1% vs 6% Commission — What Columbus, IN Sellers Should Know

If you’re thinking about selling your home in Columbus, Indiana, the biggest question is often about commission. The traditional 6% real estate fee can take a big bite out of your equity. That’s why more local sellers are turning to the 1% Lists model — a full-service, low-commission way to sell for top dollar and keep more of what’s yours.

Quick Self-Assessment: Is a 1% Listing Right for You?

  • You have equity you’d rather keep instead of paying out in fees.
  • You want full professional service — not DIY or discount corners.
  • You’re ready to sell within the next 60 days.

If that sounds like you, connect with Drew Wyant and the 1% Lists Indiana team for a quick consultation.

Home Strategies: How to Maximize What You Keep

Every seller wants to save money — but savings mean nothing without results. Here are key steps that make a difference:

  • Prep smart: Focus on light repairs, decluttering, and professional photos.
  • Price right: Use local market data to position your home competitively.
  • Promote broadly: Make sure your home appears on MLS, Zillow, Realtor.com, and social media.
