If you're selling your home for sale by owner (FSBO) in Las Vegas, hiring a flat-fee MLS service can help you increase your listing's visibility without breaking the bank.
The average commission rate for full-service listing agents in Sin City is approximately 3%. Based on the median sale price for Las Vegas homes, as of January 2020, that translates to about $8,550.
In contrast, typical rates for flat-fee MLS companies in Las Vegas are in between $99 and $3,995. Nationwide, the most basic plans can be as low as $50 to $99, while more comprehensive services range upwards of $1,000 to $3,000.
It's important to remember that every Las Vegas flat-fee MLS service is different. When evaluating offerings, be sure to read the fine print: look at things like the length of the listing term (and how much it costs to extend); whether there's a fee to make changes to your listing; how many photos are allowed; the policy on buyer's agent commission; and more.
