Increase Your
Bottom Line.

Sell your home with a local, full service agent and save thousands on commissions.

So What’s the Difference Between $1,000 or 1%?

Simple.

If you purchase another home using one of our buyer specialists (that’s free representation for you), we list your current home for a $1,000 flat fee.

If you aren’t buying another home or have already purchased one, we charge 1%.

With either option, you save thousands.

Quite a lot, actually.  Here’s what’s included whether you list for 1% or $1,000:

Home Valuation

We will visit your property to estimate the Fair Market Value by analyzing your property's condition & examining recent nearby sales.

Property Analysis

We will recommend repairs & improvements to sell your property for the highest price. We'll also connect you with professionals to help prepare your home for the market including painters, handymen & home stagers.

MLS Listing

Your home will be listed on the Triangle Multiple Listing Service so it is available for all Realtors to see. We pride ourselves in providing thorough & accurate information so we're ready for offers anytime!

Marketing

Your home will be featured on 400+ websites including Realtor.com, Zillow, Trulia & more. We'll also showcase your home on our Facebook page with over 700 fans.

Professional Photography

Photos are the most important marketing tool we have. We want only the best so we'll have our professional photographer take up to 25 photos to highlight your home's best features.

Lockbox & Sign

We'll provide a lockbox for your front door so agents can easily show your home to prospective buyers as well as a professionally designed yard sign to show your home is for sale.

Accurate Information

We work hard to ensure that all information about your home is accurate and readily available to buyers so that when they are ready to make an offer on your home, there's nothing holding them back.

Document Preparation

We will fill out all appropriate NC Real Estate Commission approved forms & make certain the correct addenda are included so that you're completely protected.

Full Representation

We represent you from start to finish so you don't have to ever speak to the other party or Realtors directly. We negotiate offers & repairs on your behalf & help coordinate closing details.

Closing Coordination

We'll help set up the closing date and time for you, as well as help you remember all the details like turning off utilities & forwarding your mail.

Feedback

You'll receive feedback from agents who show your home with what their buyers thought. We'll also review our marketing strategy every 30 days in case any adjustments are needed.

Teamwork

We have a dedicated team of people who are there to guide you through each step of the transaction. While we all have different roles, our number one priority is you.

Real People, Real Savings

The experience was even better than working for a full fee realtor. The team was there every step of the way. It is a total waste of money to use anyone else. Thanks Samara!

This is the 3rd time we have used Smart Choice Realty! We appreciate Samara's knowledge and professionalism. Angie was also a tremendous help and support. We were also very grateful for the money saved on the seller side using SCR!

Samara and Angie were always professional , well organized, and kept us informed throughout the process. This is the second time we used Smart Choice, and as before we were extremely satisfied.
We've worked with Samara 9 yrs ago when we moved from Knightdale to Wake Forest and it was a 'no brainer' to contact her again when we wanted to sell our TH in Wake Forest. Her entire office team is top notch!!

Highly recommend Smart Choice! We used them in 2017 when we purchased our first home and it was such a smooth and easy process, they kept us up to speed through the entire process. Fast forward to 2023, we decided to sell our first home and relocate and we reached out to Smart Choice to sell our home! Under contract and over asking price! I wish I could give Samara and the team 10 stars!! Do yourself the favor, don’t work with anyone except Smart Choice!!

My house was sold in 4 days. Samara was responsive to questions and kept me informed. I had inquired with 3 other realtors about the percentage that the realtors would make, and Smart Choice Realty had the lowest percentage. Saved me a lot of money! I would highly recommend.

Samara, Angie, and the rest of the Smart Choice team were amazing! After contacting Samara on a Monday, we were able to have the home on the market by Friday. All the perks of a full commission realtor at a fraction of the cost. Wouldn't use anyone else in the triangle area!

Twelve years ago we used Smart Choice Realty to buy our home in Durham, and couldn't have been more pleased with the process or Samara's patience with us as first-time buyers. Since then, we've moved out of state and rented the property.When we decided to sell, we immediately called Samara. She remembered us and our home without hesitation reinforcing that we made the right choice. With her guidance and help of her team, we sold our house quickly and easily from a different state and time zone. They were always available to answer our questions and offer advice.If we ever buy or sell a house in the Triangle again, we will only use Smart Choice Realty.
