FLAT FEE MLS Minnesota

Hidden Fees? Not with Houzeo

Houzeo doesn’t believe in hidden fees and discloses all the costs upfront. Transparency is in our DNA. Several Flat Fee MLS Minnesota companies claim to list your home on the market for $99 or lower. The appeal is real, but your savings won’t last long. You may have to pay for every little change you need to make to your listing. A few sneaky fees might pop up when you’re at the closing table. Always read the terms and conditions page of the Minnesota Flat Fee MLS service you choose.

Here’s a rundown of some things you might end up paying for:

• Title Company Referral Fee—$50 to $200: Companies like Flat Fee MLS Realty and several others get a referral fee from title companies. This fee is from the monies you pay. If you select your option, you’ll be forced to pay a “Coordination” fee. It’s like paying a “convenience fee” for not using the free ATM. There are several other junk fees associated with choosing your own title service.
• Coordination Fee—$50 to $200: You’re paying for the privilege of not using the title company your Flat Fee Minnesota MLS company suggested. When you pick your own title company, your Flat Fee company has to coordinate well with that title company. Think of it like asking for your hunting permit at the last minute—it’s a hassle, but the outcome’s worth it.
• Cancellation or Listing Removal Fees—$50 to $100: Your listing in Minnesota was like a Vikings season ticket—you thought you’d get the good stuff, but now it feels like you’re leaving at halftime when it’s still 0–3. If you decide to take your listing down early or cancel it, most Flat Fee MLS Minnesota services will charge a removal fee. Depending on the company's policy, this can range from $50 to $100 or more.
• Photo Updates Fees—$25 to $75: Your kitchen photo was taken at a bad angle and made your place look like a Duluth disaster zone. To glow up your listing by adding or swapping out professional photos, you will have to spend $25 to $75 in Minnesota. The fees depend on how many photos you need to upload.
• Listing Price Update—$25 to $50: You posted your Minnesota home like it was Lake Minnetonka royalty, but now it’s looking like the Duluth junk. Considering a price drop? Minnesota Flat Fee Services will charge you a fee if you need to adjust the asking price after it’s live. Depending on the provider, this fee can range from $25 to $50 per change.
• Feature Changes—$20 to $50: You turned your attic into a third bedroom, but the listing still says ‘unfinished’? That’s like saying the Mall of America is just ‘a few stores.’ Need to make that update? A Flat Fee MLS Minnesota provider will charge you $20 to $50 per feature change.
• Addendum Fees—$25 to $50: You priced your Minnesota house like Lake Minnetonka, but buyers are wondering why your Duluth basement looks straight out of a horror movie. Expect to pay between $25 to $50 for adding disclosures, inspection reports, or other docs to your listing after it’s posted on the MLS (per document).
• Open House Updates—$25 to $50: You planned the perfect Saturday open house—until the construction down the street turned parking into a distant dream. If you want to add or update details to reschedule an open house event, expect to pay around $25 to $50 to your Minnesota Flat Fee MLS listing service.
• Description Update Fees—$20 to $40: You called your Minnesota house ‘spacious,’ but now you’re just hoping the buyer doesn't trip over the uneven floors. Need a description change? but you can’t do it for free with some Minnesota Flat Fee MLS listing services. You’ll have to spend $20 to $40 for each update.
