Unlike our competitors we are located in Massachusetts and available 7 days per week by phone and email. You will always be dealing with the principal
broker of Hillman Real Estate. Your listing will be

not respected within the real estate industry.
No. Hillman Real Estate will never ask you for more than the listing fee amount. The entire commission percentage that you have chosen to offer will be offered to
Agents that are representing the Buyer.
All we take is the flat fee. We will not bring you a
buyer.
In order to list your home on the MLS you must offer some type of compensation so that Buyer Agents will bring you ready, willing and able buyers. You are only required to pay out a commission if a Buyer's Agent procures a deal. You can offer any amount you wish.
If you are interested in receiving the massive amount of
exposure but are really not interested in compensating a buyer
agent you should offer a very small percentage to a
buyer agent. For example, if you offer 1% or less to a buyer
agent they may not work as hard to bring you a buyer. You will state the amount
of compensation on the listing sheet
before we publish you listing. All buyer agents will know what
you are offering before they show your home. However, If a buyer contacts you directly and purchases your property you do not have to pay anyone a commission.
No. You still maintain the right to sell your home on your own. If you find a buyer who is not represented by
a Broker, you will not be obligated to pay a commission on the sale. If this should happen you will save up to 6%.
You can market you home anywhere you want.
Your property will be active on MLS until your home is sold. Our contract is for
one year,. If not sold within this time frame your listing will be renewed as many times as it takes at no additional charge.
We have no control over bonus sites, they usually keep your
listing active until sold.
Absolutely.
Agents will be more than thrilled to show your home to prospective buyers. They will not treat you any differently than any other seller.
Our service is not shunned by the real estate community
because our listings add inventory to the marketplace and Hillman Real Estate is well respected through the industry.
Not all companies are well respected like Hillman Real
Estate.
It is a misconception among sellers that
an agent will "black ball" an MLS Entry Only
listing. Agents do not care, they just want to help their
customers buy. If a customer likes the house the agent
show it. If not, they would most likely loose the customer.
Our service adds to the housing markets inventory which is a
good thing.
Well, it is true that this service is not for everyone. We only recommend this service to those who are serious about selling their home because we guarantee it will sell if you use our flat fee MLS
listing service. If your the type of person who doesn't mind interacting with people and get excited about saving thousands of dollars then we promise this service is for you.
Yes. There is no visual difference whatsoever. For the most part, even real estate
agents who use MLS daily can't tell the difference. Every listing in MLS is standardized. We
put extra effort into listing. We make sure you a great
listing sheet.
Getting your listing into MLS is critical. Our Flat Fee MLS service provides far greater exposure than traditional For Sale by Owner marketing efforts. [See Chart] We get your home all all the most popular websites. Relying on your own marketing skills is a heavy task to take on. Advertising your home in the newspaper, placing a FSBO sign on your lawn and telling your neighbors about your house might not be all that effective. Advertising in newspapers is very expensive. [See Boston Globes Ad Prices] If you should be so lucky to find an interested buyer for your home you should be aware that since there's no agent looking after your
prospective buyer, making sure they are organized and taking every step to hold up their end of the deal things could easily break down. Agents can guide and control the buyer to secure the
deal, which is what you want. Buyer agents will also ensure that their buyers are pre-approved for financing before showing them homes. For the most part, qualified buyers want or need the assistance of real estate brokers. Thus, your property will be exposed to more qualified buyers through the MLS network accessed by real estate agents.
This depends if you send all required paperwork during
business hours. We do same day service. Once the listing is on MLS it will automatically syndicated across the Internet and displayed on thousands of real estate related sites. Within 3 days your listing will have completely propagated across the web for all to see.
NO. MLS
strictly prohibits seller/owner contact information to be displayed on their sites. However, our office information is clearly displayed for all interested Buyers and Agents.
Ir someone calls us we will tell them to contact you directly by providing them with your contact information. On the MLS listing sheet we always add additional instructions for Real Estate Brokers so they can contact you immediately. "Contact Seller directly please visit www.mlseo.comfor contact information."
No. You still maintain the right to sell your home on your
own as a For Sale By Owner. If you find a buyer direct, without the representation of an Agent, you will not be obligated to pay a commission on the sale. Just
be sure to ask each buyer if they are working with an agent.
We serve every town in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. We belong to MLS New England which provides service to Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine and Connecticut as well.
We will be providing more MLS listing services soon.
