The MLS Dayton agents work from
Dayton REALTORS dates back to 1909 and has more than 2,800 members across the Miami Valley. Among other services, it runs the Multiple Listing Service that Dayton-area agents use, the Dayton REALTORS MLS. Houzeo’s Ohio page credits its Dayton data to the Dayton Area Board of REALTORS.
The MLS is busy. In September 2026 it logged 1,261 single-family and condo sales and $386 million in volume. Through September, 11,307 homes had closed, up 2.3% from 2025. A listing that isn’t in this MLS misses most Dayton buyer’s agents, so ask any flat fee company which MLS it uses before you pay. Beycome lists Dayton homes there. Brokerless and List With Freedom also name the Dayton MLS on their Ohio pages.

Photos and term: two $99 plans compared
Beycome Basic and Brokerless’s starter plan both cost $99 with $0 at closing. Beycome Basic includes as many photos as the Dayton MLS accepts and runs for the longest term Ohio and the MLS allow.** Brokerless’s $99 plan has 6 photos for 6 months, and its $188 plan steps up to 12 months and more photos.
On a Dayton home, the extra photos earn their keep. A brick Colonial in Oakwood and a newer two-story in Beavercreek sell on different details, and 6 photos rarely show a whole house. Homecoin’s $149 Ohio plan is another one with max photos and 12 months, and no fee at closing.
Full service against full service
If you’d like help with offers, compare top plans. Beycome Concierge is $999 (list price $1,399, for a limited time) with $0 at closing, and a person negotiates for you. Houzeo Platinum is $499 plus 1.25% at closing with a $999 minimum, or $2,222.75 on the typical home value. List With Freedom Platinum Plus is $395 plus 0.25%, so $739.75, with a coordinator but no negotiator. Here’s what our Concierge plan covers.
One more Dayton point. Houzeo’s $999 minimum matters on lower-priced homes. Its Silver plan’s 0.5% only passes $999 at a $199,800 sale. Below that, you pay the minimum.
Montgomery County conveyance fee
Ohio calls its transfer tax a conveyance fee. State law sets a base of 10 cents per $100 of value, or $1 per $1,000, in ORC 319.54. Counties may add up to 30 cents per $100 under ORC 322.02.
Montgomery County’s total is $3 per $1,000 of the sale price, plus 50 cents per parcel, per the county auditor’s deed transfer page. On a typical $137,900 home, that’s about $414. It’s collected by the county auditor when the deed is transferred.
Your purchase contract says who pays it. Put it on your net sheet either way, along with title and any buyer’s agent pay you agree to.
The Ohio disclosure form, and the three-day window
Ohio sellers of homes with one to four units must fill out the state’s Residential Property Disclosure Form under ORC 5302.30. You give a signed copy to the buyer as soon as you can.
Timing matters here. If the buyer gets the form, or an amended one, after signing the contract, they can cancel. They have three business days after receiving it to deliver a signed, dated cancellation, and they get their deposit back. That right ends 30 days after you accepted the offer, or at closing if that comes first.
So hand over the form before the contract, not after. Some sales are exempt, such as new homes no one has lived in and sales between spouses in a divorce. Beycome includes the Ohio form with every plan.
