This unique Realtor® direct email service will get your commission offer of 4% or to those Florida Realtors® living or working within 35 miles of your Florida property for sale twice per month. In Florida, there are more than 145,000 Realtors® competing for sales. Getting flat fee MLS listed by ADDvantage™ using the Street Smart ADDvantage® plan is one easy step toward getting your Florida flat fee MLS listing sent right to the powerful sales force of the Florida Realtors®. Street Smart ADDvantage® was designed to help Florida flat fee MLS sellers reach these Realtors® in a professional email.
Florida Realtors® live on commissions so as far as they're concerned, the more the better. The Street Smart ADDvantage® concept is based on three principles. One, Florida Realtors® will show higher commission properties over similar properties for sale; Two, a Florida flat fee MLS seller is not paying a listing commission (6% full service) which allows them, especially in a buyers market, to offer the buyer's agent a commission amount higher than what is considered to be average. In Florida, the average buyer's agent commission is near 2.7%. The third principle on why Street Smart ADDvantage® is more effective for Florida flat fee MLS sellers is that commission is generally cheaper than price. This concept is best explained by looking at the average Florida home price of $250,000. A seller offering 6% commission in a full service listing would pay $15,000. Your typical Florida flat fee MLS seller pays about 3% or $7,500 to only one side (the buyer's agent). 1% commission on a $250,000 home is $2,500. If the Florida flat fee MLS seller offers 4% commission to the buyer's agent rather than 3%, the extra 1% would costs the seller $2,500. The theory that commission is cheaper than price is fully understood when one realizes that once an offer comes in and negotiations start, $5,000-$10,000 would be the minimum price increments in negotiating an offer…which is higher than $2500.
A Florida flat fee MLS seller listing their property in Street Smart ADDvantage® must offer 4% or higher buyer's agent commission (all going to the buyer's agent, none to the Florida flat fee MLS service, ADDvantage™). The 4% minimum commission is the reason why Realtors® anticipate the arrival of each bi-monthly Street Smart ADDvantage® Realtor® E-Blast…it brings good news every two weeks.
