Full Service Tennessee Flat Fee MLS

Full Service Flat Fee MLS


Many sellers assume that flat fee listing services don't include full-service support from a licensed Tennessee broker—but we do, and at an unbeatable price!

Here's what you can expect from our full-service package: As soon as an offer comes in, you'll receive it instantly via email and in your client dashboard. We'll also provide a detailed breakdown of your estimated closing costs. Then, we'll schedule a phone call to review the offer thoroughly and give you expert advice and feedback.

In addition, we'll handle all negotiations with the buyer's agent on your behalf until a mutually agreeable deal is reached. Once the contract is finalized, we'll set you up for eSign, send it to the title company, and manage any repair agreements for you.

Why don't all sellers utilize a Flat Fee MLS service?

Many people mistakenly believe that Flat Fee MLS listings are different from those offered by traditional real estate agents. In truth, they operate in the same way. The key benefit of our Flat Fee Service is that it allows you to sell your home while saving a substantial amount of money.

Flat fee services are more common than you might think — many sellers use them, but it's not always obvious since all listings look alike to buyers and agents.

There are two main reasons sellers may hesitate to choose a Flat Fee Service. Some simply aren't aware that it's an available option, while others may question its legitimacy or worry they won't receive the same level of service as they would from a traditional agent charging a 6% commission.

With a bit of research, you'll see that flat fee listings are one of the smartest ways to sell a home. Best Choice Flat Fee is a top national provider, offering local expertise through experienced brokers.

How Does Flat Fee MLS Work?

Flat Fee Sign
Flat Fee MLS Only allows homeowners to list their property on the Multiple Listing Service for a fixed price, eliminating the need for traditional commission-based agents. This approach gives sellers direct access to agents and potential buyers while maintaining full control over the transaction, often resulting in significant cost savings. It's especially suited for individuals confident in managing the selling process on their own.

Full Service Flat Fee MLS offers all the advantages of traditional real estate services but for a flat rate. This option includes extensive support such as marketing, coordination of showings, and assistance with negotiations, helping sellers navigate the process more easily while reducing typical commission expenses. It's a great fit for those who want professional help but still wish to save money.

Susanne Flynn is the designated Tennessee broker for Best Choice Flat Fee. While many flat fee MLS websites operate as referral services that simply pass your listing to a local broker—often without prior consultation - Best Choice Flat Fee stands apart. It allows you to connect directly with your local broker and even interview them before listing your property, ensuring a more transparent and personalized experience.

Standard sign included. Premium sign is an upgrade.

FSBO Flat Fee MLS Listing


List your property on the MLS as for sale by owner while still collaborating with real estate agents. This hybrid strategy offers the advantages of both worlds—maximum exposure through the MLS that agents use, while allowing you to save on traditional commission fees. By avoiding listing agent costs and negotiating directly with buyers, you can potentially increase your overall profit.

Sellers now have the option to list on the MLS and offer a 0% commission to buyer agents. With real estate commissions now negotiable, and new NAR rules prohibiting the display of buyer agent commissions on the MLS, you have greater flexibility in structuring your sale terms.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click on a question below to see the answer.

If you have ever listed on the MLS, then you have listed this way.
Sometimes sellers think they are doing something different, but this is not the case.
We are listing on the same local MLS as any other agent, but instead of charging a 3% commission at closing we are charging you a low flat fee,
We have "unbundled" our services. You pay for the service that fits your needs. We are your listing agent. Your listing will look the same, as all other listings. How much you pay us to list is not mentioned on the MLS. The only commission listed on the MLS, is how much you are offering to pay the buyer or leasing agent.
You are not listing your property yourself.
We are your listing agent, but instead of working for a high commission, we are working for a flat fee. We provide all the same services as any agent. There is only one REALTOR® MLS in your area, and this is where we will be listing your property.
Depending on the listing package, we can help you with pricing, contract review and contract negotiations. We are full service agents. We have done traditional 6% real estate in the past, but do it this way, because it is a fantastic service.

We  are your listing agent, however if a buyer comes to you directly as a FSBO - FOR SALE BY OWNER you can sell to them and not pay a buyer agent commission, but we are still your listing agent and still here to help you with the process (depending on listing package)
Our success rate is 100% when clients listen to our advice.
We have been doing this for many years and provide you all the tools for a successful sell, but ultimately the sell of your property depends on what you do. If you overprice your property, there is no magic any agent can do.

We have been doing this many years and sold thousands and thousands of properties. The only commission agents care about is theirs. How much they are offered is posted on the MLS. The listing agent commission is not posted on the MLS. You decide how much you are going to offer the buyer's agent. You are not a FSBO on the MLS. Your listing looks just like all other listings.

More FAQs

Click on a question below to see the answer.

Please call and interview us and the competition. Compare for yourself.
What you will find with us is that you are talking directly with the broker that will be listing your property. We are the listing broker and care about you and our business. Many companies you find on the internet are 3rd party referral sites and not even located in your state.  We have been REALTORS® for years and even sold real estate the traditional 6% way. We know the flat fee way is better and the reason we do listings this way.
The full service package includes a professional photographer.  The other DIY packages you upload your own photos.  You can also purchase the add on for a photographer on our website if desired.  We recommend professional photos!
Normally within 1-2 business days.
You sign up online, you will be directed to the listing steps and once you get all the forms/photos back to us we can get you listed.
If a buyer comes to you directly, without a buyer's agent, there will be NO buyer agent commission and NO more commission due to us. However most buyers do work with agents. 
No, you do not have to pay a 3% buyer agent commission (BAC).
We recommend that you offer a 3% BAC, however you may offer less if you like. Many agents will still show your property, but some will not and could put them in a  "bad frame of mind."
The key to selling is the Price. If you offer a 3% BAC, but if you overprice your property, it will not sell. The number of showings you get is not a function of agents wanting to show, it is a function of buyers wanting to look.
We do not list for less than 2% commission.
