What is "Florida MLS hub.com "?
Florida MLS stands for "Multiple Listing Service". Most people refer to Florida MLS as if it were all one big database of Florida homes. Actually there are over a thousand individual Florida MLS's; some big, some small. They are all separate from each other, so a Florida Realtor who looks on his local Florida MLS in Boston can't see the listings in the Florida Miami MLS. That's why it's so important to be listed in the correct local Flroida MLS. There are many national websites, like Realtor.com, that aggregate listings from all these 1000 MLSs, and put them all on one giant website. Some information, such as commissions offered to agents and owner contact information, is only displayed on the local MLS for agents to see, and not the national public websites.
Why you need a Realtor to list your home in Florida MLS
Only a licensed real estate broker who belongs to the Florida MLS and pays the Florida MLS dues and fees is able to list a property. An individual can't simply post an "ad" in Florida MLS, like placing an ad in a newspaper. The Florida MLS real estate broker is also responsible for the accuracy of the listing, and keeping it current. For example, the broker can lose his Florida MLS membership or pay heavy fines if a property is under contract or sold, but still listed as "Active" in Florida MLS. When you list with us, a licensed broker who belongs to the MLS where your property is located will be assigned to your Florida MLS listing.
If you list with a typical 6% Realtor, and the property sells, you pay the whole 6%, even if the buyer is your neighbor and the Realtor didn't do anything other than put his sign in the yard and enter the listing in Florida MLS. It gets worse - if you read the fine print in the typical 6% listing contract, you'll notice that you owe the entire commission if you want to cancel your listing early, or if you lease the home without the agent's permission! The main reason so many sellers sign such contracts is that they never read them.
