Is a Flat Fee Listing Right for You?
“Save more when you sell smart. Discover the power of flat fee listings.”
If you’re thinking about selling your home, you’ve probably asked yourself:
“Do I really need to pay a full commission to sell my house?”
At Blue Heron Real Estate, we say: Not necessarily.
Flat fee listings are changing the way people sell homes — especially in North Carolina’s coastal communities. But is this the right choice for you?
Let’s explore the benefits and how to know if it’s a good fit.
💡 What Is a Flat Fee Listing?
A flat fee listing means you pay a fixed rate to have your home professionally listed in the MLS (Multiple Listing Service). Your listing still gets exposure on Zillow, Realtor.com, Redfin, and other top sites — without paying a large percentage-based commission.
It’s a simple way to get maximum visibility without giving up a big chunk of your sale price.
✅ Benefits of a Flat Fee Listing
✔ Keep More of Your Equity
You don’t need to give away 5–6% of your sale price in commission. With a flat fee listing, you save thousands — and still get your home seen by serious buyers.
✔ You’re in Control
You can handle showings, communication, or negotiations at your own pace. Or, choose to add services only when you need a helping hand.
✔ You’re Not Alone
At Blue Heron Real Estate, we’re always here for guidance, forms, and local expertise — even with our most basic plans.
❓ Is It Right for You?
A flat fee listing may be a great option if:
You want to save on listing commission
You’re comfortable showing your home
You’re in a hot market with strong buyer demand
You want flexibility and value
You might prefer full-service listing if:
You're short on time or out of town
You want an agent to handle everything
You’re selling a high-end or complex property
