❓ Who is responsible for MLS compliance and fines?
DIY Flat Fee MLS Plan:
When you choose this plan, you are responsible for all MLS compliance. This includes updating your listing status (Pending, Sold, etc.), following MLS rules, and ensuring all required disclosures and timelines are met. If the MLS issues a fine or penalty for non-compliance, you are solely liable.
DIY Pro Advisor Plan:
With this plan, we handle MLS compliance on your behalf. Our team manages the listing status updates, documentation, and MLS rule enforcement. We assume liability for any fines related to MLS compliance—giving you peace of mind and full support.
❓ How quickly will my listing go live?
Most listings are activated within 24 business hours after you submit your property details and required disclosures.
We also review your listing for MLS compliance before it goes live to avoid any delays.
❓ What websites will my property appear on?
Your home will be listed on the local Realtor MLS and syndicated to Zillow, Realtor.com, Homes.com, and hundreds of additional real estate sites — maximizing your buyer exposure nationwide.
❓ What if I need to make changes to my listing?
No problem.
Both plans include unlimited listing updates for changes like price adjustments, open house announcements, and status updates.
Simply submit your change request inside your DIY Dashboard , and we'll update your listing promptly.
❓ What happens if I don't sell my home?
If your home does not sell during the listing period:
DIY Realtor MLS Plan: You are only responsible for the upfront $395 fee. No closing fee is due.
DIY Pro Advisor Plan: Same — you only pay the upfront $95 fee if the property does not close.
❓ Can I cancel my listing if I change my mind?
Yes, you can cancel your listing at any time.
However, any upfront fees are non-refundable if your property is listed in the MLS LIsting is Live.
Please review the plan terms carefully before submitting your property.
Cancellation at any time permitted with a $195 early termination fee.
❓ How does the closing fee work?
The closing fee is paid at settlement through the ALTA Closing Statement:
DIY Realtor MLS Plan: $695 closing fee.
DIY Pro Advisor Plan: 1% of the final sales price.
It is automatically collected at closing by the settlement/title company — you don't need to worry about separate invoicing.

❓ Do I have to offer a buyer’s agent commission?
No, but it’s strongly recommended.
