Full service from preparation to closing
Before listing, discuss your goals, the condition of your home and the competing properties buyers will consider. After launch, review showing feedback and offers. Once under contract, Michael helps you navigate inspection requests, appraisal questions and the steps to closing.
Flat fee versus a percentage-based listing fee
The listing fee is $4,995 for eligible properties under the listing agreement. A percentage fee varies with the sale price. Compare both the fee and the services included; fees are negotiable and no percentage is required.
On a hypothetical $400,000 sale, a 3% listing-side fee is $12,000. The difference from $4,995 is $7,005. This example excludes buyer-broker compensation and other selling costs. At lower sale prices, the flat fee may exceed the percentage being compared. Compare listing fees at your estimated sale price.
What costs are separate?
Buyer-broker compensation, title and closing charges, loan payoff, taxes, repairs and any agreed concessions are separate. Your contract and actual closing statement determine the total. Read the Oklahoma seller-cost guide.
Is this limited-service MLS entry?
No. This is full-service seller representation. An MLS-entry-only package may leave negotiations and transaction coordination to the owner. Compare those responsibilities in our FSBO guide.
Start with your likely net proceeds
An asking price is only part of the decision. Ask Michael for a property-specific CMA and an estimated seller net sheet so you can plan your next move with the same price assumptions.
- Share your address, recent improvements and preferred moving date.
- Discuss expected listing fees, possible buyer-broker compensation, closing charges and concessions.
- Include your estimated mortgage payoff and any known repair costs when considering your likely proceeds.
Your estimate can compare different sale-price and offer scenarios. It is a planning tool; the negotiated contract, lender payoff and closing statement determine the actual result. Request a home valuation and mention that you would like a seller net estimate.
Questions before you choose a listing service
Who handles the offers and inspections?
Michael provides seller representation through offer negotiation, inspection discussions, appraisal questions and closing. Use the contract-to-closing checklist to understand the steps after accepting an offer.
How do I compare $4,995 with a 1% listing proposal?
Use the same estimated sale price and compare the services and separate charges in each proposal. At a hypothetical $400,000 sale price, 1% is $4,000 and the $4,995 listing fee is $995 higher. At $600,000, 1% is $6,000 and the flat listing fee is $1,005 lower. These are listing-side fee illustrations only; buyer-broker compensation and other selling costs are excluded. No percentage is required, and fees are negotiable.
Can I plan a sale before choosing my next home?
Yes. Discuss your timing and priorities before listing. If you are buying in the metro too, review Homestead Ranch Realty’s buyer representation and coordinate the two plans.
