How Many Investors Use Flat Fee MLS Brokers?

[Matthew B.]

Just curious how many other investors use the flat fee brokers, who charge a flat fee to list on the MLS and then step away.

I've been using one of these brokers for a while now, and it's great. I always offer the selling agent 2.5%, which is typical in my area, so I don't miss out on any showings.

I recently left the brokerage I where I was a broker associate in order to become a standalone broker, so soon I'll be able to list for free. I imagine my investor friends will start asking me to list their properties for a flat fee as well.
