Why is there an upfront Listing Activation Package?
Traditional brokerages often hide their backend media and administrative expenses inside an unyielding 3% commission, or surprise you with an unexpected "broker admin fee" buried deep inside the contract at the kitchen table. We don't believe in hiding costs.
Because we charge a highly competitive 1% at closing, we separate our pricing so you know exactly what you are paying for upfront. Your one-time Listing Activation Package goes directly to work for you immediately—funding professional photographers, drone operators, and 3D digital media vendors to launch your home onto the market with maximum impact. You pay only for the exact assets created for your property, keeping thousands of dollars of equity in your pocket where it belongs.

The listing activation package and 1% commission cover SPOT's full listing services. They are not your total cost to sell. Other closing costs, such as attorney fees, title charges, transfer taxes, and any buyer-agent compensation you agree to, are separate.
Smarter listing plans. Zero hidden fees.
Have questions about how our 1% model and activation packages work? Find answers below.
What’s the catch? Why is your commission only 1%?+
There is no catch—just a smarter business model. Traditional brokerages are weighed down by expensive office spaces, corporate franchise fees, and heavy administrative overhead. They force every client to pay a rigid 3% commission to cover those costs. SPOT is a lean, technology-driven brokerage. We cut out the corporate bloat and pass those massive savings directly back to you, allowing you to keep thousands of dollars more of your home's equity.
Can I just pay the Listing Activation Package fee out of my closing proceeds?+
To offer a true 1% closing commission, we separate our pricing. The $495, $695, or $895 package goes to work for you immediately—paying the professional photographers, drone operators, and 3D digital media vendors who physically build your listing's marketing campaign. Traditional firms secretly roll these high vendor costs into a 3% closing commission to cover other properties that didn't sell. By paying your production costs upfront, you only pay for the exact assets created for your home, allowing us to keep your closing fee at just 1%.
What if my home doesn't sell? Do I get the Activation fee back?+
Because 100% of the activation fee is immediately spent on third-party media vendors to shoot, edit, and launch your property, this portion is non-refundable. However, you completely own the high-end digital assets we create. More importantly, our interests are fully aligned: SPOT does not make a dime on our core 1% professional commission unless your home successfully closes.
Do I have to choose the plan that matches my home's value?+
Not at all. The price ranges listed under each tier (e.g., "Homes Under $250K") are our professional recommendations based on market data for what it takes to make a home competitive in that price bracket. However, you have total control. If you have a $200,000 home but want premium 4K drone footage and cinema walkthrough video, you are completely free to upgrade to the Signature Plan. You choose the marketing power you want.
Does the 1% include the commission for the buyer's agent?+
No, the 1% covers SPOT’s full-service listing representation. Buyer-broker compensation is separate and completely negotiable under post-2024 NAR rules. Depending on market conditions and the buyer's contract, you may choose to offer an off-MLS concession to attract the largest pool of buyers, or the buyer may pay their agent directly. We will analyze every incoming offer with you to ensure you walk away with the highest possible net proceeds.
