December 30, 2003 I wanted to thank you for your service, your cooperation, and suggestions on selling our home “By Owner” in Palm Desert, with your MLS program. THIS REALLY WORKS.! A Real Estate Broker brought us a client the SAME DAY the listing hit the MLS. We had an offer that evening, for our full listed price ! The process of listing our home was very simple. Everything was concluded by phone, fax, and Email. We saved a lot of money . . . the “Listing Broker would have normally charged us over $13,000 to place our home in the MLS. Of course they may have done additional things, but I know that your instructions on how to sell your property “By Owner” were very comprehensive. Our case may have been an exception, but the process cannot help but save $$$ for your clients. Sincerely, Marshall and Penny Oseas *** February 9, 2004 Tony, Thanks for your great service. I believe it really helped having my house on the MLS, and you made it a lot more affordable. Thanks again. Jon Fraser *** March 25, 2004 Tony, Thanks. I finally got (name redacted) 's message. It is a better offer, but unfortunately I had already accepted the first offer, which is contingent on a 1031 exchange. You have a great service and by "doing it myself" I saved some $42,000! Thanks, Brian White |
The Internet has changed everything. What used to be the jealously guarded privilege of the real estate community is now yours! Until recently, the only way to get your home maximum market exposure, which is on the Multiple Listing Service, was to enter into a very expensive, "all-or-nothing" listing agreement.
Why is that? Well, the fact is that the vast majority of buyers use a Realtor® to make the purchase. And every Palm Springs Desert Area Realtor® uses the Desert Area Multiple Listing Service to locate the right home for his/her buyer. And, until very recently, access to the MLS was restricted to Realtors®.
But now, since the Desert Area MLS has been put on the Internet, anyone looking for a home has access to the MLS, without going through an agent! Click on the Search the Desert Area MLS for Listings link at left and see for yourself. Follow the Search Tips and take the search engine for a test drive.
It's all about exposure! The Palm Springs Desert Area is a highly desired destination for second homes, retirement homes, and simple relocations. And now millions of people from all around the country can search the local MLS listings for what they want. All they have to do is log on to popular national sites like these:

So, if you are selling "By Owner" in the Palm Springs Desert Area, doesn't it just make sense to get your home listed on the MLS, where the buyers are looking and without paying a commission ... if only you could?
Well, now you can! The "one-size-fits-all" 6% listing is history!
Maximize exposure for your home for big savings!
You can "open list" your home on the Desert Area MLS for a flat fee and only pay a, say, 2% to 3% commission (whatever you decide) to the Selling Agent on close of escrow, instead of the 6% listing commission that is so commonly insisted upon in the industry, even though all commissions are negotiable. Of course, if you obtain the buyer on your own, you save the commission altogether!
Q: Is this $485 flat fee good value?
A1: Do the math. Our flat rate listing fee is $485.00 for six months, including a Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) and access to our library of information and documentation. A small 3-line advertisement in the classified section of the local paper is approximately $17.50 per day. If you were to run a 3-line ad at $17.50 for 180 days, the cost would be $3,150.00.
A2: Think of the exposure! Your home is not just buried in the classifieds. Rather, the entire local real estate community, representing thousands of buyers, plus the general public are actually using the MLS daily to search for a property like yours. Our flat rate listing fee is tremendous value for money.
A3: Compare the expenditure of $485 with saving 3% or more of your hard-earned equity.A4: This low flat rate listing fee entitles you to a CMA and unlimited FREE access to our exclusive library of real estate transaction information and documentation PLUS a whole raft of FSBO tips and resources.
