Q: CO-BROKE REFERRAL FEE? WHAT IS THAT? I PAY THE
TENANTS AGENT?
A: Yes. In order to
place your property into the Multiple Listing Service you need to
offer a referral Fee to the Realtor that brings and shows your home to
the Tenant. The Tenants agent in Florida Gets Paid by the Seller. If you
don't offer a Referral Fee, Realtors don't show your home to their qualified
Tenants! You can offer an amount in the form of a commission or a Flat
Fee. We Highly recommend at the lowest, a $200 Referral Fee. Just like
your Home's Rental Price should be competitive with other homes, your
Referral to Buyer Agents should be too. The standard Referral Fee for
Residential Homes is $200.00. You can offer more, and you can
even offer a Percentage of the Rent, like 10% Referral Fee, which on a $1500
rent, would equal $150 Referral Fee.
Q: WHAT IS THE MLS ANYWAY?
A: MLS stands for
Multiple Listing Service. The MLS is a local database of homes for
sale and rent by REALTORS. Other REALTORS use the MLS to find homes for their
clients. Approximately 90% of homes are sold through REALTORS!
Only Licensed REALTORS have access to the MLS and it's thousands of homes
available. However, once listed in the MLS, there are literally
thousands of PUBLIC websites that pull the homes information from it and
display for the PUBLIC to view. Read Here the Wikipedia Definition of MLS
Q: WHAT
WEBSITES WILL THE MLS LISTING BE ON?
A: Once you are listed on the MLS, Thousands of
Websites pull the data from the MLS system and display on their website for
PUBLIC viewing. Several of the TOP websites include, REALTOR.com,
CYBERHOMES.com, MOVE.com, AOL REAL ESTATE, YAHOO REAL
ESTATE, and the list goes on and on!! Note:
Realtor.com, Move.com, Cyberhomes.com and all other websites that pull from
the MLS are not affiliated with RG REALTY or the MLS, they simply pull data
represented in the MLS and display on their domains. RG REALTY and its
affiliates have no control over these websites and do not offer any such
control, changes, edits, or advertising and are not responsible for any
changes in procedure or display of said domains.
