The MLS listing is identical — same database, same syndication, same contracts. What changes is the fee and the process: Listlly's platform handles scheduling, offers and document flow, and a licensed agent does the pricing and negotiation.
Frequently asked
Is a 1% commission realtor legitimate in El Monte?
Yes. Listlly's agents are California-licensed and the brokerage is eXp Realty of California (DRE #01878277). The listing goes on the same CRMLS every El Monte agent uses.
How much do I save with 1% on a $670,000 home?
$33,500 compared with a 6% commission: $6,700 instead of $40,200.
What about the buyer's agent?
Any buyer-agent compensation is negotiated inside the purchase offer, if at all — it is not part of the listing with Listlly or with a traditional agent. Buyers can also submit offers directly on Listlly.
Will my home show up on Zillow and Redfin?
Yes — identically. Portals pull from the CRMLS feed; the commission you pay doesn't affect placement.
