Is 1% full service or just an MLS listing?
The 1% plan is full-service seller representation: pricing guidance, MLS listing management, showing coordination, offers, negotiation and contract-to-close support. The $99 MLS Basic and $499 FSBO Plus plans are seller-managed MLS-only options without representation.
Which plan fits a for-sale-by-owner seller?
Choose MLS Basic for essential MLS exposure and email support. FSBO Plus adds maximum MLS photos, unlimited reasonable changes, phone and email support, and document resources. On either flat-fee plan, you handle pricing, inquiries, showings, offers, negotiations, contracts, title and closing. Choose 1% when you want a broker to help manage those parts of the sale.
When is the fee due? Is there a minimum?
The 1% commission has no minimum and is paid at closing only if sold. MLS Basic is paid after signing and before MLS preparation. FSBO Plus is paid after the live MLS listing is reviewed and is non-refundable once paid, per your agreement.
Is buyer-agent compensation included?
No. The 1% is Eaton's listing-side fee. Any buyer-agent compensation is separate, negotiable and chosen by the seller. Optional services, taxes, title charges and other closing costs are separate too.
Who shows the property on the 1% plan?
Eaton coordinates showing requests, access instructions and buyer-agent follow-up. Local buyer agents typically bring their clients. You provide the agreed property access, often through a combination lockbox, and your broker helps coordinate the setup.
Can I cancel? How long is the listing term?
The usual term is six months. The 1% plan offers $0 standard cancellation, subject to your signed agreement and transaction obligations already created. Flat-fee payment and refund terms are separate and set out in the applicable agreement.
Are photos and a yard sign included?
Professional photography is an optional $199 service and an Eaton yard sign is an optional $99 service with FSBO Plus and 1% Full Service, subject to availability. Neither add-on is offered with MLS Basic.
Do you cover my Texas city or property type?
We consider homes, condos and land across our Texas service areas. The exact MLS path, service plan and property requirements are confirmed from your address before activation. West Texas and Panhandle expansion-market inquiries require address-based confirmation.
How should I compare Texas discount brokers?
Compare representation, actual fees and minimums, payment timing, local MLS availability, showing responsibilities, negotiation help, cancellation terms and who supports you through closing. Our broker guide and linked public reviews can help you compare those details rather than the headline price alone.
