Meydomo vs. Flat-Fee MLS
Flat-fee MLS vendors promise cheap MLS access. The reality: most stop working once your listing posts, leaving you to answer leads, chase paperwork, and stitch together offers. Meydomo keeps going after the listing goes live.
Video idea: Run a split-timeline animation—“post and pray” on the left (missed calls, stacked voicemail) versus Meydomo’s AI answering and booking showings on the right.
Side-by-side comparison
Listing launch & MLS compliance
Typical flat-fee MLS
DIY packet that can take days to approve. Edits often billed per change. Compliance questions routed to email queues.
Meydomo white-glove
Guided intake, licensed broker partner finalises MLS entry, edits included. Rush options as fast as 24 hours.
Why it matters: Speed to market equals first-week showings. Errors trigger MLS fines—Meydomo absorbs the admin overhead.
Lead handling & showing logistics
Typical flat-fee MLS
Calls forward to your phone. If you miss, prospects move on. Texting costs extra or is unavailable. Calendars managed manually.
Meydomo white-glove
AI + human desk answers every call, text, email; books showings, keeps your calendar synced, confirms reminders, logs everything.
Why it matters: Lead velocity is the difference between “post and pray” and “booked solid this weekend.” Speed wins, especially in balanced markets.
Offer management
Typical flat-fee MLS
Offers arrive piecemeal via email. Sellers build their own spreadsheet and chase buyer agents for missing documents.
Meydomo white-glove
Central intake. Offers summarised in a grid with price, financing, contingencies, closing timelines, earnest money, and escalations.
Why it matters: Clean comparisons expose the best net sheet without tunnel vision toward highest price. Faster decisions, stronger counters.
Pricing transparency
Typical flat-fee MLS
$99–$499 headline fee. Lockboxes, pro photos, flyer templates, edits, and contract help add up quickly. Some charge per lead routed.
Meydomo white-glove
$199 today, $999 only when you close. No per-edit, per-call, or per-offer upsells. Buyer-agent incentive stays optional.
Why it matters: Predictable spend breeds confidence. Sellers do not second-guess making edits or pursuing more showings when support is included.

Cost structure on a $400k sale
Numbers cut through marketing copy. On a $400,000 sale, here is the maths that keeps sellers with Meydomo.
| Line item | Flat-fee MLS vendor | Meydomo |
|---|---|---|
| Upfront listing cost | $300–$1,000 (varies by market/package) | $199 (one-time) |
| Add-ons (photos, edits, call routing) | $250–$800 typical (charged per request) | Included |
| Success-based fees | None (but vendor support stops post-listing) | $999 due only at closing |
| Buyer-agent incentive (optional) | Seller decides · 0%–3% | Seller decides · 0%–3% |
The delta is the support during weeks two through six. With Meydomo you retain a dedicated desk without surrendering equity.
Lead handling is the make-or-break
Ask any veteran listing agent what drives offers. The answer is immediate response time. Buyers who call at lunch do not leave voicemails—they ring the next listing. Meydomo’s AI call desk captures those conversations, books the showing, and updates your calendar automatically. The result: more showings, more offers, stronger leverage.
