What does flat fee MLS cost in Cary, NC?
Here is each company’s entry plan that puts a home on the MLS. Totals use the typical $613,400 Cary home. They leave out the excise tax, your attorney and any buyer’s agent pay, since you’d owe those with any company. Gaps read “not stated” because the company’s page didn’t say.
| Entry plan | Upfront | At closing | Total on $613,400 | MLS photos | Term | Changes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Beycome Basic | $99 | $0 | $99 | Max Doorify allows | Up to 24 months** | Unlimited, free |
| Brokerless $99 plan | $99 | $0 | $99 | 6 | 6 months | Free status changes |
| Homecoin | $149 on its FL and TX pages | $0 | $149 if that price applies | Max | 12 months | 10 free |
| OwnerEntry Silver | $199 | None stated | $199 | Unlimited | 6 months | Unlimited |
| HomeZu Silver (NC) | $299 | None shown on its NC page | $299 | 3 | 6 months | not stated |
| ISoldMyHouse Get LISTED | $299 | None stated | $299 | 10 | 6 months | not stated |
| ByOwner MLS plan | $295 | 0.25% | $1,828.50 | 50 | 6 months | not stated |
| Unreal Estate Basic | $85 | 0.5% | $3,152 | 15 | 6 months | 2 |
| List With Freedom Gold | $89 | 0.5% | $3,156 | 25 | 6 months | Unlimited, free |
| Houzeo Bronze | $399 | $0 | $399 | 25 | 6 months | 10 |
Two plans tie at $99 with nothing at closing. They aren’t the same listing, though. Brokerless gives 6 photos for 6 months. Beycome Basic fills every photo slot Doorify allows and stays up for the longest term the state and MLS allow.** In a town where many buyers relocate for jobs and shop from far away, the photos are the first showing.
The low stickers can mislead. Unreal Estate and List With Freedom start under $90, yet the 0.5% at closing makes them two of the most expensive entry plans here at Cary prices.
Can you get a no closing cost mortgage in Cary, NC?
Yes, in the sense most lenders mean it. A “no closing cost” mortgage usually means you take lender credits. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau explains that lender credits lower your closing costs up front, in exchange for a higher interest rate. The costs don’t vanish. You pay them over time in the rate.
Cary buyers have two other ways to shrink cash at closing. The first is to ask the seller to pay part of the closing costs in the offer. That’s a point of negotiation, not a rule. The second is a commission credit. Beycome’s Cary buyer program is open to every buyer on homes listed by other agents, with no upfront fee. We keep 1% of the price (minimum $1,499) and credit the rest of the buyer-agent commission at closing, with lender approval.
Here’s an example. If a seller offers 2.5% to the buyer’s agent on a $613,400 home, that’s $15,335. Beycome keeps $6,134 and you get $9,201 back at closing. The credit can’t apply where no buyer-agent commission is offered, like most FSBO homes, or on homes listed by Beycome sellers. Ask your lender how a credit and a no closing cost loan work together before you lock a rate.
Doorify MLS: the Cary-based MLS behind every listing
Doorify MLS was called Triangle MLS until September 2024, and it’s based in Cary. It covers the Triangle and nearby counties, so one listing reaches agents in Cary, Apex, Morrisville, Raleigh and Durham at once. Beycome lists Cary homes on Doorify (Beycome internal data, November 2026).
These Doorify rules, from our Doorify MLS page, shape the listing:
- Public remarks can run up to 4,000 characters, so there’s room for school assignments, HOA dues and the age of the roof.
- Cumulative days on market reset only after 30 days off the market.
- Showings run through ShowingTime, set up with your email and phone.
The days-on-market rule matters most. Pulling a listing and relisting a week later won’t make it look new. Price it to sell in the first two weeks instead. If you want help with that, our guide on listing a Cary home on the MLS by owner walks through pricing and the remarks.
Cary vs. Apex and Morrisville prices
Values differ a lot across western Wake County, and percentage fees follow the price. Zillow’s September 2026 index puts Cary at $613,400, Apex at $588,800 and Morrisville at $471,600. Morrisville fell 4.7% in a year, the most of the three. A 0.5% closing fee is $3,067 in Cary, $2,944 in Apex and $2,358 in Morrisville. A $99 flat fee is $99 in all three.
What else does a Cary seller pay in Wake County?
The excise tax is the fixed one. Under G.S. 105-228.30, North Carolina charges $1 for each $500 of the price, or part of $500. The seller pays it to the Wake County Register of Deeds. On $613,400 that’s 1,227 units, or $1,227. A small part of Cary sits in Chatham County, which collects the same state rate.
You’ll also pay a closing attorney, since North Carolina treats most closing work as legal work. Then there’s the due diligence fee, which runs the other way. The buyer may pay it to you for the right to walk away during due diligence. The NC Real Estate Commission’s Q&A says the buyer usually doesn’t get it back after terminating, unless you agreed otherwise.
Before an offer, give the buyer the state’s property disclosure and the mineral and oil and gas rights disclosure, under Chapter 47E. Our guide to selling a Cary home without a realtor covers the HOA paperwork too.
