Your agent handles all of it: the prep, the photos, the open houses, the offers, the escrow.
No obligation, and nothing up front. You’ll talk to a person, not a call center.
How it works
A normal full-service sale, and you know the fee on day one.
You'll see what the house is worth: comps that match it, what's selling nearby, and a list price you agree on before anything goes live.
Photography, the MLS, open houses, showings, offers, inspection, escrow. We keep it moving, and you hear from us before you have to ask.
Nothing up front. The fee comes out of escrow when the sale closes, and it's set by what the house sells for, not by how long it takes or how much work it turns out to be.
Fair question
A flat $12,500 listing fee under $1 million, or $19,500 for every whole million of sale price from $1 million up. That's the whole price.
We do the job well and we'd like to do it a lot. The price is set for volume: more houses at a fair number, and nobody here needs to make a killing on yours. There's also no showroom office to pay for, so the fee doesn't have to carry a lease and a floor of desks.
In steps, not as a percentage. One fee under a million, then a flat figure for every whole million of sale price. A bigger house pays more, but never a share of what it's worth. The worked examples are on the flat fee page. See the steps
Nothing. All 14 services we publish run on every listing we take, from photography and the MLS through to escrow and closing. See the list
At closing, out of escrow. Nothing up front. The flat fee sits on your settlement statement where a percentage would have been.
Yes, and you choose what to offer. Our selling examples assume a 2 percent buyer-side offer. Raise it or lower it and the savings move with it.
You’d keep $14,500 more than a 5% commission.
Estimated cash back $10,000 at closing, if the buyer’s side offers 2.5%.
Flat fee $12,500
Set once your offer is accepted.
Based on a 5% total commission. Savings vary by property and price.

Despite being a flat fee agent we never once felt we got less service than a traditional brokerage and service.
Contacted Tom on a Tuesday had a open house on Saturday and had an offer that we accepted on Monday.
Tom sold our house for more than $300k over asking price after only two days on the market!
…more cash in your pocket because of the flat fee!
