Key takeaways
- The typical home value in Atlanta was $380,300 in September 2026 (Zillow Home Value Index), down 1.9% over the year.
- A 3% listing commission on that value is $11,409.00. Beycome Basic is $99, paid once.
- FMLS charges .0012 times the contract price at closing in 23 metro counties. That is $456.36 on a $380,300 sale.
- Beycome can list on Georgia MLS but not on FMLS. We say so up front because it matters in Atlanta.
Start a $99 flat fee MLS listing for your Atlanta home. It’s usually live on Georgia MLS within hours once the questionnaire is complete.
Georgia MLS or FMLS: which one will your Atlanta listing be on?
Most US cities have one main MLS. Atlanta has two, and both say they are the biggest. Georgia MLS, based in Tucker, calls itself “Georgia’s Largest Real Estate Marketplace.” FMLS calls itself “the largest and first MLS in the state of Georgia” and says it has served Georgia agents for over 67 years.
Both cover the core of the metro: Fulton, DeKalb, Cobb, Gwinnett and more. Our own Georgia MLS page lists 158 Georgia counties in its coverage. Our Atlanta MLS-by-owner walkthrough shows the listing form. Our FMLS page lists 23, all in metro and north Georgia. Both MLSs allow up to 100 photos.
Here is the plain fact for Beycome sellers. We list on Georgia MLS. Our FMLS page says “Beycome can’t list on First MLS.” Your listing still goes from Georgia MLS to Zillow, Realtor.com, Redfin and more than 100 other sites. If being inside FMLS itself matters to you, you need a broker who is an FMLS member, and you should price in the fees below.
Small detail: Georgia MLS gives you 3,950 characters of public remarks, FMLS gives 10,000. Write tight and lead with the schools and updates.
The FMLS fee at closing, worked out on an Atlanta price
A brokerage support page that lists FMLS fees shows “Closings: .0012 x Contract Sales Price” for Barrow, Bartow, Cherokee, Chattooga, Cobb, Dawson, DeKalb, Douglas, Floyd, Forsyth, Fulton, Gordon, Gwinnett, Hall, Haralson, Jackson, Lumpkin, Newton, Paulding, Pickens, Polk, Rockdale and Walton counties. The same page lists a $25 withdrawal fee.
On the typical Atlanta home value of $380,300, 0.12% is $456.36. That fee is charged to the listing broker. Flat fee companies pass it on in different ways:
- Houzeo’s Georgia page says: “If your listing is in First MLS, an additional 0.3% due at closing is applicable for all plans.” On $380,300, that is $1,140.90.
- Fizber’s FAQ mentions a 0.12% fee at settlement for FMLS.
- HomeZu’s Georgia page lists “FMLS Where Available” and shows no closing fee.
None of that makes FMLS a bad choice. It means the “flat” fee isn’t flat once FMLS is involved, so ask for the closing number in writing. We explain where that charge comes from in the special closing fee in metro Atlanta FMLS.
How much does a flat fee MLS listing in Atlanta cost?
Between $89 and $399 upfront for an entry plan, as of October 20, 2026. The fee at closing is what moves the total: from $0 to $1,990.50 on a typical Atlanta home, depending on the company and on whether FMLS is involved.
Each row is the company’s cheapest plan that puts a home on an MLS. Totals use the typical Atlanta home value and leave out costs every seller pays anyway (transfer tax, attorney, any buyer-agent pay you agree to). Order is A to Z after Beycome.

Same $99, different listing. Beycome Basic and Brokerless both cost $99 with nothing at closing. At that price, Beycome includes the maximum photos the MLS allows (100 on Georgia MLS) and a listing term up to the maximum the state and MLS allow. Brokerless $99 includes 6 photos and 6 months. Its $188 plan raises that to more photos and 12 months.
Each company in one paragraph
Beycome
$99 Basic, $399 Enhanced with professional photos, or Concierge at $1,399, where an expert works with you on pricing, negotiation and paperwork, and every decision stays yours. On Basic and Enhanced, our Artur AI assistant helps you read and answer offers. E-sign, unlimited edits and ShowingTime scheduling come with every plan. Georgia MLS only, not FMLS.
Brokerless
Same $99 sticker and no closing fee, which is good for sellers. The entry plan is lean: 6 photos, 6 months. You handle every negotiation yourself, which its site says plainly.
Fizber
MLS Boost shows $270 against a struck-through $295, but the checkout values in its page code still read $295. Six photos for six months. Its FAQ flags the 0.12% FMLS fee, which is honest and relevant in Atlanta.
Homecoin
$149 with “Never!” as its answer on closing fees. Max photos, 12 months and 10 free changes. A good fit for sellers who want a longer term and don’t need offer tools.
HomeZu
Georgia pricing differs from its Florida and Texas pages: $299, $399 and $599, all six months, with 3, 25 and 40 photos. The Georgia page shows no closing fee and mentions FMLS where available.
Houzeo
Bronze is a real flat fee at $399 with 25 photos and 6 months. Above Bronze, Houzeo’s own notes say “a minimum commission of $999 is applicable,” and in Atlanta the First MLS surcharge of 0.3% applies “for all plans.” Houzeo covers more states than we do and its higher plans include broker help. Read its cancellation note too: if offers came in while you were listed, “the listing agent’s commission is still owed.”
ISoldMyHouse
$299 for a short six-month listing with 6 to 10 photos, or $399 for max photos and 12 months. No closing fee is stated.

