Sell Your Home with 0% Listing Fee When You Buy Your Next One with Us

Thinking about moving up or downsizing in Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Corrales, Placitas, or the East Mountains (including Tijeras, Edgewood, and Sandia Park)? You shouldn't have to pay full real estate commissions on both ends of your move.

When you partner with our team to buy your next home, we will list and market your current home with zero listing commission. You get our complete, full-service representation—from high-end marketing and social media exposure to contract negotiations—without paying a listing agent fee.

How the Program Works

Qualifying for our 0% listing commission is simple. You can choose whichever path works best for your plans:

Option 1: Buy One of Our Featured Listings

If you purchase a home listed directly by our team, we earn our commission as the seller’s agent on that transaction. In return, we list, market, and negotiate the sale of your current home for free on the listing side.

Option 2: Let Us Represent You as Your Buyer's Broker on Any Home

Find a home you love listed by any brokerage or agent across the Greater Albuquerque area. When you hire us to represent you as your buyer's broker for that purchase, we will list your existing home with zero listing commission.

Full-Service Support (No Cut Corners)

Waiving our listing fee doesn't mean cutting back on service. Your current home gets the exact same top-tier treatment, maximum exposure, and hands-on guidance we bring to every listing:

• Professional Presentation: We provide a personalized staging consultation so your home looks incredible both online and in person.

• Targeted Digital Marketing: Custom social media and online ad campaigns designed to reach buyers actively shopping in your neighborhood.

• Maximum MLS & Online Exposure: Full syndication across Zillow, Realtor.com, Trulia, and all major real estate sites.

• Proactive Realtor & Buyer Outreach: Direct networking with active local agents who have ready buyers, plus featured promotion to our internal buyer database.

• Smart Pricing & Showings: Expert, data-driven pricing strategies, professional open houses, and smooth private showing coordination.

• Closing Support from Start to Finish: Skilled contract negotiations, guidance through inspections and repairs, and complete oversight right up to closing day.

Coordinating Your Timeline & Transition

Depending on your goals and financial flexibility, we will help you choose and execute the right strategy so you never feel rushed or stressed:

• The Simultaneous Closing: We align both transactions to protect your equity and streamline closing dates. By coordinating the sale of your current property and the purchase of your next home to close on the exact same day, we ensure a seamless transition from one front door to the next—eliminating the stress of double mortgage payments or temporary housing.

• Buy First, Sell Later: If you prefer to move out completely before putting your home on the market, we can help you navigate the logistics of buying first. This approach allows for a stress-free move and gives us the opportunity to prep, stage, and market your current home without the daily disruption of showings.

A Few Important Details to Keep in Mind

• Buyer Broker Compensation: While our listing fee is strictly 0%, offering buyer broker compensation remains an important option to consider. In today's market, many qualified buyers simply do not have the extra out-of-pocket cash to cover their agent’s fee on top of their down payment and closing costs. Considering buyer broker compensation ensures those buyers can still write a competitive offer on your property rather than having to pass it by.

• Professional Photography: To ensure your home makes the absolute best first impression online, sellers cover the direct cost of professional high-definition photography, so your home looks incredible online and in person.

• Transaction Coordinator Fee: The seller covers the transaction coordinator fee to ensure all paperwork, contract details, disclosures, and critical closing deadlines are handled with exact precision from contract to close.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does your 0% listing fee program work?

When you hire our team to represent you as your buyer's broker for your next home purchase anywhere in the Greater Albuquerque area, we list, market, and negotiate the sale of your current home with zero listing-side commission. You get our complete, full-service representation on both transactions.

Do I qualify for the 0% listing fee if I buy a home listed by another brokerage?

Yes. You can purchase any home listed on the local MLS by any agent or brokerage across Greater Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Corrales, Placitas, or the East Mountains. As long as we represent you as your buyer's broker on that purchase, your current home qualifies for our 0% listing fee program.

What if I purchase one of your team's featured listings?

If you purchase a home listed directly by our team, and we earn our commission as the seller’s broker on that transaction. In return, we honor our 0% listing fee promise when marketing and selling your current home.

