FLAT FEE MLS Idaho

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 Idaho 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 Idaho 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 Idaho 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 paying for a personal shopper—you could do it yourself, but you're paying to get everything just right.
• Cancellation or Listing Removal Fees—$50 to $100: You had high hopes that your home would sell faster, but now it feels like hiking up a mountain only to realize you took the wrong trail. If you decide to take your listing down early or cancel it, most Flat Fee MLS Idaho 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: You thought that photo of the living room captured the ‘rustic charm,’ but now it just looks like the aftermath of an Idaho snowstorm. To glow up your listing by adding or swapping out professional photos, you will have to spend $25 to $75 in Idaho. The fees depend on how many photos you need to upload.
• Listing Price Update—$25 to $50: That price was about as inflated as a mountain hike in Sun Valley. Time to bring it back to earth before you get stuck in the Boise real estate avalanche. Idaho 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 ‘cozy kitchen’ a ‘chef’s dream.’ Now it feels more like ‘a sardine can with a fridge and a microwave.’ A real culinary paradise, right? A Flat Fee MLS Idaho provider will charge you $20 to $50 per feature change.
• Addendum Fees—$25 to $50: You called your home ‘move-in ready,’ but that ‘cozy’ carpet screams “cats lived here.” 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 open house, but then Idaho’s weather decided to dump half of the Rockies on your driveway. If you want to add or update details to reschedule an open house event, expect to pay around $25 to $50 to your Idaho Flat Fee MLS listing service.
• Description Update Fees—$20 to $40: You called it a ‘spacious garage,’ but it's really just storage for two lawnmowers, an old fridge, and years of regret. It's time for a description update—but you can’t do it for free with some Idaho Flat Fee MLS listing services. You’ll have to spend $20 to $40 for each update.
