Start with the fee structure
This is a fee-and-service comparison, not a winner ranking. Eaton Real Estate Company publishes this page and is one of the companies shown. Pricing can change by market, property or selected service, so confirm terms directly with the provider before signing.
| Provider | Published listing-side pricing | Minimum / upfront structure | Service model | What to verify |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Eaton Real Estate Company | 1% Full Service | No minimum; listing-side fee paid at closing only if sold | Broker representation from pricing through closing; optional $99 MLS Basic and $499 FSBO Plus are seller-managed alternatives | Photography and yard sign are optional; buyer-agent compensation, if offered, is separate and seller-selected |
| Clever Real Estate | 1.5% through its agent-matching program | $3,000 minimum; fee due at closing if sold | Matches sellers with participating local agents who agree to Clever’s negotiated rate | The specific agent and brokerage providing the representation |
| Redfin | Standard listing fees currently range from 2%–3%; qualifying sell-and-buy customers may receive a 1% effective listing fee | Minimum commissions and other terms apply | Redfin agent service; fee depends on services and qualification | Your local market fee, minimum and whether the 1% sell-and-buy condition applies |
| VIP Realty | $5,000 full-service flat fee; $600 FSBO MLS option | Flat-fee model | Texas brokerage with full-service and seller-managed MLS options | Which services and local coverage are included for your property |

Buyer-agent compensation is not included in the listing-side prices above unless a provider expressly says otherwise. Any buyer-agent compensation a seller chooses to offer is negotiable and separate.
Why the headline rate can mislead
Service level matters
Typically includes pricing guidance, MLS management, buyer and agent communications, offer review, negotiation, contracts and transaction support through closing. The exact scope varies by company.
The broker places the property in the MLS, while the seller handles more of the sale. Compare photo limits, change allowances, lead forwarding, showing tools, forms and whether contract or negotiation help is included.
The company connects you with a participating local agent. The individual agent and brokerage matter because they perform the listing work, so interview the actual agent who would represent you.
Some advertised low rates depend on buying another home through the same company, selecting a particular service tier or meeting a minimum fee. Compare the condition before comparing the percentage.

Texas seller FAQ
No. A 1% listing fee refers to the listing-side brokerage fee. Buyer-agent compensation, if offered, is separate, negotiable and chosen by the seller. Other closing costs can also apply.
No. Eaton’s 1% Full-Service plan has no minimum listing-side commission. The listing-side fee is paid at closing only if the property sells.
No. A seller-managed flat-fee MLS package can be much less expensive because the seller takes responsibility for more of the transaction. Read the exact service scope before comparing it with a full-service percentage plan.
Pricing models differ. Some companies require a minimum commission, a home purchase through the same company, a specific market or a certain service tier. Compare the final dollar cost and the conditions, not just the advertised number.
Eaton provides seller services in covered Texas markets using an online-first, broker-led model. MLS availability and service logistics can vary by property and local MLS. Start with the property address so coverage can be confirmed.
