Hidden Fees? Not with ÀÖ¾ºÌåÓýÈüÊÂÖ±²¥

ÀÖ¾ºÌåÓýÈüÊÂÖ±²¥ doesn’t believe in hidden fees and discloses all the costs upfront. Transparency is in our DNA. Several Flat Fee MLS Vermont companies claim to list your home on the market for $99 or lower. The appeal is real, but your savings will not last long. You may have to pay for every little change you need to make to your listing. A few sneaky fees might pop up when you’re at the closing table. Always read the terms and conditions page of the Vermont Flat Fee MLS service you choose.

Here’s a rundown of some things you might end up paying for:

• Title Company Referral Feeâ€�$50 to $200: Companies like Flat Fee MLS Realty and several others get a referral fee from title companies. This fee is from the monies you pay. If you select your option, you’ll be forced to pay a “Coordinationâ€� fee. It’s like paying a “convenience feeâ€� for not using the free ATM. There are several other junk fees associated with choosing your own title service.
• Coordination Feeâ€�$50 to $200: You’re paying for the privilege of not using the title company your Flat Fee Vermont MLS company suggested. When you pick your own title company, your Flat Fee company has to coordinate well with that title company. It's like picking your own Vermont maple syrup and still getting charged for ‘expertâ€� help.
• Cancellation or Listing Removal Feesâ€�$50 to $100: You thought this was your dream sale, but now it feels like buying tickets for a concert and realizing it’s just karaoke night at a dive bar. If you decide to take your listing down early or cancel it, most Flat Fee MLS Vermont services will charge a removal fee. Depending on the company's policy, this can range from $50 to $100 or more.
• Photo Update Feesâ€�$25 to $75: You focused too much on the interiors and missed the lush backyard, which is the real showstopper. In Vermont, you must spend $25 to $75 to upgrade your listing by adding or swapping out professional photos. The fees depend on how many photos you need to upload.
• Listing Price Updateâ€�$25 to $50: You thought your house was a Vermont treasure, but now it’s more like an overripe apple in the orchard. Time to lower the price? Vermont Flat Fee Services will charge you a fee if you need to adjust the asking price after it’s live. Depending on the provider, this fee can range from $25 to $50 per change.
• Feature Changesâ€�$20 to $50: You thought your backyard was 'well-maintained,' but it's just a patch of dead grass. To update it, a Flat Fee MLS Vermont provider will charge you $20 to $50 per feature change.
• Addendum Feesâ€�$25 to $50: You thought you had everything under control, but now it’s like calling Vermont’s snow ‘charmingâ€� while you’re knee-deep in water in your basement. If you need to add disclosures, inspection reports, or other documents to your listing after it’s live on the MLS, expect to pay a fee between $25 and $50 per document.
• Open House Updatesâ€�$25 to $50: You thought your open house was all set, but then your water heater started leaking. If you want to add or update details to reschedule an open house event, expect to pay around $25 to $50 to your Vermont Flat Fee MLS listing service.
• Description Update Feesâ€�$20 to $40: You thought your Vermont cabin was ‘charming,â€� but now it’s more like ‘charming if you enjoy getting a sunburn from the gaps in the windows. It's time for a description update—but you can’t do it for free with some Vermont Flat Fee MLS listing services. You’ll have to spend $20 to $40 for each update.
