Badger MLS other options for our Limited Service Sellers to choose from:

Your 5 Badger MLS Cancellation options are:

1.  Simple Cancellation: - You simply go to www.BadgerMLS.com/cancel to send
Badger MLS a letter or email announcing your wish to cancel your Limited Service
Listing early, and include your cancellation fee of $39.  Please read all terms on this
web page if you cancel.  We will change your status to "Expired" or "Withdrawn".  Then
you are free to List with a new Full Service MLS Broker.  We no longer require Sellers
to give us the list of Buyers and Brokers who went through your property.  You can
send this list if you wish, it is for your protection, your named exclusions who you wont
have to pay a commission out if they buy, but we don't require it.  All you have to do is
just send the letter of cancellation and your $39 payment for "Simple Cancellation".   
You can either mail a check made out to "Badger MLS", or you can pay online.  If you
are not in any hurry, mail the check, but if you want this done soon, then pay online.  
You can use your credit card to pay online.  Your status will be changed within 24 hours
after payment and written confirmation are received.  This $39 Cancellation fee is
waived if you have a "Planned Cancellation" and want to either renew or re-List with
Badger MLS at a later date.

2.    Badger MLS Full Service: -  You can also upgrade your current Badger MLS
Limited Service Listing Package to one of our 3 Badger MLS Full Service Listing
Packages.  This could save you the most money if you go Full Service, as we also
refund your upfront Limited Service fee after your property successfully Closes.   We
always guarantee the lowest prices, even with Full Service.  We will help you save the
most money with several Full Service Commission Options to choose from that are less
than 6%.  Badger MLS is the exact same kind of Licensed Real Estate Broker as First
Weber, Shorewest, Remax, Century 21 and all the other Brokers out there.  We offer
Full Service on our Listings as well; Just like them.  We specialize in Limited Service to
save our Sellers the most money, but we do offer many other options, Full Service
included.  When switching from Limited Service to Full Service, you will save the most
with Badger MLS.  Badger MLS just sold a Full Service Listing in less than 2 weeks
in Sun Prairie (MLS # 1481005).

3.  Broker Referral: -  Have Badger MLS work with you to help you find a new Full
Service Broker who fits your exact needs.  Sometimes you need more marketing, or
someone to handle your showings, or you may have other special needs.  We can help
you find the best match if this is what you want.  Let us help you.  We know your
property and the market and the other Brokers and Agents.  Use our knowledge to help
you make the best choice.  Most Full Service Realtors charge 6% Commission.  With
our Badger Broker Referral, we also waive the $39 cancellation fee, as these new Full
Service Brokers usually offer Badger MLS a referral fee that is larger than the $39
cancellation fee.  With this Option, Badger MLS only receives a referral fee if your home
sells, so we remain interested in helping you sell.  Again, you get our full cooperation
with our Broker Referral option which includes the continued use of all our photos, and
full assistance from us in helping your new Agent get your property listed asap, as we
only get our Referral fee from the new Agent if your home sells.  We cooperate fully and
help throughout your new Listing whenever needed.  Most Full Service Realtors prefer
that you contact them via our Referral Package.  It makes the process go much
smoother.

4.  Co-Listing for "Showcase": - We offer a Full Service +  Limited Service Combined
Badger MLS Co-Listing Package for only $125.  The Co-Listing fee is increased to
$250 if done without Badger MLS's written consent, but only costs $125 when Co-Listed
with Badger's MLS's full support and consent.  Most Real Estate Companies do NOT
allow you to Co-List, but we do as a courtesy to our Sellers.  We will amend your Limited
Service Listing contract with Badger MLS to now become both a Limited Service Listing
with Badger MLS and a Full Service Listing with another Broker/Agent.  Either the Seller
or the new Broker can pay the $125 Co-Listing fee, but it must be paid in advance.  The
Full Service Broker usually will want to take over your Listing completely, but you also
remain Listed with Badger MLS as Limited Service so you can stay on Realtor.com as a
"Showcase" Listed property and sell FSBO, if the new Broker allows it.  All these terms
need to be discussed in detail with the new Broker, and it is best if they contact Badger
MLS directly as well so we are all on the same page.  Badger MLS will prepare the
Amendment to our Listing contract and will assist your new Co-Listed Broker with an
Addendum to their Listing contract with you.  All this for just $125.  You would do this
only if your new Full Service Broker is needed for things like Showings, Advertising, or
other issues that Badger MLS normally does not do.  Badger MLS can also upgrade
your Listing to one of our Full Service Listing Packages as well.  Another great reason
to Co-List is if your new Realtor is NOT a "Showcase" Listing Broker with Realtor.com.  
Badger MLS has "Showcase" Listing status for our Sellers on Realtor.com, but many
Full Service Realtors do not.  To keep your "Showcase" status, we offer this Co-Listing
Package so you can also have a Full Service Broker and keep your "Showcase" status
with Realtor.com through us.  We do this to help our Sellers.

5.   Broker Cancellation: - Your $39 cancellation fee is waived if your new Full Service
Broker buys our Transfer Package for $100, which includes use of all our fantastic
photos of your home, keeping your Virtual Movie Tours on Google Video and YouTube,
plus our permission to use all Badger MLS services including our Remarks, signs,
photos, measurements, inspections, condition report, marketing, etc, to help you sell.  
You will also remain on Badger MLS's Home web page with your photo link still showing
your Badger MLS Agent Full MLS View Listing Profile with your phone number on it, to
help you sell.  This $100 fee is usually paid by the new Broker taking over the Listing
and must be paid in advance.  
Caution:  Do NOT allow a
Full Service Broker to
reduce your price right
away.  If you want to reduce
your price, do it now while
you are still with a Limited
Service Real Estate Broker
like Badger MLS.  The MLS
is the same for all Brokers,
so don't take the plunge
and go Full Service unless
they will sell your property
for the same price or a
higher price than what
Badger MLS has it listed at.  
If you switch to Full Service,
you should raise your price
to compensate for the
increase cost that the Full
Service Listing commission
will cost you.  Full Service
Brokers should raise your
price to make up for the
Commission increase, not
lower it.  The worst thing
you can do when leaving
Limited Service is to lower
your price.  If you do, you
take a double hit, a Full
Service Commission, plus
the loss of money from
lowering your price.  Don't
do that.  Instead, either
switch to Full Service with
Badger MLS at the same or  
higher price, or lower your
price while you are still
Limited Service.  Lowering
the price on a property is
always the easiest thing to
do to sell it, because you
the Seller take the hit with a
lower sale price.  Don't do
that unless you really have
to.  Never give your
property away.  Always talk
to your Listing Broker
Badger MLS before you
make any final decisions.  
We are dedicated to help.
