Flat Fee MLS® Ontario
Sell your Ontario property with MLS® exposure and REALTOR.ca visibility without paying a percentage-based listing commission. theRealtyCommission.com provides flat-fee listing services for Ontario homeowners who want to sell or lease their property while remaining in control of the transaction.
What Is a Flat Fee MLS® Listing?
A flat-fee MLS® listing is a real estate listing service where the seller pays a predetermined fee for listing services rather than paying a percentage of the property’s sale price as a listing commission.
With theRealtyCommission.com, Ontario property owners can use a limited-service listing model designed for sellers who want broad online exposure while handling more of the selling process themselves.

Flat Fee vs Percentage Commission
With a percentage-based listing arrangement, the listing-side cost can increase as the property’s sale price increases. With a flat-fee service, the listing fee is predetermined according to the service selected.
