You Looked at Flat Fee. But What If You Mess Something Up?

You've probably seen the flat fee MLS listings and thought about doing it yourself. Plenty of sellers do. But then reality hits: pricing it wrong, fumbling the negotiation, missing a disclosure, losing a buyer because your photos look like they were taken on a phone. One mistake on a $500,000 sale can cost you $20,000 or more — way more than you saved on commission.

That fear of messing up is completely rational. Selling a home is the largest financial transaction most people ever make. You don't want to learn on the job.

That's why we built HomeRise. We go across the country and recruit top-performing agents — the kind with 4.9-star ratings and 20 years of experience — and negotiate pre-negotiated rates with them in exchange for a steady stream of high-quality clients. You get a real expert handling every detail at 1% instead of 3%. Not because they're cutting corners, but because we already did the negotiating for you.

Why Sellers Choose Pre-Negotiated Rates Over DIY or Full Price

You don't have to choose between "cheap and risky" or "expensive and safe." There's a third option.

Someone Else Handles the Hard Stuff

Pricing strategy, disclosures, negotiations, inspection responses, closing coordination — your agent handles every part that trips up DIY sellers. You make the decisions, they do the work.

Pre-Negotiated Rates, Not "Discount" Agents

We negotiate 1% rates in bulk with top-performing agents in exchange for a steady flow of serious clients. They're not desperate — they're smart. And you benefit from the deal we already struck.

Agents With 4.9/5 Stars — Not Rookies

Every agent in our network is vetted for experience, ratings, and track record. These are the agents who'd normally charge 3%. They work with us because we bring them clients — and that's worth more than a higher per-deal margin.

Everything a 3% Agent Does — at 1%

Professional photography, MLS listing, Zillow and Realtor.com exposure, open houses, expert negotiation, and full closing support. Nothing is cut. The rate is just lower because we negotiated it.

Keep $10,000+ Without the Risk

On a $500,000 home, you save $10,000 vs. a 3% agent. But unlike flat fee or FSBO, you're not figuring out pricing, legal disclosures, or buyer negotiations on your own. The savings come from the rate — not from cutting your safety net.

Bundle & Save Even More

Buying your next home too? Use HomeRise for both and get a 50% buyer agent commission rebate on top of your 1% listing savings. That's $15K–$25K total savings on a typical move.

Low Commission Realtor FAQ

Common questions from sellers who want to save on commission without the risk of doing it themselves.

