Discover Real Estate Limited
Basic MLS Listing Only Plan
- CAUTION -
This service should be used ONLY by experienced sellers! If you you
are not completely familiar with the real estate process in Alberta then
we strongly advice you to use our full service package.
You pay only a one time $1,395
(plus GST)
listing fee for a full 6 month MLS listing in which you offer to pay licensed
agents who bring you a firm purchase offer a commission of 3.5% on the first
100K of the sale plus 1.5% commission on the balance (plus
GST). This commission paid
to realtors working with buyers is a de-facto standard in Alberta and will
ensure that other agents arrange showings of your home.
We
do NOT charge a "listing" commission.
SATISFACTION
GUARANTEE!!
Should you
decide at any time that you would prefer us to sell
your home on your behalf, we
will deduct your $1,395 from our full service listing fees due at closing.
Below is two examples of your savings based on commonly charged
commission rate of 7% (first 100k) & 3.5% (on the balance):
Example
one:
Another agent brings a buyer to you ready, willing and able to purchase your
home at a price agreeable to you.
$300,000 sale, paying a Buyers Agent say
3.5% & 1.50% respectively plus your $1,395.00 listing fee.
You
will save approx. $5,105.
Example Two:
An interested buyer contacts you directly having visited your open
house, seen your MLS listing, seen your lawn sign etc..
$300,000 sale. With no buyers your only
cost is the original listing fee of $1,395.00
you will save
approx. $11,605 !
