Compare Uber Realty Listing Options
Simple Fee. 1%. 2%.
Same core professional representation. Same core marketing.
The difference is how the listing-side fee is structured and how much additional hands-on, in-person property help your sale requires.
A more expensive option should have a reason to cost more.

What Are You Giving Up With a Lower-Cost Option?
The core professional work does not disappear.
The Simple Fee and 1% Options are not designed as stripped-down MLS-only listings.
Under Uber Realty's current service model, the same core pricing guidance, professional marketing, MLS participation, offer analysis, negotiation and transaction guidance apply.
The real question is whether you need Jim to spend additional time physically managing things at the property.
What Stays the Same?
These are the core parts of the current Uber Realty seller process. Exact scope is controlled by the written listing agreement.
This does not mean every brokerage uses identical supplemental advertising, paid media or proprietary marketing. It means choosing a lower-cost Uber Realty option does not put your home into a different MLS marketplace or remove the core professional selling work.
Three Options. Choose the One That Fits the Work.
There is no good, better and best package.
Simple Fee
Or $5,000 paid at closing.
Simple Fee uses the same core service scope as the 1% Option.
The material difference is the listing-side fee and payment structure.
- Same core representation
- Same core marketing
- Fixed-dollar listing-side fee
- Normally no substantial routine in-person property help
- $4,000 upfront or $5,000 at closing
You want the core service, do not need significant property-side help and prefer a fixed-dollar listing-side fee.
1% Option
Core professional representation and marketing without paying for substantial additional in-person property involvement.
- Same core representation
- Same core marketing
- Percentage-based listing-side fee
- Normally no routine vacant-property checks
- Normally no vendor-management or property-management-type trips
- Inspection and appraisal guidance still included
You live at or near the property, can handle routine access and need a listing broker rather than someone to physically manage the house.
2% Option
The same core professional representation and marketing, plus additional hands-on, in-person property involvement when needed.
- Same core representation
- Same core marketing
- More physical involvement at the property
- Vendor access and coordination when appropriate
- Inspection, WDO or appraisal attendance when needed
- Reasonable vacant-property checks when appropriate
You are out of town, the property is vacant, or the sale is likely to require more of Jim's physical time at the house.
Exact service scope, payment timing, cancellation obligations and other terms are controlled by the current written agreement. Third-party labor, repairs, materials, cleaning, maintenance and vendor charges are separate unless specifically stated otherwise.
What Are You Paying More For?
Examples of Additional Property-Side Work
Vendor Access
Someone may need to meet a contractor, provide access or help coordinate work at the property.
Vacant Property
An owner who has already moved may need reasonable local property checks or additional physical help.
Inspection, WDO & Appraisal
In-person attendance may be useful when the circumstances justify it.
Property Coordination
Repairs, clean-out, flooring, maintenance or other physical issues may require more local involvement.
Start with the lowest-cost listing option that fits the work your situation actually requires.
What Would the Listing-Side Fee Be on a $600,000 Sale?
This is an illustration only. It helps show what the choice means in money.
$5,000 if using the pay-at-closing structure.
If the sale genuinely needs the additional hands-on property help, that may be money well spent.
If you do not need that help, ask why you would pay for it.
This example shows Uber Realty listing-side compensation only. It does not include buyer-broker compensation, concessions, repairs, taxes, title or settlement expenses, or other transaction costs.

Jim can look at your property, where you live, what needs to happen before and during the sale, and how much physical involvement the transaction is likely to require. Then he can tell you which option he thinks fits and why.

The Pricing Decision Does Not End on Listing Day
We make the strongest evidence-based pricing decision we can before launch.
Then buyers give us new information.
Every 15 Days While Active: Market Signal Review
All three options receive the written Market Signal review.
It explains what changed, what Jim thinks the evidence means, what he recommends and why, and what choices you have.
Day 15 is a review date. It is not an automatic price-reduction date.
You decide what happens next.
Buyer-Broker Compensation Is Separate
Simple Fee, 1% and 2% describe Uber Realty's listing-side compensation.
They do not automatically include compensation that may be paid to a broker representing the buyer.
Real estate broker compensation is negotiable and is not set by law.
Under current MLS rules, offers of buyer-broker compensation are not published in the MLS.
A seller can decide whether to authorize compensation to a buyer's broker, subject to the applicable written agreements and current rules.
Buyer-broker compensation can also be negotiated as part of a buyer's purchase offer.
Look at purchase price, buyer-broker compensation, concessions, financing, inspection terms, appraisal considerations, contingencies, closing date and estimated seller proceeds together.
Questions Homeowners Usually Ask
Is the 1% Option a reduced-service listing?
Not under Uber Realty's current service model.
The 1% Option receives the same core professional representation and core marketing. The main difference between 1% and 2% is the additional hands-on, in-person property involvement included when needed under the 2% Option.
Is Simple Fee a limited-service listing?
No.
Simple Fee follows the same core service scope as the 1% Option. The material difference is the fixed-dollar listing-side fee and payment structure.
What does Simple Fee cost?
Under the current operating model, Simple Fee is $4,000 paid upfront or $5,000 paid at closing.
The written listing agreement controls the final payment and cancellation terms.
What does the 1% Option cost?
The listing-side fee is 1% of the final sale price under the current model.
Exact terms are controlled by the current written agreement.
What does the 2% Option cost?
The listing-side fee is 2% of the final sale price under the current model.
Exact terms are controlled by the current written agreement.
Does the 2% Option get better photography or better MLS exposure?
No.
The 2% Option is not a better-marketing package. It uses the same core professional marketing and representation, with additional hands-on property involvement when needed.
Does a more expensive home automatically need the 2% Option?
No.
The price of the property does not determine how much physical help the seller needs.
Can I use Simple Fee on a higher-priced home?
Potentially, yes.
The better question is whether the property and your circumstances fit the Simple Fee service scope under the current written agreement.
Will buyers still find a Simple Fee or 1% listing?
When the property is entered into the applicable local MLS and participates in the normal MLS and IDX marketplace, choosing a lower Uber Realty listing-side fee does not put the home into a separate buyer marketplace.
Different brokerages may use different supplemental advertising and marketing strategies, so this does not mean every brokerage markets every property identically.
Is buyer-broker compensation included in the 1% or 2% fee?
No.
Uber Realty's listing-side fee and any seller-authorized buyer-broker compensation are separate.
Does the seller have to offer buyer-broker compensation?
Broker compensation is negotiable.
A seller should evaluate the decision based on the transaction, the buyer's offer, applicable agreements and current rules rather than assuming one fixed percentage applies to every sale.
Who decides which option I use?
You do.
Jim can explain which option he believes fits the likely work and why. The seller chooses whether the service and fee structure make sense.
