This is where the Seller saves substantially as most other Full Service Listings the Listing Brokers do not allow FSBO so they would get both the 3% Listing side commission as well as the 3% Buyer's side commission no matter how the Buyer came in or who the Buyer is. Even when the Seller handled the Buyer FSBO, other Full Service Realtors collect the full 6% commission at Closing. Not at Badger MLS, we don't collect a FSBO commission ever, the Seller is allowed to keep that amount.

Badger MLS is totally geared towards this, that is why all Badger MLS Listings are a "Showcase" Listing on Realtor.com. On the other hand, if the Seller accepts an Offer from a Buyer with a Realtor who earns the MLS Commission that the Seller advertises, then there is a Buyer's MLS Commission paid to the Buyer's Realtor and that Commission (usually 1% - 4%) is paid to the Buyer's Realtor and also 3% of the Sales price is also paid to Badger MLS at Closing.

Badger MLS does let you cancel ealry but we do require the cancellation fee paid when cancelling, which is 3% of the current List price.

Sellers, congratulations, you have an Offer. What to do next? Accept, Counter or Reject. If you are going to have your Real Estate Attorney handle this, please be sure to send Badger MLS copies of everything so we can stay up to date. If you intend for Badger MLS to handle your Buyer, Offer, Count, we do charge for this. Due to the fact that the deal may not go through and your Counter might just lose the Buyer and then there will be no Closing with this Buyer, the way it works with our 1% Commission Package is that you can either pay the $284 Offer fee upfront and then it comes off the 1% commission at Closing (free in the end), or Badger MLS eats the cost now, it is then added to the 1% commission at closing. The reason for this is to create an incentive to have our Sellers make their best Counter Offer and also to pay as they go along only for the things they need. This way we don't work for nothing and we get paid for our work and no one’s time is wasted, especially you the Seller and also the Buyer. If your best Counter Offer is accepted, then you get our Offer Review and Counter # 1 for free in the end if it is paid upfront. This is also an incentive for Sellers to make their best Counter Offer and not have us preparing many Counters back and forth at our expense not knowing if this is futile or if it will work. Our 3% Full Service Listing Package does not request fees paid at all, and our 2% Full Service Package cuts all our fees in half but still requests upfront payment as an incentive or the half priced fees are paid in addition to the 2% commission at Closing. With the 3% Full Service Package we will Review all the Offers and prepare all the Counters with no upfront fees just like the other Full Service Brokers do. The main difference is that we still allow you to sell FSBO where you always save on the Buyer’s side commission. FSBO means NO commissions are paid to the Buyer’s Broker because there is no Buyer’s Broker. You can always Amend your 1% Full Service Listing Contract with Badger MLS, but you can never downgrade for obvious reasons. If you ever want to cancel our Full Service Listing Contracts, we allow that too but you need to pay the 1%, 2% or 3% amount times your current List price and all Cancellations must be in writing. Just let us know if you ever want to upgrade to our 2% Listing Package or to our 3% Full Service Listing Package and you can always upgrade but never downgrade the Listing Package you have with Badger MLS. When you have a 1% Full Service Package which does require upfront refunded payment of all fees or this cost is added in at the end, yes, that means it is either free in the end if paid upfront or it is added to the 1% commission in the end if not paid upfront; So the incentive is double the cost of the item purchased. If the Listing expires without any Closing, these costs are all billed and need to be paid regardless as they incur Badger MLS an expense cost. It is only if the property Closes that we will be paid the 1%, so we want it to Close, but never at our expense because we provide the very best deal for Full Service Real Estate in the USA. We hope you understand and appreciate this. Whether it is payment for an Offer to Purchase written or review, Counter Offer, or getting on another MLS system such as the SCWMLS or the Metro Milwaukee MLS for the fee of $95, or the cost for a wood post metal sign – we want you to be clear on how the 1% Full Service Package works. The $284 fee we charge for an Offer to Purchase Review, which includes one Counter (each additional Counter is $50 - www. BadgerMLS.com/offer ) is still the best deal in Real Estate today. Everyone agrees that this is a very fair and reasonable charge for this and actually the lowest in the USA and our system is well thought out and again very fair. You can also read more about our upfront fees as an incentive with our 1% and 2% Full Service Packages at: www.BadgerMLS. com/fullservice There may be Real Estate Attorneys out there who might Review your Offer and prepare a Counter for less than $284, or they may charge more, as you don't have to hire Badge MLS to do this. You can hire a Real Estate Attorney for this which is actually recommended in our Addendums. When you pay Badger MLS the fee upfront, in the end since it comes out of the 1% Commission, in essence it is free. If you want us to eat this fee now, it is then added to the 1% Commission we collect at Closing; Just let us know what you want. Everyone agrees that this system is not only very fair and well thought out, but also the future of Real Estate. The only problem with not paying upfront is that when you get to the point where your unpaid fees exceed the 1% or 2% Commission amount, then we have to charge the fees for sure. Remember, when it comes to a Counter Offer, it's not that simple to just slap together a quick Counter, as a Licensed Broker Badger MLS is required to do much more than just that. We will spend over an hour closely Reviewing your Offer to Purchase and then about an hour going over it with you on the phone, especially if we find issues that need discussing, and then we will spend over an hour preparing the Counter and delivering it to the Buyer's Realtor after you receive it and sign it. We know you agree that we can’t just do all this for nothing. So, if you pay the $284 now that is the best deal for you and for us and you can do this at the www.BadgerMLS.com/offer web site. Just click on the $284 Pay Pal button and you can pay this fee with your Credit Card or transfer the funds from you Pay Pal account. Again, you are always able to take care of this on your end with your Real Estate Attorney. Badger MLS wants to make sure that you are informed of how our 1% Commission Package works. Let us know if you have any questions. We excel in how we help get an Offer to Purchase perfect and everyone is always very pleased with our professional services for the very low prices we charge. There are only so many hours in the day so never waste your time or anyone else’s time with frivolous Counter Offers. If your Buyer wants to get your Property for a much lower price than what you want to sell it for, then just reject it. Don’t Counter back your same List price, as these types of Counters never go anywhere. These deals in the end may never Close and it may need the price compromised much further to go through with low-balling Buyers. So, we will let you decide if you want to invest in the Offer Review and Counter Offer that you suggested, or not. Thank you. |
