Did you know that the only way a commission would actually be 6–7% is if you own your property "free and clear?" Since commissions are only taken from your equity position, when you owe on a mortgage, the commission percentage is unbelievably higher!
See for yourself: in the example below, you can see how much of a seller's equity a traditional "listing agent" takes away at closing! Just enter a sale price, mortgage remaining, and a commission percentage and hit "Calculate".
Real Estate By Owner of Maine (No Commission) was launched in 1991. Since then, over 3,000 properties have been SOLD by our customers. Many of those people have resold subsequent properties multiple times. We have all the data to help you set the price right, plus we have all the necessary legal documents to complete the real estate deal from listing to closing. Our customers proudly boast that they would never do it any other way, ever again! To learn why, see By-Owner Savings & Strategy.
Statewide MLS Option (Owners Realty) was launched in 2002. We were Maine's first agency to drastically discount commissions AND allow the owner to sell it themselves with even more of a discount! The Statewide MLS (yes, the same one all Maine real estate agents use) and Realtor.com is now accessible to by-owner sellers for a fraction of the traditional commission rate!
