At Hawkins Real Estate Services, we offer a true 1% full-service listing fee for Maryland homeowners who want professional representation without giving away 2.5% to 3% in traditional listing commissions.
Whether you are selling a single-family home in Montgomery County, a townhouse in Howard County, or property in Frederick, Carroll, or Anne Arundel counties, Hawkins Real Estate Services provides complete Bright MLS placement, professional pricing guidance, targeted buyer marketing, showing management, and full contract-to-closing negotiation support.
Before you list with a traditional 3% agent, compare the numbers for yourself. On Maryland’s strong property values, keeping 2% of your equity puts thousands back into your pocket at settlement.
1. What Does a 1% Maryland Listing Fee Include?
- Bright MLS listing syndicated to Zillow, Realtor.com, Redfin, & Trulia
- Maryland market valuation and local county comparative market analysis
- Strategic digital marketing, yard signage, & electronic SentriLock/Combo lockbox
- Showing coordination & agent feedback management
- GCAAR/MAR contract review, offer negotiation, & closing oversight
2. How Much Do Maryland Sellers Save?
Traditional listing agents charge 2.5%–3% on the listing side alone. With our 1% fee:
- $500,000 Home Value: Save $10,000 at closing
- $750,000 Home Value: Save $15,000 at closing
- $1,000,000 Home Value: Save $20,000 at closing
That equity stays in your bank account—not your listing agent's.
3. 1% Full-Service vs. Flat Fee MLS
- Flat Fee MLS: Entry-only MLS placement. You handle pricing, showing calls, contract paperwork, negotiations, and closing resolution on your own.
- 1% Full-Service Listing: Licensed broker Joe Hawkins (25+ years experience) negotiates on your behalf and manages full contract-to-close support.
4. Who Is This Best For in Maryland?
This 1% full-support service is ideal for Maryland sellers who:
- Want full-service broker representation without paying 3% listing fees
- Are selling in active Central Maryland counties and cities
- Want professional negotiations protecting their bottom line at settlement
