FLAT FEE MLS Indiana

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 Indiana companies claim to list your home on the market for $99 or lower. The appeal is real, but your savings will not 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 Indiana 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 Indiana MLS company suggested. When you pick your own title company, your Flat Fee company has to coordinate well with that title company. It’s like bringing your own ketchup to a BBQ, then paying the BBQ master to critique it.
• Cancellation or Listing Removal Fees—$50 to $100: Ever find yourself sitting in the wrong theater, wondering how you got there? If you decide to pull your listing before it’s sold, you might face a cancellation fee. Most Flat Fee MLS services will charge between $50 and $100 for removing your listing early. It’s like buying a ticket to a show you don’t want to see—you're paying the exit fee to make a quick escape!
• Photo Update Fees—$25 to $75: Your kitchen’s best feature was taken at the wrong angle, and now it shows more of your dishwasher than the countertops. In Indiana, you will have to spend $25 to $75 to upgrade your listing by adding or swapping out professional photos. The fee depends on how many photos you need to upload.
• Listing Price Update—$25 to $50: That price tag was higher than a Hoosier hog roast, but it turns out your house is a little too fancy for what the locals are craving. Indiana 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 called it a ‘cozy kitchen’ in Indiana, but now it’s looking more like a claustrophobic corner where you can’t swing a spatula. Need to update the feature? A Flat Fee MLS Indiana provider will charge you about $20 to $50 per change.
• Addendum Fees—$25 to $50: You called your ‘perfectly maintained kitchen’ a dream, but your fridge is older than Indiana cornfields, running on expired warranties and hope. Expect to pay between $25 and $50 to add disclosures, inspection reports, or other documents to your listing after it’s posted on the MLS (per document).
• Open House Updates—$25 to $50: Your open house was set, but then the bathroom pipe became a floodgate, drenching the kitchen like a scene from Indiana Jones. Need to reschedule? Expect to pay around $25 to $50 to your Indiana Flat-Fee MLS listing service.
• Description Update Fees—$20 to $40: You described your bathroom as having a ‘vintage charm’, but now you realize it’s more of a ‘vintage nightmare with plumbing issues that give you anxiety’. It's time for a description update, but you can’t do it for free with some Indiana Flat Fee MLS listing services. You’ll have to spend $20 to $40 for each update.
