Minneapolis homes go on NorthstarMLS, and a flat fee listing there costs $89 to $399 upfront with the seven companies we compared. Beycome’s is $99 with $0 at closing. Before you list, Minneapolis also requires a Truth in Sale of Housing evaluation. And watch closing fees: 0.5% of the $328,400 typical Minneapolis home value is $1,642.00.

Step one in Minneapolis: the TISH evaluation
Minneapolis has a rule most cities don’t. Before you sell a house, duplex or townhouse, you need a Truth in Sale of Housing check, called TISH. You must have the full report before you can show the home. That’s true when you sell by owner, too.
Here’s how it works, per the city’s TISH pages:
- You hire an evaluator with a city license. They aren’t city staff and set their own prices, so ask a few.
- The evaluator looks at the home inside and out and files a report online. It lists any repairs you must make and has an energy report.
- The report is valid for two years, or one sale.
- You must display a copy so buyers can see it at showings.
- If you don’t do the repairs before you close, the buyer signs a form and must do them within 90 days of closing.
Two tips. Fix the easy things before the evaluator comes. Work done first won’t show on the report. And book the check before you pay for your listing. Without the report, you can’t hold showings.

Deed tax, title fees, the TISH evaluation and any buyer’s agent pay are extra with every company, so they’re not in the totals.
Photos and term at the same $99
Beycome Basic and Brokerless’s starter plan both cost $99 and charge $0 at closing. Beycome Basic carries as many photos as NorthstarMLS takes and lasts the longest term Minnesota and the MLS allow.** Brokerless’s $99 plan carries 6 photos for 6 months. Its $188 plan adds months and photos.
A Minneapolis home often has a lot to show: the built-ins in a 1920s bungalow, or a condo’s view of the river. Six photos leave most of it out. Homecoin’s $149 plan also gets max photos and 12 months, with no closing fee.

List With Freedom Platinum Plus is $395 plus 0.25%, or $1,216.00, with a coordinator but no negotiator. Here’s what Beycome Concierge includes.
