You do not need to hand over a percentage of your equity to get on MLS and REALTOR.ca. With a flat-fee listing, you control your sale, keep more of your proceeds, and still reach the same buyer pool that traditional agents target.
This guide breaks down how ComFree’s flat-fee MLS packages work across Canada, what you need to list, how long it takes to go live, and province-specific notes like RMS measurements in Alberta. We will also walk through the clear seven-step path from purchase to iSOLD!, plus transparent pricing so you can compare options with confidence.
If you want full exposure without full commissions, you are in the right place.
A flat fee is a single, upfront price for a defined service, not a percentage of your sale price. In real estate, a flat-fee MLS service posts your property on the local Multiple Listing Service and syndicates it to REALTOR.ca for a one-time cost. There is no listing commission taken out of your sale proceeds.
Is a flat fee better than a commission? For many sellers, yes. A flat-fee model typically keeps thousands in your pocket because you replace a percentage payout with a predictable, lower cost. It is especially powerful in higher-price markets where commissions climb as prices rise, even though the work is similar. That said, the best choice depends on how hands-on you want to be and the support you choose to add.
What services typically use flat fees? Beyond MLS posting, flat-fee approaches are common for photography, measurements, floor plans, and legal document prep. ComFree also offers paid add-ons like Assisted List for extra help building your listing.
Yes. You can post your home on MLS and appear on REALTOR.ca through an authorized flat-fee listing service. ComFree prepares a compliant MLS entry and syndicates your listing nationwide through local board feeds so buyers and their agents see your property where they already search.
You remain the seller of record, control showings and negotiations, and choose if and how you collaborate with buyer agents. ComFree supports you seven days a week with guidance, tools, and access to partner services.
You complete guided listing forms with property details, measurements, features, and photos.
ComFree validates compliance items for the appropriate provincial board.
Your listing is published to the local MLS and then appears on REALTOR.ca through board syndication. It also displays through the IDX ecosystem used by agents and buyer portals.
Timelines to go live can vary by board processing and how quickly you supply complete information. Many sellers see their listing live shortly after submitting final materials and approvals. If you are ready with photos, measurements, and key details, going live can be fast.
Alberta: RMS measurements are required for MLS accuracy. ComFree can coordinate on-site RMS measurement service. This is included in ComFree’s Guaranteed sales package. Alternatively ComFree can coordinate for $197 which includes a full VR tour AND RMS measurements.
British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Ontario: Measurement standards differ by board. Provide accurate, metric-first measurements and any third-party reports you have. ComFree will guide you through the required fields for your board.
Wherever you live, accuracy matters. Incomplete data is the top reason listings get delayed, so gather your documents in advance.

Accurate property measurements and floor area details, plus RMS in Alberta if applicable.
