Flat Rate Companies

As you may know, there appears to be a lot of Flat Rate MLS companies on the internet. Deciding which is the best can be quite overwhelming. Many are simple 3rd party facilitators and not actual real estate agencies. Here is what to look for:

Carolina Listing Express	Other Companies
We are an actual Real Estate agency, licensed for your area. We are the company that will list you in the MLS area you choose.	They typically charge you anywhere from $400 to $600 dollars, then transfer you to an unknown 3rd party Real Estate company.
Major Tip! The number one thing to look for in a flat fee company is to make sure that the company you are listing with is a fully licensed Real Estate company.A lot of "flat fee companies" are simply go-betweens. They are unlicensed, and have no ability to list you in the MLS system. They may simply take your money and refer you to an unknown real Real Estate company. This can create difficulties if problems arise. Carolina Premium Properties, is a reputable, licensed, real estate company with full membership in your local Realtors® MLS. We will list your home and be here to help you from start to finish with strong customer support.
Once your listing information is received from our website, it goes into the MLS usually the same business day!	Many days may go by before an unknown company lists you.
You are assured of a high-quality listing from a very reputable real estate company.	You are rarely assured of a high quality listing and may not know who your real estate company will be.
We have no hidden costs.	Additional undisclosed servicing fees may surprise you!
You have unlimited, free customer support via email with Carolina Listing Express.com whenever you need it. The Broker is also available via pager whenever you need her.	They may give you the runaround. If they are not a licensed Real Estate company, they won't know anything about your listing.
We offer you the proper Realtor® lockbox and marketing materials for your area.	They usually offer you generic lockboxes and signs that only contain their phone number, not yours.
Major Tip! A typical marketing ploy is the offering of free lockboxes and signs with your listing. 3rd party facilitators do not have the ability to provide the proper Realtor® approved lockbox. Incompatible "free" lockboxes are useless because local agent's keypads will not work in them. Furthermore, most MLS systems restrict the use of non-authorized lockboxes on properties listed in the MLS system. Carolina Listing Express lockboxes are authorized by your local MLS system. And, our signs never display our telephone number, instead there is a place for your number. We want you to get all the calls.
We pass on all internet and phone leads to you.  Since we only list homes we will assist you in every way possible to help you sell your home.	They may never pass on internet leads to you. Other companies may try to sell the home themselves to earn a selling commission or try to get new listing leads from potential buyers.
