An MLS-only listing for $99–$299 puts your home on the MLS and walks away. No one negotiates for you. No one reviews disclosures. No one protects your interests. In Florida's market — with hurricane disclosures, HOA complexities, and insurance volatility — that's a risk. ShopProp's $4,995 full-service listing includes a managing broker on your deal. The price difference is $4,696–$4,896. The protection difference is everything.

Key Differences

MLS-only vs full service. Florida Flat Fee Homes places your listing on the MLS for $99–$299. That's the entire service. ShopProp's $4,995 listing includes professional marketing, negotiation, disclosure review, and managing broker oversight through closing.

No one at the table for you. When a buyer's agent submits an offer on your Florida Flat Fee Homes listing, you're on your own. ShopProp's managing broker handles all counteroffers, repair negotiations, and closing coordination.

Florida's disclosure complexity. Hurricane mitigation, flood zones, HOA reserves, insurance requirements — Florida sellers face complex disclosure obligations that can create liability. ShopProp's managing broker reviews every disclosure. Florida Flat Fee Homes does not.

Buyer representation too. ShopProp represents buyers for $1,995 and rebates the rest of the commission. On a $600K home, that's $13,005 back to you. Florida Flat Fee Homes offers no buyer service.

19 years, 4,000+ transactions. ShopProp was founded in 2007 and has completed over 4,000 deals across 9 states. That experience matters when navigating Florida's unique market.

ShopProp pioneered transparent flat-fee pricing nearly 20 years ago — not to discount real estate, but to elevate it. Founded in 2007, ShopProp put a managing broker on every transaction because the percentage model doesn't reward better service — it just charges more. Nearly two decades and 4,000+ deals across 9 states later, ShopProp didn't lower the bar on service. It raised it — and lowered the cost of getting there.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between ShopProp and Florida Flat Fee Homes?
Florida Flat Fee Homes is an MLS-only listing service charging $99–$299 statewide. They place your home on the MLS with no negotiation, no disclosure review, and no representation. ShopProp's full-service listing starts at $4,995 and includes a managing broker who handles all negotiations, reviews disclosures, and represents you through closing.
Is Florida Flat Fee Homes really cheaper than ShopProp?
Florida Flat Fee Homes charges $99–$299 for MLS placement only. ShopProp charges $4,995 for full-service representation. The difference buys you a managing broker who negotiates on your behalf, reviews hurricane and HOA disclosures, handles counteroffers, and guides you through closing.

Does Florida Flat Fee Homes provide agent representation?
No. Florida Flat Fee Homes is an MLS-only service. They list your property and that's it — no agent negotiates for you, reviews disclosures, or represents your interests during the transaction.
Why does representation matter when selling in Florida?
Florida has unique complexities: mandatory hurricane/flood disclosures, HOA document requirements, insurance volatility, and title insurance customs that vary by county. A managing broker reviews all disclosures, negotiates repairs and credits, and ensures you don't expose yourself to liability.
Does ShopProp help buyers in Florida?
Yes. ShopProp offers buyer representation starting at $1,995. On a $600,000 home with a 2.5% buyer commission ($15,000), ShopProp keeps $1,995 and rebates $13,005 back to the buyer.