Get up to 2% back at closing
On homes listed by other agents, Beycome credits you up to 2% of the price at closing (1% kept, $1,499 minimum; not on FSBO homes or homes listed by Beycome sellers).
Buy a home →List With Freedom
The lowest sticker here at $89, plus a 0.5% compliance fee when the home sells. On the typical Atlanta home value, that brings Gold to $1,990.50. Unlimited free changes are a plus.
We also checked Unreal Estate, but our captured prices were for Florida and Texas, not Georgia, so it isn’t in the table.
The $25 that comes with a Georgia MLS listing
We advertise “cancel anytime, free,” and in Georgia that needs an asterisk. Georgia MLS charges a mandatory $25 cancellation fee, and we pass it on when a live Georgia MLS listing is cancelled. A listing that is under contract can’t be cancelled. We don’t refund the package once the listing is live. There’s simply no other charge to stop.
FMLS has its own $25 withdrawal fee, so this cost comes with the Atlanta MLSs, not with any one flat fee company.
Closing in Atlanta: an attorney, a PT-61 and $380.30 in transfer tax
An attorney runs the closing. In 2003 the Supreme Court of Georgia approved an advisory opinion that preparing deeds and running closings for others is the practice of law. In practice, every Atlanta sale closes with a Georgia attorney. Budget for that fee whichever listing plan you pick.
Transfer tax. The Georgia Department of Revenue sets the rate at $1 for the first $1,000 and 10 cents for each extra $100 (O.C.G.A. 48-6-1). On $380,300, that is $380.30. The state says the seller is liable, though contracts often move it to the buyer.
Form PT-61. The transfer tax goes with a PT-61 declaration that is now filed online. Your closing attorney normally handles it. See our Georgia FSBO contract guide for the deal itself.
Fewer Atlanta homes are changing hands this fall. Redfin counted 1,490 home sales in the city in September 2026, down 14.7% from September 2025, according to its Atlanta housing market data. With fewer sales to go around, it pays to be on the MLS that local buyer agents search.

Atlanta questions we get
Which MLS covers Atlanta?
Two do: Georgia MLS and FMLS (First MLS). Both cover Fulton, DeKalb, Cobb and Gwinnett counties. Beycome lists on Georgia MLS.
How do I get a flat fee MLS listing in Atlanta?
Pick a flat fee broker that belongs to the MLS you want, pay, then fill in the details and photos. With Beycome, your Atlanta home goes on Georgia MLS for $99, usually within hours once the questionnaire is complete.
Is a flat fee MLS listing in Atlanta worth it?
Often, if you handle showings and offers. On a $380,300 home, a 3% listing commission is $11,409, while a $99 flat fee with $0 at closing is $99. Commissions are negotiable and that figure is only an example.
Can Beycome put my Atlanta home on FMLS?
No. Our FMLS page says we can’t list on First MLS. We list on Georgia MLS, which sends your listing to Zillow, Realtor.com, Redfin and 100+ sites.
What does FMLS charge at closing?
A fee of .0012 times the contract price in 23 metro counties, per a brokerage’s published FMLS fee list. On $380,300 that is $456.36.
How much is a flat fee MLS listing in Atlanta?
Entry plans run from $89 to $399 upfront as of October 2026. Some add 0.3% to 0.5% at closing. Beycome Basic is $99 with $0 at closing.
Do I need an attorney to sell my Atlanta house by owner?
For the closing, yes. Georgia closings are handled by a licensed attorney under a 2003 Supreme Court of Georgia ruling.
Is it really free to cancel a Beycome listing in Georgia?
There’s no Beycome fee, but Georgia MLS charges a mandatory $25 that we pass on. You can’t cancel once under contract, and there’s no refund once the listing is live.
Commission figures are examples only. Real estate commissions are not set by law or by NAR rules and are fully negotiable. Sellers choose whether to offer any compensation to a buyer’s agent, and how much; since August 17, 2024, those offers can’t be shown on the MLS.
Prices as of October 2026, read on each company’s own site on October 20, 2026. “$0 at closing” means no Beycome fee at closing; transfer tax, attorney fees and any buyer-agent pay you agree to still apply. * No cancellation fee from Beycome, except the mandatory $25 Georgia MLS fee; listings under contract can’t be cancelled; no refund once listed. ** Listing term is the maximum the state and MLS allow (24 months; 12 in MD and PA).
