What is 1 Percent Lists? How does it work? In short we are an extremely efficiently run real estate company that has successfully cut unnecessary overhead while increasing marketing exposure for our clients. Through all of these structural improvements to the traditional real estate brokerage model we are able to offer you complete real estate service for only 1% commission on the listing side and can sell it for as little as 3% TOTAL commission. Saving up to half the typical real estate commission gives you numerous options when selling your home. If the home you are selling needs a little help the money you save by using our innovative marketing strategy can help out with that expense. A great home in a great area means we sell it faster and the money you save pays for your move, closing costs, or just keep some extra cash in your pocket.
