Finally... an affordable, full service marketing and sales service for Sellers.

 

Traditionally, real estate companies typically charge a percentage of the sale price of your home as a listing fee.  Although these fees can vary, they can be as high as 6%* of the sale price of your home.  For example, on a $400,000 sale at a 6% commission, this amounts to $24,000 in real estate fees alone!  That's a lot of your hard-earned equity out of your pocket.

​

But what about those other companies who advertise "discount" listing services?  Be careful to read the fine print.  Some will charge a low fee to list your home in the MLS, but then they will charge additional fees to handle showings, contracts, and coordinate the closing.  If you try to do these things yourself without proper representation, you could end up in court and that may cost you way more than you bargained for.  Also, some companies charge upfront fees which are non-refundable, or hold you into long term contracts. 

 

At The Home Store Realty, we offer the same high quality service as other companies for a listing fee of just 2% when you purchase your next home with us*. This is for a full-service listing, not an 'assist-to-sell' program where you are expected to do some of the work yourself or try to sift through complicated contracts or closing processes.  There are no hidden fees or additional charges, and with our 24-hour cancellation you are never held down to a long listing contract.  Our motto is simple:  

 

We make your home sale process smooth sailing from contract to closing!
