My story today is about why some buyer's agents, don't get their jobs. Seems too many buyer's agent seem to believe that when they offer advice to their buyers about making an offer they seem to put the superman cape on and go on a mission of making offers that are unrealistic and are not in the best interest of their buyer.…Read More

I had tried full service Realtors with no success. I was very skeptical about ADDvantage and their services but was willing to try. Keith far exceeded my expectations. He was professional, knowledgeable and and very honest. We overpriced our home for the market and he told us so. We had several offers and Keith worked each with excitement and confidence. He was always just a phone call away. I would recommend Keith and ADDvantage to everyone I know!

ADDvantage PLUS™ Remains the Most Effective Flat Fee MLS Florida Listing Plan

By owners in Florida have 3 choices to market their homes for sale. The “go it alone” FSBO sign in the yard. The “by owners” FSBO websites either cost a fortune such as “Buy Owner” and or limit the audience to just their website. By owner marketing, by itself, with no other means of attracting buyers is not effective in today's buyer's market.

Buyers use the Internet 86% of time to locate a home. Realtor.com, homes.com, and the thousands of Realtor® and MLS based websites garner the majority of the serious buyers. To be effective selling by owner in Florida, FSBO's need the big 3…Realtor.com, Homes.com, and the 150,000 Florida licensed real estate agents all working for them.

Are you considering a Short Sale for your Florida home?

Unfortunately many Florida homes are valued less than what's owed to the lender. The decision to short sale your home or condo depends on many factors.

Most people are concerned and confused about the credit impact of a short sale, whether the lender will come after you for any deficiencies and if the lender will accept you (and your credit/assets) as a short sale.

We are the best flat fee listing service in Florida! But don't take our word for it…read what our clients are saying about ADDvantage…

Keith sold our house in St. Cloud, Florida Osceola County last week. We had our house on the market for 3 years. We had tried to sell it ourselves and had also had listings with other realtors. We listed it with Keith Gordon and we had a contract and a closing within 60 days. St. Cloud, which is in Osceola County is one of the hardest hit in foreclosures in the state, needless to say there was quite a bit of competition. Keith is the first realtor I have ever dealt with that I was sorry to have to say goodbye to. He was extremely professional and given the opportunity went the extra mile every time. Keith was out of our area, however it was never a concern because communication is his strongest of many attributes. For the first time we felt that our realtor was really working for us and not just to close the deal at any cost. He is awesome and we would highly recommend him and his staff. We would love to have him represent us again.

More About Listing in the MLS with ADDvantage®

When listing your home, condo or land flat fee MLS in Florida, we are your best choice because we offer the highest level of Internet marketing and our “live” phone service starts each day at 8:00am-8:00pm 7 days a week, even Saturday and Sunday.

We are Florida's most successful discount MLS broker. Our success stretches throughout Florida in cities such as Miami, Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville, Ocala, Tallahassee, Florida Keys, Gainesville, Naples, Fort Myers, Fort Lauderdale, and beyond. Our sales statistics speak for themselves!

Flat Fee MLS listings save by owners from paying 6% because you decide how much commission to offer buyer's agents. Sellers offer buyer's agents 2%, 2.5%, 3%, and sometimes even 4% to get more attention. With flat rate MLS listings, you also have the opportunity sell your home yourself and pay no commission at all! (When sold to a buyer not represented by an agent).

There was a time that paying 6% was accepted as “norm” but not any more because listing agents today are “transaction brokers” and do not exclusively represent the seller, but instead represent "the deal". Back in the day, they just represented the seller. By owners in any Florida city can list their homes directly in the MLS with ADDvantage® and pass this commission savings onto to the buyer.

ADDvantage® has direct MLS membership in many Florida cities…even small MLS boards such as Amelia and Marco Island. (see our MLS board coverage)

List your home, condo, townhouse, vacant land, or rental anywhere in Florida Plus you'll have a professional listing in your local MLS, Realtor.com, Homes.com, MSN, Yahoo, Craigslist, GetMoreOffers.com, and 100's more by owner sites.

Our Reputation Helps Flat Fee MLS Florida By Owners


What is the MLS?

The MLS, Multiple Listing Service, is a database of all Florida properties listed by Realtors®. There are over 50 MLS Associations in Florida and ADDvantage® belongs to most Florida Realtor® Associations from Miami, Orlando, Tampa, Jacksonville, Naples, and so on. When you list your home in the MLS, the listing broker offers a commission to all Realtors® (called a co-brokerage) in a concerted effort to sell the home.

What is Realtor.com and IDX?

Each evening, all Florida MLS listings are uploaded to Realtor.com from each MLS Association and are re-displayed on sites such as GetMoreOffers.com, Realtor.com, and many other Realtor® websites using what is called an IDX feed.

Why list flat fee in the MLS?

Listing flat fee in the MLS saves the by owner seller in Florida from paying a listing commission. And, if you sell by owner with no Realtor® involved, you pay no commission. Listing commissions represent 50% of the cost of selling in the MLS. Most flat fee MLS sellers in Florida offer 3% to buyer's agents.

Agent Activate® is an optional service where buyers are shown your property by one of our qualified agents. 100's of Realtors® throughout Florida have sold an ADDvantage® flat fee MLS listed property. We track and rate each Realtor® creating a pool of qualified Agent Activate® agents. Once you list your home with ADDvantage® each Realtor® that shows your home will be evaluated for their “Realtor® etiquette” and buyer skills via our feedback system.

