Why sellers choose Properkey over MLS My Home
-
A dedicated agent, not a dashboard
Flat-fee sites hand you software and a form. Properkey assigns one licensed agent who prices, markets and negotiates your sale from listing to close.
-
$0 beats any flat fee
Even the cheapest package costs real money before a single buyer walks through the door. Properkey's listing fee is $0 — no tiers, no upsells.
-
No à-la-carte surprises
Signs, disclosures, contract help, photos — DIY platforms sell them one by one. With Properkey, the service is the service.
-
The whole transaction under one roof
Financing, escrow, insurance and property management live on the same platform, so nothing falls between vendors.
Where MLS My Home stands out: a fair look
- Long operating history (since 1998, 500K+ listings claimed).
- Cancel-anytime policy.
We'd rather you compare with clear eyes. When you do, $0 with a dedicated agent is hard to argue with.
The bottom line
MLS My Home doesn't publish its prices — you find out during signup. Properkey's price is published everywhere it can be: $0.
Frequently asked questions
Its three photo-and-term tiers reveal pricing during signup, not before. Properkey's price needs no reveal: the listing fee is $0.
Just list — MLS entry with photo limits by tier, plus syndication. Showings, negotiation and paperwork are yours. Properkey's $0 includes an agent for all three.
Because Properkey isn't built on listing commissions. The platform spans the whole transaction — search, financing, escrow, insurance and property management — so we don't need to take 2.5–3% (or even a flat fee) from your sale to run a great listing. You get full MLS exposure and a dedicated agent; the listing side costs you $0.
There's no listing fee and no listing-side commission — ever. Like every home sale (including FSBO), standard transaction costs still exist: escrow, title and recording fees apply no matter who you sell with. Properkey listings close through Properkey Escrow, a non-independent broker escrow operated under Properkey's DRE license, at its published escrow rates — the same category of fee you'd pay any escrow company on any sale. Properkey may also receive compensation from other parties to the transaction. Buyer-agent compensation remains optional and negotiable.
Yes. Properkey listings go on the local MLS and syndicate to Zillow, Realtor.com, Redfin and hundreds of other sites — the same exposure a traditional 3% listing gets.
Buyer-agent compensation is negotiable and entirely your call — with Properkey and with everyone else, under the rules in place since 2024. The difference is the listing side: $0 with Properkey.
Cancel anytime. There's no lock-in contract and no cancellation fee — if Properkey isn't earning your business, you can walk away.
