Meydomo: Start Here · Chapter 5 of 6
Meydomo vs. Traditional Agents
Traditional agents anchor their value to “full service.” Meydomo mirrors the service stack—MLS launch, lead handling, offer guidance—without taking six percent of your equity. Here is how the numbers and service layers stack up.
Video idea: Animate a closing statement with and without the 6% line item. Layer in scenes of the Meydomo call desk in action to reinforce value over commission.
Cost comparison at a glance
| Sale price | Agent listing commission | Meydomo flat fee | Equity kept |
|---|---|---|---|
| $300,000 | $18,000 (6%) | $1,198 | $16,802 |
| $500,000 | $30,000 (6%) | $1,198 | $28,802 |
| $750,000 | $45,000 (6%) | $1,198 | $43,802 |
| $1,000,000 | $60,000 (6%) | $1,198 | $58,802 |
The buyer-agent incentive (traditionally 2–3%) remains at your discretion in both scenarios. The numbers above isolate the listing side so you can focus on the controllable delta.
Service matrix: who does what
| Service | Traditional agent | Meydomo | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| MLS listing + compliance | Yes (standard) | Yes (included via broker partners) | Parity. We just remove the percentage fee. |
| 24/7 lead response | Depends on agent availability; many miss after-hours calls. | AI + human desk answers instantly, books showings, logs notes. | Advantage Meydomo. Response time is measurable and consistent. |
| Offer comparison & negotiation support | Agent summarises and negotiates on your behalf, aligned to commission. | Offer grid, deadline tracking, optional review calls. You choose negotiation strategy. | Control stays with you, without losing clarity. |
| Pricing + strategy advice | Yes, but influenced by commission urgency. | Data-led insights from Momentum Reports; you pull in humans as needed. | Advice without commission bias. We do not need a quick close. |
| Cost to close | Listing side ~3% (plus buyer agent unless negotiated). | $1,198 total (buyer-agent incentive optional). | Savings fund staging, repairs, or lower list price to drive urgency. |
No conflict of interest
Commission-based advice can be skewed toward the fastest path to closing. Meydomo’s flat fee removes that bias. We are here to make sure you see every angle—price, terms, contingencies—so you can negotiate from strength without a sales pitch in your ear.