  • What is a low commission realtor and how is it different from flat fee or FSBO?
    A low commission realtor is a licensed, full-service real estate agent who charges a lower listing fee than the standard 2.5–3%. At HomeRise, agents work at pre-negotiated rates of 1% or 1.75% — but they provide the exact same service as a 3% agent: professional photography, MLS listing, Zillow and Realtor.com marketing, open houses, offer negotiation, and full closing management. This is fundamentally different from flat fee MLS or FSBO (For Sale By Owner), where you're paying for MLS access and handling everything else — pricing, showings, negotiations, disclosures, closing — on your own. With HomeRise, your agent handles all of that. The rate is lower because we recruit top agents and negotiate volume-based rates in exchange for connecting them with high-quality sellers.
  • Why would a good agent agree to work at 1%?
    Because HomeRise does the marketing and lead generation for them. Normally, agents spend 30–40% of their time (and money) finding clients — advertising, cold calling, door knocking, paying for leads. HomeRise eliminates that overhead by bringing them a steady stream of serious, pre-qualified sellers. In exchange, our agents agree to pre-negotiated rates. They make slightly less per transaction but close more deals with less effort spent on prospecting. It's the same reason a restaurant charges less on a delivery app — higher volume at a lower margin still means more total income. Our agents average 4.9/5 stars on Zillow, with 15–20+ years of experience. They're not discounting their service. They're running a smarter business.
  • What mistakes do FSBO and flat fee sellers commonly make?
    The most expensive mistakes happen in pricing and negotiation. Overpricing your home by even 5% can cause it to sit on the market, leading to price reductions that signal desperation to buyers. Underpricing leaves money on the table. Beyond pricing, common DIY seller mistakes include: poor-quality listing photos that reduce online clicks by up to 60%, incomplete or incorrect property disclosures that create legal liability, accepting the first offer without understanding leverage, failing to navigate inspection requests properly, and missing contract deadlines that can kill a deal. The National Association of Realtors reports that FSBO homes typically sell for about 23% less than agent-assisted homes. Even a fraction of that gap on a $500,000 home wipes out any commission savings from going it alone.
  • How much do low commission real estate agents save me?
    On a $500,000 home, a traditional 3% listing agent costs $15,000. A HomeRise agent at a pre-negotiated 1% rate costs $5,000 — that's $10,000 back in your pocket. On a $750,000 home, the savings jump to $15,000. Our average seller saves $12,000 compared to traditional commission rates. And unlike flat fee or FSBO, you're not trading those savings for risk. You get the same full-service support — the savings come from the rate we negotiated, not from cutting what your agent does for you.
  • What's the difference between the 1% and 1.75% plans?
    Both plans include all core full-service features — professional photography, MLS listing, syndication to 100+ sites, offer negotiation, and closing management. The 1% Market Expert plan uses a tech-enabled, data-driven approach where your agent leverages virtual tools for much of the process, keeping costs at the lowest pre-negotiated rate. The 1.75% Local Expert plan adds a traditional, hands-on experience with a neighborhood specialist physically present for home walk-throughs, staging consultations, showings, inspections, and closing. If the idea of doing anything remotely feels uncomfortable, Local Expert gives you maximum hand-holding at a rate that still saves you thousands vs. a traditional 3% agent.
  • How does HomeRise compare to discount real estate brokers?
    Most discount brokers reduce the commission by also reducing the service. Some offer little more than an MLS listing — no photography, no showings, limited or no negotiation support. You save on commission but take on the risk of managing the sale yourself. HomeRise works differently. We don't cut services to cut costs. We negotiate pre-negotiated volume rates with top-performing agents who agree to a lower per-deal margin in exchange for a consistent flow of qualified clients. The result is genuine full-service representation at 1% — same agents, same quality, lower rate. That's why our agent ratings average 4.9/5 on Zillow. Sellers aren't getting less. They're paying less for the same thing.
  • Are there upfront fees or hidden costs?
    No. There are no upfront fees, no marketing fees, and no cancellation penalties. You pay your listing commission (1% or 1.75%) only when your home sells and the transaction closes. If your home doesn't sell, you owe nothing. If you decide to cancel your listing before it sells, you can — no questions asked. The buyer's agent commission, if offered by the seller, is a separate cost negotiated as part of your listing strategy.
  • How does selling with a low commission agent work after the NAR settlement?
    The 2024 NAR settlement brought more transparency to real estate commissions and made commission structures more negotiable. For sellers, this is good news — it means you have more power to choose how much you pay your listing agent. HomeRise was built around this philosophy before the settlement made it mainstream. Our agents work within all current rules, and the settlement has actually validated the pre-negotiated rate model. Whether you offer a buyer agent commission or not, your HomeRise listing agent's fee stays at 1% or 1.75% — the rate we've already locked in for you.
  • Which states have low commission realtors available through HomeRise?
    HomeRise low commission realtors are available in all 50 states plus Washington D.C. No matter where you're selling, we have pre-vetted agents in your market working at pre-negotiated rates. Enter your details in the form above and we'll match you with a top-rated agent in your area.
  • Can I sell and buy through HomeRise to save even more?
    Yes. If you're selling your current home and buying a new one, HomeRise offers a bundle discount. Sell at a pre-negotiated 1% rate and receive a 50% buyer agent commission rebate when you purchase through HomeRise. On a typical move, that means $15,000–$25,000 in total savings across both transactions. The buyer rebate is applied at closing — no extra paperwork or hassle.
