Flat Fee Listing (with buyers coop) or pay full 6% listing agent
I'm finishing up a rehab and need to get it listed. I can either pay a flat fee of $500 for MLS listing + 3% to the buyers agent, or I can pay a listing agent the full 6%.
From what I can tell, there isn't that much a difference. I wouldn't get open houses which I'd like but how much is that worth? or any hand-holding/help negotiating which I don't think I need. But being out of state, it would be nice to have someone check up on the house. I was thinking I might be able to pay someone to check up on the house that would be a lot cheaper.
What would you do? Thoughts?
