What is Flat Fee MLS?
Flat fee MLS is a smarter way to sell your home in Tucson. Instead of paying a traditional real estate agent 5-6% of your home’s sale price, you pay one low, flat fee to list your property on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) and receive full professional service.
Here’s what makes it different:
With traditional agents, you pay a percentage of your home’s value—meaning the more your home is worth, the more you pay in commission, even though the work remains the same. With Help-U-Sell’s flat fee MLS service in Tucson, you get the same expert guidance, professional marketing, and MLS exposure for one transparent, affordable price.
Your home gets listed on the Tucson Association of Realtors MLS (TARMLS), which means it appears on Zillow, Realtor.com, Redfin, and every major real estate website—exactly like traditional listings. Buyers’ agents can still show your home and earn their commission from the buyer’s side, so you don’t sacrifice any exposure.
The only difference? You keep thousands more of your hard-earned equity.

Flat Fee FAQ
How much does flat fee MLS cost in Tucson?
Our flat fee MLS service starts at $5,950.00, which includes everything listed above. This is a one-time fee that covers professional listing, marketing, and support from listing to closing. Compare this to traditional commission of 5-6% (listing agent’s portion 2.5-3%), and the savings are substantial.
Will buyer’s agents still show my home?
Absolutely. Your home is listed on the official Tucson MLS (TARMLS) and shows full buyer agent compensation. Buyer’s agents are paid from the buyer’s side of the transaction (typically 2.5-3%), so they’re fully incentivized to show and sell your property.
What’s the difference between flat fee MLS and FSBO (For Sale By Owner)?
With FSBO, you handle everything yourself—pricing, marketing, showings, negotiations, and paperwork. You save money but take on all the work and risk. With our flat fee MLS service, you get full professional representation and guidance while still saving thousands compared to traditional commission. It’s the best of both worlds.
How long does it take to sell with flat fee MLS?
On average, properly priced homes in Tucson sell in 30-60 days, regardless of whether you use traditional or flat fee representation. What matters most is pricing, condition, and marketing—all of which we handle professionally.
Do I get less marketing than traditional listings?
Not at all. Your home receives the same MLS exposure, professional photography, yard sign, and online syndication as any traditional listing. In fact, because we’re not limited by traditional broker overhead, we often invest more in marketing technology and online presence.
What if my home doesn’t sell?
We’re committed to helping you sell. If your home isn’t attracting offers, we’ll work with you on pricing adjustments, additional marketing, or staging improvements. There’s no long-term contract trap—you can withdraw your listing if needed, though our success rate speaks for itself.
Is flat fee MLS legal in Arizona?
Yes, absolutely. Flat fee MLS is completely legal in Arizona and is recognized by the Tucson Association of Realtors. We’re licensed, insured, and operate in full compliance with Arizona real estate law.
Can I still negotiate the buyer agent commission?
Yes, you decide what buyer agent commission to offer (typically 2.5-3% in Tucson). Offering competitive compensation ensures maximum buyer agent participation and showing activity.
What areas do you serve?
We serve Tucson and surrounding areas including Vail, Oro Valley, Marana, Sahuarita, Green Valley, Rita Ranch, Catalina Foothills, and beyond. If you’re in Pima County or surrounding areas, we can help.
