- About Us
Best Choice Flat Fee is a national group of independent real estate brokers. With Best Choice flat fee, you’re listing your property direct with a local state licensed REALTOR® and will save thousands on agent commissions.
Each one of our broker/REALTOR® has years of experience, specializing in listing and selling. We are here to provide you with outstanding service & support. Please call and ask questions if you like, or just order online.
List direct with a local broker/REALTOR®, as opposed to many other companies called, 3rd Party Referral Companies. These “Referral companies take your money, keep most of it, then “refer” you to some broker you do not know. Typically the seller gets poor service with these companies as the actual listing broker is making very little money.
Going direct is better and Best Choice is the clear choice.

Utah Buyer Brokerage Fee. The Buyer Brokerage Fee also known as the Buyer Agent Commission or (the “BAC”) is no longer posted over the MLS system. Per the NAR lawsuit, compensation to Buyer Brokerage will not be displayed over the MLS System. The Buyer Brokerage Commission, if any, will be requested by Buyer in the Utah Real Estate Purchase Contract (the “REPC”) in Section 4.3(e). The request for Buyer Agent Compensation is a negotiable item as are all other items in the REPC from Buyer to Seller.
The Buyer may choose to remain UNREPRESENTED by signing an Unrepresented Buyer Disclosure or Buyer may be REPRESENTED by the Listing Brokerage by Signing a Buyer Broker Agreement with a Limited Agency Disclosure Agreement. The Seller is not considered a “For Sale By Owner” but is at all times represented by the Company and the Seller’s Agent. The request for Buyer Agent Compensation is a negotiable item as are all other items in the REPC from Buyer to Seller.
MLS Compliance Fee. On all sales, there shall be an “MLS Compliance Fee”. This MLS Compliance fee is .0025 or ¼% of the Net Sale Price on all listings. This fee shall be collected at closing and due to the Company, to cover costs associated with coordinating the transaction and employing and enforcing policies and procedures required to stay compliant with State Laws and local board Rules. If buyer comes direct to seller with no agent, the MLS Compliance Fee shall still be due from Seller at closing.
