Homie sellers pay a low flat fee, which varies by state. Our listing agents are salaried and don’t rely on high commissions to make a living. See how much you’ll save by selling with Homie here. If the buyer of the home is also represented by Homie, the seller pays a buyer transaction fee at closing instead of a huge percentage-based commission. If the buyer is represented by a traditional agent, you will need to decide how much to offer them in buyer agent commission (BAC). This is typically 2.5 to 3% of the price of the home, but it’s up to you. We don’t like it either, but it’s how you incentivize other agents to bring buyers to your home.

In addition to our flat listing fee, there are a few additional costs involved in most real estate transactions. As a seller, you can expect to pay:

• Buyer’s agent commission (if you list on the MLS)
• Title/escrow fees
• Concessions
• Warranties
• Other negotiated costs

If you have any questions about these fees, ask your dedicated agent to help you break down the cost.

The market fluctuates in different cities, throughout the months, and even during world events. Our goal is to sell your home as fast as possible for as much money as possible. In fact, an independent study found that Homie homes sold faster and for more money than comparable homes listed by traditional agents. You can read the results of the study here.

Professional photography is included as part of the flat fee you pay to sell with Homie. You will be contacted to set up the photography appointment, usually within 48 hours of starting the process. Your stunning photos will really highlight your beautiful home.

We recommend having our professional photographer come out. This service is included and you’ll have even more good shots to choose from. If you have certain photos of your home that you’d like to use, you can send a shareable Dropbox or Google Drive link to [email protected] and we will include them in your listing and online ads.

As part of our flat fee, a listing on the local multiple listing service (MLS) is included and most sellers opt to be listed in order to increase visibility and traffic to the home. Some areas in Utah, Arizona, Denver, and Nevada are outside of Homie’s MLS coverage but you may be able to list with us still. Contact [email protected] to find out exactly which MLS services Homie uses.

If you choose to list your home on the MLS, you decide how much of a BAC you are willing to pay. The typical BAC ranges from 2-3% but there is no standard. Many sellers choose to offer a commission to buyers’ agents to get as many potential buyers in the door as possible. If you receive and accept an offer from a non-Homie buyer, you would pay whatever commission you promised to pay on the MLS.

The MLS requires a percentage of compensation to buyer’s agents if the home is listed on the MLS because they bring buyers. You can choose not to list on the MLS if you don’t want to, just ask your dedicated listing agent about what that requires.

A buyer’s lender will usually require an appraisal of your home to confirm the market value prior to funding the loan.

You can show your home in one of three states: 1) as is; 2) empty; or 3) staged. If you’re not sure what you should do, your dedicated Homie real estate agent can offer you guidance. Even if you don’t professionally stage your home, decluttering, cleaning, and simplifying your design will make your home look fresh for potential buyers.

Home sellers are invited to host an open house if they would like to. You can ask your agent for our open house kit that will come with everything you need to make it successful. Open houses are optional.

No! A buyer’s agent will bring potential buyers to your home. You do not have to be there to let them in or show them around. You will receive a text when a buyer wants to schedule a time to see your home. You can choose to accept the tour or reschedule it.

In a hot seller market, it’s not uncommon to receive two or more offers. Your Homie real estate agent will walk you through the offers and point out the pros and cons of each. With more than one offer, you can choose to respond to all open offers by telling interested parties to submit their highest and best offers. At this point, you can choose the offer that works best for you. Your agent will help you manage all of the back and forth.

Most offers include a response deadline of several hours to several days. We’ll help you through the entire process.
