Flat fee mls listing Orlando Central Florida - frequently asked questions

By
Real Estate Agent with Sand Dollar Realty Group, Inc. BK627826

Can I offer a property For Rent using the flat fee MLS listing service? Yes. Just like we can input a home for sale, we can also input a home for rent in the MLS. The procedures are basically the same as a home for sale. However the data input form and the commission/fee structure is slightly different. We can also do a 1-time input of your listing on Craigslist, Postlets, and Rentals.com for an additional small fee. Sorry we do not offer For Rent signs to our customers unless you use our additional service to post your property on Rentals.com .

If I sell or rent my house on my own, what happens? Many times our customers end up selling to a buyer that found the property on Realtor.com, the internet, or other marketing without involving another Realtor. If you happen to be fortunate enough to sell or rent your house on your own, then your savings are even greater. You do not owe us anything more than the upfront money already paid to us. Upon closing, we will need a copy of the signed HUD-1 settlement statement in order to close out the file. You can provide us the contact information for the title company or attorney handling the closing, and we will take care of obtaining the settlement statement. If you end up renting your property, we just need you to send in the completed Status Change Form so that we can close out your listing in the MLS.

What counties / areas do you service for the flat fee mls listing? We currently service the following 29 Florida counties. If you do not see your county, call us anyway because we still may be able to help you. Alachua County, Baker, Bradford, Brevard, Broward, Charlotte, Clay, DeSoto, Duval, Flagler, Hardee, Hillsborough, Lake, Manatee, Marion, Martin, Miami-Dade, Nassau, Orange, Osceola, Palm Beach, East & Central Pasco, Polk, Putnam, Sarasota, Seminole, Saint Lucie, Sumter, and Volusia County (West Volusia, Daytona area, and New Smyrna area). Properties in Flagler County will be loaded into the Daytona Beach area MLS. CLICK HERE FOR SERVICE AREA MAP

How long is my flat fee mls listing for? Our standard listing agreement is for 12 months. If you want to list for a shorter period of time, you are welcome to choose how long you want to list for. We typically do not list properties for longer than 12 months, but we will allow you to extend your listing indefinitely at no additional charge if it is close to expiring.

How much time does it take to get listed on the MLS and the internet sites? Typically we can get your listing loaded into the MLS within 1-2 business days of receiving all of the paperwork from you. Realtor.com and the other internet websites upload their data from the MLS. Listings often take 4-5 business days to show up on these websites.
