Choose the amount of help you want. $99 MLS Basic and $499 FSBO Plus are seller-managed MLS options. 1% Full Service is for sellers who want Eaton representing them from pricing through closing.
Austin sellers can choose seller-managed MLS access or full representation. Eaton confirms the address and MLS eligibility before preparation so the listing is positioned in the correct system.
Eaton separates MLS access from seller representation so the difference is clear before you sign: the flat-fee plans are DIY transaction paths; the 1% plan includes CMA/pricing guidance, buyer-agent communication, showing coordination, negotiation and contract-to-close support.
You handle price, inquiries, access, showings, offers, negotiation, contracts, title and closing. No CMA or pricing guidance.
You still manage the transaction. Optional professional photography is $199; optional Eaton yard sign is $99.
Paid at closing only if sold. Buyer-agent compensation is separate and chosen by the seller.
| Task | $99 Basic | $499 Plus | 1% Full Service |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLS entry | Included | Included | Included |
| Pricing / CMA | Seller | Seller | Eaton guidance |
| Photos | Seller, up to 10 | Seller; optional $199 pro photos | Seller; optional $199 pro photos |
| Inquiries & access | Seller | Seller | Eaton handles buyer-agent communication; seller provides access |
| Showings | Seller | Seller | Eaton coordinates and follows up |
| Offers / negotiation | Seller | Seller | Eaton represents seller |
| Contract-to-close | Seller | Seller | Eaton coordinates |
Buyer-agent compensation is separate and negotiable. Title charges, taxes, payoff, concessions and other transaction expenses are separate from Eaton’s listing-side fee.
Austin and much of Central Texas are commonly served through Unlock MLS / ACTRIS. Eaton confirms the exact address and listing eligibility before setup.
Accurate property facts, clear access instructions and realistic pricing matter more than stuffing the listing with generic city keywords.
Illustration only: on a $500,000 sale, a 3% listing-side fee would equal $15,000. Real estate commissions are negotiable; 3% is not a required or standard fee.
| Model | Illustrative fee | Difference from 3% example |
|---|---|---|
| Eaton $99 MLS Basic | $99 | $14,901 |
| Eaton $499 FSBO Plus | $499 | $14,501 |
| Eaton 1% Full Service | $5,000 | $10,000 |
