Your Responsibilities

The marketing aspect of a MLS By Owner sales arrangement is very similar to a typical full-price listing. You get your property posted in the MLS, on Realtor.com, on the company's web site and dozens more. You get a yard sign, sales flyers, etc. We can even help with local newspaper ads if you want them.

Do-it-yourself MLS, with help!

The big differences between MLS By Owner and full-price contracts involve showings and the handling of offers-to-purchase and closing procedures. Full-price companies generally charge 5-7% commissions to attend to these matters. With MLS By Owner, sellers are in charge of scheduling showing appointments, hosting an open house, handling offers and managing the closing. Alternatively, if you wish, you can contract on an hourly basis with Sunlit Realty to manage some of these matters.

Sellers can choose to receive and negotiate offers themselves, hire Sunlit Realty to assist them, or employ an attorney or other competent professional. The same goes for closing requirements. A local title company, attorney or Sunlit Realty agent can make this happen. All this is accomplished with you in charge of the deal, and you still realize a substantial financial savings compared to a typical full-price sales commission.

Scheduling showings for buyers directly is not much different from scheduling showings with an agent acting as the go-between. Either way, you need to take the calls and set up days and times for buyers to see your property. Most showings will be scheduled by agents working with buyers, and you can decide whether you want to be at the house or not when the showing occurs.

Additional Seller Services Offered by Sunlit Realty

If you desire expanded marketing assistance, or want help with contract negotiations and closing, Sunlit Realty offers the following discount fee-based services:

  • Offer-to-Purchase Contract Negotiation Assistance
  • Contingency Monitoring & Settlement Assistance (with a real estate attorney present at your closing)
  • Virtual Home Tour Slideshows & Home Tour Videos (for posting on YouTube, the MLS, SunlitByOwner.com and other property search sites)
  • Custom "New Listing" Postcards (mailed to area residents)
  • HSA Home Warranty (covers seller for one year before closing, and buyers for one year after closing — paid at closing) (a good marketing bonus)
