Compare the starting fee and the workload
These are options to investigate, not an independent ranking. Eaton publishes this guide and offers competing services. Competitor prices below are advertised entry prices; confirm the actual MLS, address eligibility and current written package.
| Option | Listing fee | What to compare |
|---|---|---|
| Eaton MLS Basic | $99 | Ten photos; two included changes; email support; seller-managed. |
| Eaton FSBO Plus | $499 | Maximum MLS photos; unlimited reasonable changes; forms and phone/email support; seller-managed. |

Ask every provider about any closing fee, required add-on, cancellation charge, renewal or paid revision. Compare the total package you need. A listing-input plan and represented brokerage service involve different responsibilities.
Greater Houston & Gulf Coast seller preparation
Before listing your League City property
Confirm the parcel before entering MLS data
Use the county record appropriate to the address and reconcile it with your survey and property documents. Galveston CAD is a starting point for relevant parcels; the listing broker should confirm the exact property and listing path rather than relying on a citywide assumption.
Prepare any waterfront or community details
If you are marketing a water-related feature, marina access or a community amenity, obtain current information about what conveys and any separate fees or restrictions. Describe only the rights and features you can support, not an assumption based on nearby homes.
Coordinate the photo and showing launch
Finish the photo package and identify who will provide access before the listing is activated. A seller who is already moving away should arrange an on-site contact. Showing coordination on the 1% plan does not automatically supply that person.
What does a lower fee look like?
At a $400,000 sale price, Eaton’s 1% listing commission is $4,000. Compared with a hypothetical 3% listing quote of $12,000, that is an $8,000 difference in listing-side compensation. Rates are negotiable; 3% is an illustration, not a required or universal rate.
The $99 and $499 packages cost less because you take responsibility for pricing, buyer inquiries, showings, negotiations and transaction management. Choose by the help you need, not the fee alone.

Questions before you list
Will Eaton personally show the property?
The 1% plan includes coordination of showing requests, not routine accompanied showings by Eaton. You provide physical access unless a different arrangement is agreed. With a seller-managed plan, you handle showing arrangements.
Are professional photos included?
No. You supply current photos you have the right to use. Eaton’s current optional photography offering is $199 for FSBO Plus and 1% listings, subject to availability; it is not an MLS Basic add-on. Confirm arrangements before ordering.
Is $99 my total cost to sell?
No. It is the MLS Basic listing fee. Additional listing changes after the two included requests are $25 each. Buyer-agent compensation, your closing costs and any separately agreed services are additional.
Which option fits if I need negotiation help?
Choose represented service if you want a broker to advise on pricing, review and negotiate offers, and coordinate the transaction. The two flat-fee options are seller-managed.
Can I decide after sending my address?
Yes. Start an inquiry, confirm MLS placement and compare written terms before choosing. No payment is collected in the initial inquiry form.