So when a buyer calls, the best agent will help sell your Florida home and will be paid your "offered" commission, typically 3%.

About the MLS Florida Realtor Associations:

South Florida MLS system is called the Southeast Florida Regional MLS (RMLS). This MLS system includes Greater Miami, Hollywood, Davie, Fort Lauderdale, Sunny Isles, Weston, Pembroke Pines, Golden Beach, North Beach, South Beach, Aventura, Hollywood, Dania Beach, and many more cities within Broward and Miami-Dade County. ADDvantage® holds membership in two South Florida Realtor® Associations, Greater Miami Association of Realtors® and the Greater Fort Lauderdale Association of Realtors®.

Central Florida MLS system is called the Mid-Florida Regional MLS (MFR) with the Orlando MLS as the original member. This MLS system is the largest Florida MLS listing system, which now includes all Orange, Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, Manatee, and Sarasota Counties. Florida cites within MFR would include Orlando, Tampa, St. Pete, Clearwater, Palm Harbor, Holiday, Trinity, New Port Richey, Bradenton, St. Pete Beach, Maderia Beach, Redington Beach, Sarasota, Holmes Beach and Venice.

Ocala has its own MLS which covers all Marion County. Its Realtor® Association is the Marion County Association of Realtors®. St. Augustine and St. Johns have their own MLS associations and MLS systems.

West Coast of Florida MLS system includes Greater Tampa Bay and the cities of Tampa, St. Pete, Tierra Verde, Clearwater, Dunedin, Palm Harbor, New Port Richey, Trinity and St. Pete Beach. Tampa Bay has 3 major Realtor® Associations which are the Greater Tampa Association of Realtors® (GTAR), West Pasco Association of Realtors®, and the Pinellas Suncoast Association of Realtors®. ADDvantage® holds direct membership at West Pasco and GTAR which share data with Pinellas. All Tampa flat fee MLS listings go through GTAR and not Mid-Florida because GTAR issues “T” as the starting letter in the MLS number sequence. Mid-Florida uses an “o” (“oh”) which is very confusing because it looks like a “zero”. A Realtor.com search will not pull results if an unsuspecting person enters a “zero” instead of an “oh”.

South West Florida includes all cities south of the Sunshine Skyway Bridge. This includes Terra Ceia, Long Boat Key, Siesta Key, Holmes Beach, Anna Maria, Palmetto, Bradenton, Englewood, Sarasota, Fort Myers, Cape Coral, Estro, and Naples. The Mid-Florida Regional covers all Sarasota County to Pasco County. Bradenton has its own Realtor® Association, Manatee Association of Realtors®, which is separate from Sarasota. The Sarasota Association of Realtors® covers just Sarasota County and does not share data with Manatee MLS. Moving further south, Englewood has its own MLS Association (Englewood Area Board of Realtors®) but is covered by Sarasota's MLS and Mid-Florida. Fort Myers is its own MLS called the Realtor® Association of Greater Fort Myers and the Beaches which does not share data with any of its neighbors. Venice has its own MLS called Area MLS of Venice. Punta Gorda, Port Charlotte, and North Port use the Charlotte County MLS. Naples is its own MLS called the Sunshine MLS and its association is The Naples Area Board of Realtors®(NABOR). NABOR does not share data with its neighbor to the south, Marco Island. ADDvantage® is not a member of Marco but most Marco Realtors® belong to Naples where ADDvantage® holds MLS membership.

The southern most point of the United States is the Florida Keys. There are three MLS Associations, Marathon, Key West, and Key Largo MLS. All three share data from Key West to Marathon. ADDvantage® holds MLS membership in Marathon.

North Central Florida includes Gainesville and Tallahassee. Each has its own MLS and Association. The Gainesville-Alachua County Association of Realtors® covers Alachua county and the Tallahassee Board of Realtors® which includes the counties of Leon, Wakulla, Franklin, Jefferson, and Gadsden.

Northwest Florida includes Citrus County which has it own MLS and Association called the Realtor® Association of Citrus County. This MLS board covers Crystal River, Brooksville, Homosassa, Hernando, and Inverness. Dixie, Gilchrist, and Levy Counties are covered by Dixie-Gilchrist-Levy MLS.

Northeast Florida is Jacksonville. Jacksonville's MLS system is called NEFAR which stands for Northeast Florida Association of Realtors®. It covers greater Duval County and does not share data with any neighbors such as Amelia Island. ADDvantage® holds MLS membership in NEFAR and Amelia Island MLS. Amelia Island-Nassau Association of Realtors® covers Fernandina Beach. To the south of Jacksonville is Daytona Beach Board of Realtors® which also has their own MLS system which includes Daytona Beach, Ormond Beach, Port Orange, South Daytona, Holly Hills, and Howey-in-the-Hills. The Realtor® Associations of Clay, Putnam, St. Johns, and Ponte Vedra Beach all have their own MLS systems and separate boards.

Martin County Board of Realtors® is the Palm Beach Regional MLS. Melbourne Area Association of Realtors® is the Brevard County MLS. Jupiter MLS, Flagler County Association of Realtors®, Palm Coast MLS, Bunnell MLS and Beverly Beach MLS and St. Lucie MLS, all have their own MLS systems.

Panhandle of Florida of Santa Rosa County, Escambia, Santa Rosa, and Pensacola all use the PARMLS covering Escambia County and the Emerald Coast. (ECAR) Okaloosa, Walton Counties MLS, Bay County, and Panama City MLS.
