From $550,000 to $613,000 Cash Offer, No Contingencies.
Flat-rate agents are everywhere these days, promising sellers low costs—but let’s be real: they come with even lower service. Agents and sellers don’t need to join that race to the bottom. Instead, sellers have the option to work with an EZ Listing Specialist that will deliver more value, better results, and do it all for as little as 0% listing commission.
Certified EZ Listing Specialist Alton Jones did exactly this on a recent sale. He offered sellers a 0% listing commission, but with full-service excellence that flat-rate agents can’t touch. The result? A huge success for him, $63,000 in extra value for his seller, and a flood of new opportunities.
Here’s how Alton pulled it off—and how you can, too, whether you’re an agent or seller.

How EZ Agents Outperform Flat-Rate Agents
1. Offer Sellers The Ultimate Value
Flat-rate agents rely on the “low cost” hook, but Alton took it one step further:
“If I could sell your home for 0% commission, can you think of any reason why you wouldn’t want to do that?”
That question opened doors. It sparked curiosity and got sellers to listen. But unlike flat-rate agents, Alton delivered the full-service treatment sellers actually want.
2. Market Like a Pro Without Breaking the Bank
With just $560, Alton made sure his listing looked top-notch:
Professional photos to catch attention.
Postcards targeted to local buyers.
45 open house signs and a solid Facebook campaign to drive traffic.
Result? 175+ people showed up at the open house, and Alton turned that buzz into offers and future leads.
3. Let the Platform Create Competition
Alton didn’t just market the home—he created a bidding war.
Buyers used the EZ Platform to place real-time offers, building transparency and trust.
33 offers pushed the price higher with every bid.
💡 Why it works: Buyers aren’t guessing what others might offer—they see it, and they don’t want to lose out. This drives serious competition.
4. Keep Sellers in Control
Unlike flat-rate agents, who often cut corners and limit options, Alton kept flexibility front and center.
The seller could:
Accept the best offer.
Negotiate for better terms.
Reject and wait for the right buyer.
The winning offer? A cash bid at $649,780 with no contingencies. Everyone wins.
5. Turn One Deal Into More Business
Here’s where flat-rate agents fall flat: they don’t build relationships. Alton’s full-service approach left a lasting impression:
He walked away with 70+ leads, 2 new listings, and 9 buyers in his pipeline.
An impressed fellow agent even referred two more listings his way after seeing how he used the platform.
💡 Pro Tip: Don’t let the transaction end at the closing table. Follow up, stay connected, and let your success stories generate future business.
