FLAT FEE MLS Arkansas

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 Arkansas 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 Arkansas 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 Arkansas MLS company suggested. When you pick your own title company, your Flat Fee company has to coordinate well with that title company. Think of the fee like paying extra for Delta catfish—sure, the regular's fine, but the upgrade makes the whole meal better.
• Cancellation or Listing Removal Fees—$50 to $100: You thought this was your dream sale, but now it feels like a bad Tinder date. If you decide to take your listing down early or cancel it, most Flat Fee MLS Arkansas 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 living room looks bigger in the picture, but it’s giving off more of a ‘too many chairs, not enough space’ than ‘cozy family hangout.’ To glow up your listing by adding or swapping out professional photos, you will have to spend $25 to $75 in Arkansas. The fees depend on how many photos you need to upload.
• Listing Price Update—$25 to $50: Well, that price was as high as the Ozark mountains, but buyers are looking for something a little more down-to-earth. Time to drop that price before your house becomes an Ozark ghost town. Arkansas 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 your ‘updated bathroom’ ‘spa-like,’ but now you realize it’s more like ‘adequate for a quick shower.’ A Flat Fee MLS Arkansas provider will charge you $20 to $50 per feature change.
• Addendum Fees—$25 to $50: The plumber just told you that your ‘updated bathroom’ has a ‘small, but extremely expensive plumbing issue.’ So much for ‘move-in ready.’ 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 thought your open house was perfect until the neighbor’s cows decided to take a leisurely stroll through your yard. If you want to add or update details to reschedule an open house event, expect to pay around $25 to $50 to your Arkansas Flat Fee MLS listing service.
• Description Update Fees—$20 to $40: You called it a ‘spacious master suite,’ but it’s really ‘a box with a bed and claustrophobia.’ Time to update—no one’s buying a ‘suite’ that’s an ‘interior design tragedy.’ It's time for a description update, but you can’t do it for free with some Arkansas Flat Fee MLS listing services. You’ll have to spend $20 to $40 for each update.
