2. FlatRateRealtyUSA.com is a “For Sale By Owner” and marketing advertising service and as such we do not provide real estate, legal or any other professional service. The FlatRateRealtyUSA.com website provides marketing and advertising services only. If you need the professional help of a real estate licensee, an attorney or any other professional, we recommend that you seek out professional advice. Nothing herein shall be construed as legal, real estate, financial or any other type of professional advice.
3. FlatRateRealtyUSA.com offers you access to local Realtors who will list your home on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) for a flat fee*. You must sign a listing agreement to have your home listed on the MLS. Though you will have no further costs to have your home listed on the MLS**, you do agree to offer a commission to a Realtor should they bring you a buyer. You may offer whatever commission you wish, though we recommend that you offer the commission most prevalent in your area. You are purchasing a referral for an MLS listing; you are not hiring a Realtor. The Realtor who will contact you will be offering you the limited service of an MLS listing, they do not represent you in any way. Your MLS listing will instruct Realtors who are interested in your home to contact you directly for showings, information and offers. After your property is listed on the MLS, you must deal with your listing agent with respect to any issues regarding your MLS listing. While we guarantee that you will get an MLS listing for your property, we do not guarantee that you will be able to control what your listing says. Any disputes regarding MLS listings MUST be handled between you and your listing Realtor. We make no warranties as to how your listing will be displayed or what specifically it will say. You agree to compensate Polaris Realty Group for any reasonable expenses incurred by us in the event that we are required to get involved in any dispute between you and your listing agent.
4. You may cancel your MLS listing at any time. If you cancel your purchase before our partner has submitted your information to the MLS we will refund you your entire referral fee less a $50 administrative charge. If you cancel AFTER your information has been submitted to the MLS there will be NO REFUNDS. There are no refunds issued on lock boxes and signs once shipped.
