FLAT FEE LISTING SERVICE

$400

ONLY Tennessee licensed real estate agents can advertise property listings on the MLS in Tennessee! If you are not a licensed agent, NO MLS will allow you to input listings into their system.

For Sale By Owner listings are strictly prohibited UNLESS listed by a Realtor.

BRYAN REALTY OF EAST TENNESSEE IS A FULL SERVICE, LICENSED TENNESSEE REAL ESTATE AGENCY ALSO PROVIDING FLAT FEE LISTING SERVICES TO SELLERS NOT WANTING TO USE TRADITIONAL REAL ESTATE METHODS.

Why pay to list your property on websites only to have your information sold to area agents as part of a lead generation program? Most FSBO websites claim to list your property in the local MLS. These FSBO websites are not licensed agencies and therefore must farm your information out to licensed agents who can legally submit your listing into the local MLS.

Don’t pay 6% compensation if you don’t have to! List your property for one flat fee on the same MLS all local East Tennessee agents and brokers use every day. We also offer optional services as well that can be added to your listing. We offer traditional listing service at very competitive rates as well for sellers needing assistance with negotiation, document reviews, etc.

You will deal with a real person who knows and understands the real estate industry in the Smoky Mountain area. We are also life long East Tennessee residents!

Today’s buyers are much more tech savvy and won’t begin their property search in a local newspaper, walking in to a real estate office or driving through neighborhoods. That’s not to say no one checks the classifieds for real estate for sale in Sevierville TN. I’m just saying that most do not.

Latest statistics show that 90% of buyers shop for homes for sale in Maryville TN, cabins for sale in Pigeon Forge TN or lake property for sale in Sevierville TN online using searches for certain keywords or phrases. This is the #1 reason why people need their property listed online for the world to see. Most buyers will be from out of town and won’t read the local newspaper to see your ad or drive by your property to see your “For Sale” sign.

How Flat Fee Listing Works

Flat Fee MLS listings are similar to traditional real estate listings with one exception; they are Non-Exclusive Right to Sell listings. This means Bryan Realty of East Tennessee is technically the listing agency BUT the seller has the right to advertise and sell the property as well. It also means that Bryan Realty is only a facilitator in any potential purchase transaction unless specified in writing otherwise.

Process:

Seller orders the listing package
Seller signs all listing documents and submits to Bryan Realty (in a timely manner) as instructed
Seller makes payment by either Venmo, Credit Card or Check (14 day hold on checks) All major credit cards accepted - processing fees apply
Once payment has been accepted and processed, the listing is added to the MLS
Receipt/confirmation is emailed to seller
Seller emails digital photos of property for MLS
A yard sign is ordered for the property with Seller’s contact information on it. Sign will be placed on the property by either the seller or Michele Bryan.
Listings are syndicated through the MLS onto hundreds of real estate websites at the sole discretion of the MLS association. Bryan Realty of East Tennessee has no control over the syndication by MLS.
A single property website is created for the listing. Website address is provided to the seller for sharing on Social Media, etc.

Other services such as Virtual Video Tours, etc are optional services that may be added to the listing package for an additional fee.

Yard signs have seller’s contact number and listing MLS # along with the agency’s name and number as mandated by the Tennessee Real Estate Commission. All phone calls, emails or text inquiries are immediately forwarded to the seller for follow up.
