HomeZu makes it easy to sell your home, where you live.
Flat Fee MLS is a cost-effective approach to selling your home, allowing you to list your property on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) without the hefty commission fees of traditional real estate agents. By paying a one-time flat fee, you gain access to this powerful marketing tool, putting your home in front of thousands of buyers and agents. Working with multiple brokers nationwide expands your reach, ensuring your property gets the exposure it deserves in diverse markets. This combination gives you the flexibility and savings to sell your home on your terms while leveraging the expertise of experienced professionals across the country.

We harness the power of technology
We utilize the technology available to us and to our customers to enable us to offer valuable services and a reasonable price. Some of the technology used includes everything from internet marketing and the use or PropZu, our customer software designed to make it easy for sellers to list their homes and manage their listings. PropZu streamlines the listing process, utilizing electronic signatures to make the process clean and seamless. .
We put the power in sellers’ hands
Our sellers determine whether or not they want to offer a buyer agent commission. If the seller chooses to offer compensation to the buyer agent, the about of the commission is completely up to the seller. Sometimes this comes down to a negotiation between the seller and the buyer agent and can be influenced by the strength of the offer presented by the buyer.
