Beware of hidden charges
Setting up with FSBO.Com was remarkable easy- until the handoff to the actual broker they selected to provide the MLS listing. This broker wanted my credit card information before he would list my property on MLS. I had already paid FSBO.com the full fee for the service plan I had selected. When I told the realtor I saw no reason to give him my credit card info, he stated "much like when you check into a hotel, you leave your credit card information for any incidental charges..." What Incidental charges? you get my credit card information IF I decide to buy something extra, not INCASE- in this online world. FSBO did refund my charge but be aware

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're glad to hear that the setup process on FSBO.com was smooth, but we're sorry for the frustration that followed during the MLS listing handoff. To clarify, while FSBO.com provides the flat-fee MLS listing service and support, the actual MLS entry must be completed by a licensed local broker, as required by state and MLS regulations. Some of these brokerages may have their own internal policies—such as requesting a credit card for incidental charges or optional services—though this is not a requirement set by FSBO.com. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, and we’re glad we were able to process a refund promptly. Your feedback helps us continue improving how we communicate and coordinate with our brokerage partners. If you have any further questions or if we can assist in another way, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Sincerely, FSBO, Inc.
