The ValueList 'Flat-fee' listing program is unique to the St. Louis real estate market.  It works like this; Whereas a conventional real estate company generally charges a percentage commission (generally in the 6-7 percent range) to sell a residential piece of real estate in St. Louis, ValueList only charges a 'Flat-fee' for the listing side of the commission. In the event that another real estate agency sells the listing, the home-seller would pay the selling agency a 'sales commission' of approximately 3% (Depending on the asking price of your home, you may be able to get away with paying as little as 2.7%).

If you compare paying the ValueList 'Flat-fee' and a 3% selling commission to paying any other St. Louis real estate company's conventional percentage based commission, you'll see that ValueList Real Estate Services is anywhere from 35 to 55 percent less expensive.

In the event where ValueList both lists and sells the property, then the home-seller is only charged the listing fee and a "sales commission" equal to the listing fee. When you compare this to any conventional St. Louis real estate company, ValueList can save you as much as 85%!

So, what do you get for your money? Well, in exchange for paying the ValueList 'Flat-fee', which is a commission payable at closing (there is nothing paid upfront.  If ValueList doesn't produce, then ValueList doesn't get paid) the home-seller receives all of the services that a conventional St. Louis real estate company generally provides and then some!

Specifically, ValueList Real Estate Services;

1. Places and maintains the yard sign, lists the home for sale on the local Multiple Listing Service (thereby making the home available to all of the other Realtors in the St. Louis real estate market)
2. Lists your home on Homes.com, Realtor.com, Zillow.com, Craigslist.com, AOL.com, MSN.com, The Backpage.com, as well as a number of other real estate portals and websites.
3. Fields all telephone calls regarding the property.
4. If desired, ValueList will hold your home open a reasonable number of times (Any accompanying newspaper advertising is the responsibility of the home owner.)
5. Shows the property to prospective purchasers.
6. Sets appointment for other real estate agents.
7. Helps to negotiate all offers on the property.
8. And once an offer is accepted, ValueList takes care of all of the details to get that transaction to the closing table!

In short, ValueList is a full-service real estate company!
