How to Compete with Flat Rate or Low Commission Offers

As an EZ Listing Specialist, you can offer the one thing low-commission agents use to win listings—0% commission—but with something they can’t match: full service, unmatched flexibility, and higher results for your clients.

Here’s how to use the EZ Real Estate Platform to stand out, win listings, and deliver exceptional value without cutting corners.

1. Highlight More Than Just Your 0% Commission Offer

Low-commission agents typically slash rates by cutting marketing, showings, and negotiation support. Not you. As an EZ Listing Specialist, you can offer 0% listing commission while delivering full-service excellence:

Professional marketing with photos, signage, and online exposure.
Expert pricing strategies to attract buyers and create competition.
Transparent bidding with the EZ Platform for maximum offers and better terms.

💡 Pro Tip: During listing appointments, emphasize:
“You’re not sacrificing service for savings. With me, you get 0% listing commission and full support from start to finish.”

2. Win Listings with Full-Service Transparency

The EZ Real Estate Platform levels the playing field—and then some. Unlike low-commission agents who limit transparency, the EZ platform creates real-time visibility for buyers and sellers.

Buyers see all competing offers in real-time, eliminating the guesswork.
Sellers control the process, choosing which offers to accept, reject, or negotiate.
You simplify the process while maintaining your value as a trusted professional.

💡 Result: Homes sold through the EZ platform receive 10+ offers on average, compared to the typical 2-3 with traditional listings.

3. Deliver Premium Results Without Premium Costs

Low-commission agents rarely achieve top-dollar sales because they skimp on the marketing necessary to foster a multiple offer scenario. Additionally, they’re often quick to agree to a seller’s price expectations, even if it’s unrealistic. This is a recipe for low-ball offers or inactivity.

As an EZ agent, you provide sellers with a way to price it right without losing money, and a platform that maximizes exposure, attracts more buyers, and drives higher offers.

Example:
Alton Jones offered 0% commission to win a listing and set a price that would attract buyers. He generated 33 offers after a successful open house. The final sale price was $63,000 above market value, and Alton earned over $30K in commission thanks to a buyer’s premium and double-siding the deal. The winning buyer happened to be a real estate agent, and they loved the platform!

💡 Pro Tip: Share success stories like Alton’s during your listing appointments to highlight the proven value of the EZ approach.

4. Build Relationships that Last

While low-commission agents focus on inbound volume, EZ agents benefit from relationships and referrals. Use the platform and your value adds as an EZ Listing Specialist to provide an exceptional experience, and watch your network grow.

Example:
After one successful listing, Alton Jones generated:

40+ warm leads
9 qualified buyers
2 new listings
Multiple referrals

💡 Pro Tip: Follow up after every deal to maximize your pipeline.
