MLS listing (FREE of charge to you). These are the maximum number of photos allowed by the multiple listing services.

Will agents avoid my listing because I am saving so much money? Realtors want to find a home that meets their buyers needs as quickly as possible and as long as they get paid a competitive commission for bringing the Buyer. It is extremely rare that an agent would refuse to show your home if you contractually agreed to pay them a competitive commission. There may be a small number that violate the Code of Ethics but it is extremely rare. In general.. the MLS listing does not tell them how much you are paying to list your home.. Only what you are offering to pay the agent who brings a buyer, so the agent won't know how much you are saving on the listing side.

In addition.. ALL FLAT FEE MLS are listed with Solid Source Realty (the Largest independent real estate company in Georgia with OVER 2500 active real estate agents). Solid Source Realty is the #1-SELLING and #1-LISTING Real Estate Company in the State of Georgia the past 18 MONTHS.

Do I need to come to your office to be listed? Answer: No, you do not have to visit our office to get listed. Our services are set up to maximize your convenience. The necessary paperwork can be e-mailed, faxed, or mailed both ways so there is no travel, appointment, or time-consuming meetings to get Listed.

FINE PRINT

Solid Source Realty will list house in your areas MLS database. Some areas have two listing services. We will list your house in both the MLS and FMLS. You need both to sell your home! These databases are the fundamental way a house is advertised in your area by Realtors®

1. GAMLS – The multiple listing service in the past primarily covered the south side of Atlanta but now located all over the metro area. GAMLS is growing strong on the north side of Atlanta. Many agents on the north side are using this service primarily.

2. FMLS – The multiple listing service in the past primarily covered a territory north of I-20 that has now grown to overlap the GAMLS. It is because of this expansion that it has become almost impossible to predict what database a buyer agent will search from. Both services are essential.

* There is a 0.12% fee due to the F.M.L.S (at closing) for all properties listed in their database!

The 0.12% fee is paid directly to the F.M.L.S at closing and not paid to Solid Source Realty, Inc. FMLS listing are mandatory for the following counties: Bartow, Cherokee, Cobb, Dawson, Dekalb, Douglas, Forsyth, Fulton (North of I-20), Gordon, Gwinnett, Hall, Lumpkin, Paulding and Pickens.

* If the sale price is $100,000 - The fee due FMLS at closing would be $120 (100,000 x 0.0012)

3. We consider our $295.00 upfront flat fee as payment to advertise your property. At closing
we charge a small fee of .0033 of your sales price to handle ALL Negotiations and Paperwork.
