The PROBLEM with using a flat fee broker is that the seller is not allowed to list their contact information in the MLS. Only the listing agent's contact info. is listed, so all leads go to the listing agent, not to the seller. Since the commission is all earned up front, once the listing fee is paid the listing broker has NO incentive to pass on any leads. The seller cannot be sure that the listing agent is passing on any leads.

In fact, the listing broker actually has an incentive NOT to pass on leads: The prospect of earning another renewal fee when the listing expires.
