What is MLS?Multiple Listing Service or MLS is a tool to help listing brokers find cooperative brokers working with buyers to help sell their clients' homes. This is the same tool that Real Estate Agents and brokers use to list and market homes. The MLS provides the bedrock of information millions of people depend on to make smart real estate decisions. The vast majority of home sales happen by real estate brokers and agents working together on the MLS, not because of portals, websites or apps.
-
Will my home be on Zillow and Realtor.com?Yes! Most home listings can be found on popular home search apps and websites because they get their information from the Multiple Listing Service.
-
Is this the same MLS that Realtors use?Yes. As we are a brokerage licensed by the state of Florida and members of the National Association of Realtors we use the same MLS that all realtors use.
-
What areas do you cover?At Florida Flex Realty, we pride ourselves on our statewide coverage. With our comprehensive MLS access, we can list any home located in the state of Florida. Once your listing is in the MLS, it is syndicated to numerous websites, ensuring maximum exposure for your property to potential buyers across the state and beyond. Rest assured, your home will receive the attention it deserves with Florida Flex Realty.
-
How long is the listing agreement?Our listing agreements are 6 months long.
-
Do I have to pay a real estate commission to list my property?No. When you choose one of our DIY Listing packages, you'll only need to cover the package fee to list your property in the MLS.
-
Do I have to offer a buyers agent commission?Brokerage Commissions are not set by law and are fully negotiable. You have the flexibility to determine the amount of compensation you want to offer the buyers agent (if any at all). The buyers agent commission is negotiated as part of the contract with the buyer.
-
Can I really sell my home on my own?Yes, of course! The state of Florida allows you to sell a property that you own and you do not need a license to do so.
-
Will Agents show my Home?Yes. Depending on the package you chose to list your home you will either be contacted by real estate agents directly to setup showings or you will use an electronic showing approval system.
-
What is the difference between listing with you and listing with a realtor?There is no difference! We are a fully licensed and insured real estate brokerage in the state of Florida! We are also Realtors and Members of the National Association of Realtors.
-
Why put your listing into MLS?When we place your home on the Multiple Listing Service, we ensure that your home is displayed on nearly every real estate company website in town and on top real estate search apps. Placing your listing into MLS puts your home in front of Brokers, Real Estate Agents and distributes it to all major real estate websites like Realtor.com, Zillow.com, homes.com, Remax.com, Coldwellbanker.com, and many more! These real estate websites pull in their information directly from the MLS.
