1. IggysHouse.com Property Posting: Get Your Property Online!

We enable you to post your property for FREE on IggysHouse.com. You may post unlimited details, text, and images.

Your property posting on www.iggyshouse.com is not an MLS listing.

There is a second process called “Request MLS” (see #12 below) which must be completed before your property can be listed on the MLS.

2. Free MLS Listing: Sample of Service

The Free MLS Listing offer is meant to provide a sample of the type and quality of service sellers will receive with an MLS listing through IggysHouse.com.

The seller receives the benefits of having their property on an MLS available to Realtors® and the public without the commitment of a long term listing agreement, or the requirement to pay up-front listing fees. The Free MLS listing expires after 30 days.

Please see MLS and Realtor.com® Listing upgrades sections below for more information on listing enhancements during the Free MLS listing period.

3. Monthly MLS Listing: Pay As You Go

Sellers can choose to keep their MLS listing active following the 30 day Free MLS period by utilizing the
“Pay As You Go” Monthly MLS for a low monthly fee. The Monthly MLS will be offered in 6 month intervals. Sellers can cancel the Monthly MLS anytime. Sellers can renew the Monthly MLS at the same low monthly fee should the property not sell within a 6 month time period.

Sellers can choose the Monthly MLS at any time during the Free MLS period. Should the seller choose the Monthly MLS, an amendment to the original listing authorization will be signed to reflect an expiration date change and incorporate the Monthly MLS fee structure.

4. MLS Listing Upgrades: Pay only for what you want, or have it all

During the Free MLS period, sellers can enhance their MLS listing through purchased upgrades. Optional property information fields and additional images may be purchased independently.

However, sellers may also choose to upgrade to the Monthly MLS listing which would include their choice of all available property information fields and the maximum number of images allowed on the particular MLS. This upgrade choice can be made at any time within the Free MLS listing period.

There are no further upgrades to the MLS listing since the service includes the seller’s choice of all available property information fields and the maximum number of images allowed.

5. MLS Listing Change Fees: Requesting MLS listing changes

8. Cancellation/Lease Fee: $25

Free MLS Listing: A Free MLS listing will expire in 30 days if no action is taken by the seller to upgrade to the Monthly MLS. When the Free MLS listing expires, the property is removed from the MLS, and the seller is released from the listing agreement and there will be no cancellation fee. If a seller cannot wait until 30 days has passed, they can choose the cancel status, but there will be a $25 cancellation fee collected at the time the status is chosen.

Monthly MLS: If a Monthly MLS listing is cancelled prior to the 6 month expiration date, a cancellation fee of $25 shall be collected from the seller at the time the status is chosen.

Lease Fee: If at any time during the Free or Monthly MLS, if the seller enters into a lease or lease purchase agreement for their property and chooses the “Leased” status, it shall have the same effect as a cancellation and the $25 shall be collected from the seller at the time the status is chosen.

9. Closing Administration Fee: $149

Free or Monthly MLS listings that result in successful sales shall incur a closing admin fee paid by the seller. This will be collected at closing as a seller closing cost and will be paid to the listing broker through the title/closing company or attorney.