Is this a limited-service or flat-fee listing program?

Not at all. You receive our complete, full-service representation. This includes strategic pricing analysis, customized digital and social media marketing, local MLS syndication, agent-to-agent networking, open house management, and skilled contract-to-close negotiations.

Do I still need to offer buyer broker compensation on my sale?

While offering buyer broker compensation is optional, it is an important strategy to consider. Many qualified buyers in our market do not have the extra out-of-pocket cash to cover their agent's fee on top of their down payment and closing costs. Offering compensation ensures these buyers can still write a competitive offer on your property rather than passing it by.

What out-of-pocket expenses am I responsible for as a seller?

Under this program, the listing-side commission is strictly 0%. The seller covers the direct cost of professional high-definition photography to ensure top-tier online marketing, as well as the transaction coordinator fee to ensure all paperwork, disclosures, and closing deadlines are meticulously managed.

Why do I pay for professional photography?

Over 90% of buyers start their search online, making professional visual presentation crucial. By covering high-definition photography directly, you ensure your home makes an immediate impression on major sites like Zillow and Realtor.com, maximizing showings and buyer interest.

What does the transaction coordinator do, and why is that fee covered by the seller?

A professional transaction coordinator manages contract paperwork, monitors contingency deadlines, liaises with title companies and lenders, and ensures full legal compliance from contract to close. This minimal fee protects your timeline and keeps your sale moving smoothly to the closing table.

What if I need to sell my current home before buying my next one?

We customize the schedule to fit your exact financial and living requirements. Depending on your needs, we can write contingent purchase offers, negotiate a post-closing occupancy agreement (rent-back) so you can remain in place temporarily, or coordinate a simultaneous closing on the exact same day.

How does a simultaneous closing work?

We align both transactions to close on the exact same day. We handle contract timing, escrow coordination, and title management behind the scenes so you can move directly from your current home into your new one without carrying double mortgage payments or needing temporary housing.

What if I prefer to buy my new home first before selling my current one?

If you have the financial flexibility to purchase first, we coordinate the purchase of your new property before listing your current home. This allows you to move out completely and gives us the opportunity to prep, stage, and show your home without daily living disruptions.

What happens if we list my home, but I can't find a new home I like?

Your peace of mind comes first. We build explicit home-finding contingencies directly into your listing contract upfront. If you are unable to find and secure a suitable replacement home within the agreed-upon timeline, you are under no obligation to complete the sale of your current property.

Which geographical areas does your 0% listing fee program cover?

Our program covers residential properties across the Greater Albuquerque metropolitan area, including Rio Rancho, Corrales, Placitas, Los Lunas, and the East Mountains (Tijeras, Edgewood, and Sandia Park).

Can I use this program if I am downsizing to a less expensive home?

Yes. Whether you are moving up to a larger home or downsizing to a smaller property, as long as  you qualify for our 0% listing fee program.

How will my home be marketed to local buyers?

Your home receives maximum exposure across all major channels: direct MLS syndication to Zillow, Realtor.com, and Trulia; targeted social media and online ad campaigns; proactive outreach to active local buyer brokers; and promotion to our internal network of active home buyers.

Do you provide staging guidance before my home hits the market?

Yes. We provide a personalized staging consultation to evaluate your home's layout, lighting, and curb appeal. We give actionable advice to highlight your property's best features and ensure it presents exceptionally well in photos and in-person showings.

How do you determine the listing price for my current home?

We conduct an in-depth Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) evaluating recent sales, active listings, pending contracts, and localized market trends in your specific neighborhood. We work with you to establish a data-driven pricing strategy that maximizes your equity while attracting serious buyers.

How are showings and open houses managed?

We coordinate private realtor showings through secure electronic lockbox systems that track all visitor activity. We also organize professional Open Houses and manage showing feedback to keep you fully informed throughout the selling process.

How do you protect my financial interests during contract negotiations?

We bring decades of local real estate experience to the table, advocating for your bottom line on price, inspection terms, repair requests, seller concessions, and appraisal contingencies across both your sale and purchase.
