1 Percent Lists FAQs

Discount Realtor Questions

Do you offer pricing advice?

Absolutely! We sell more homes than anyone which means we are generally more “in touch” with the market than other agents who don’t list very many homes. Our first step in the process is to do a market analysis of your property to see how it should be priced. If we don’t get you a great price we aren’t saving you money.

Can you offer advice on preparing to sell my home?

Absolutely! Contact us at (877) 417-3723

Why don’t you charge 3% to list homes like everyone else?

We want to provide value to our clients. If we do a great job and provide a valuable service you will refer us your friends and family. That leads to more profits long term.

How are you profitable if you only charge 1%?

Think of us as a modern technology company that sells real estate. We focus on efficiency at the corporate level and rather than rake in more profit we pass the savings on to you.

Do you work with buyers and sellers?

Absolutely! We work with a lot of buyers and sellers.

Where do you operate currently?

We are a national real estate brokerage franchise expanding into new markets continually. Visit our Franchise Locations page to see if we are in your market.

How long have you been in business?

Kelly and Grant Clayton own the company and officially opened for business end of year 2015. We began franchising in fall 2020 and as of October 2025 have opened 65 franchises nationwide.

What is the total commission I would pay to sell my home?

Our fee is only 1% for a full service agent from first meeting to closing. The seller may choose to pay a buyer’s agent based on current market conditions and what other homes are offering but it is not required to use our services. Read our full article on How Real Estate Commissions Work:

Selling Questions

Do you provide a lockbox?

Every home is equipped with the market/industry standard lockbox.

Don’t all agents do social media marketing?

You’d be shocked and unlike putting something on the MLS or Zillow you can do a very poor job at it. Quality social media marketing is a highly technical skill that most agents simply can’t fathom.

What exactly can you do with social media marketing and why is it important?

Social media is the fastest growing market for selling ANYTHING. As of 2019 around 15% of all home sales originate on social media. We can identify and track buyers. We can put targeted video ads for your listing in front of active buyers. We have very sophisticated systems in place to maximize your exposure on social media.

When listing my home how is it marketed?

Sign in the yard, Multiple Listing System, ALL Real Estate websites (like Zillow and hundreds of others), All Real Estate BROKER websites (like Keller Williams etc), All Real Estate AGENT websites, and a VERY, VERY robust Social Media Marketing campaign (this is what we truly shine at).

How fast will my home sell and what will it sell for?

Unlike many agents, we won’t make a promise that we don’t have the power to keep. We can give you a good idea with a comparative market analysis but we would rather under promise and over deliver.

Do you offer pricing advice?

Absolutely! We sell more homes than anyone which means we are generally more “in touch” with the market than other agents who don’t list very many homes. Our first step in the process is to do a market analysis of your property to see how it should be priced. If we don’t get you a great price we aren’t saving you money.
