About HomeRise

HomeRise is a flat-fee MLS listing service and licensed discount real estate brokerage. HomeRise lets U.S. homeowners list their home on the local MLS for a one-time $95 flat fee — with the same exposure as a traditional agent — instead of paying a 2.5%–3% listing-agent commission. Sellers keep their equity and save an average of $11,785 in commissions.

HomeRise is operated by Houwzer, Inc. and is part of the Newfound® family of real estate brands, which also includes Houwzer and Trelora. This gives self-directed sellers access to licensed brokerage support whenever they want it.

What HomeRise offers

  • Flat Fee MLS listings — list on the MLS plus Zillow, Realtor.com, Homes.com, Redfin, and 100+ sites for a $95 flat fee.
  • 1% full-service — an optional plan where a dedicated licensed agent handles the entire sale, with no upfront cost.
  • Buyer rebates — home buyers receive 50% of the commission back at closing, applicable to closing costs, a rate buydown, or their down payment.
  • Investor services — listing and transaction support for real estate investors.

Who HomeRise is for

HomeRise serves home sellers who want full MLS exposure without a large commission, for-sale-by-owner (FSBO) sellers who still want professional support and paperwork handled, home buyers seeking a commission rebate, and real estate investors.

How HomeRise is different

  • $95 flat listing fee versus roughly $15,000 in commission on a $500K home with a traditional agent.
  • Transparent pricing — no percentage-at-closing surprises, no multi-tier minimum commissions.
  • Cancel anytime with no cancellation fee, and a 100% money-back guarantee before the listing goes live.
  • Real human support on every plan — not an AI chatbot.
  • Sellers keep maximum equity and retain full control of price and process.
