Seller FAQ

How is Stephen's listing commission structured?+

Total listing commission is negotiated in the listing agreement and is typically split between the listing and buyer's brokerages. Following the 2024 NAR settlement, the listing-side and buyer-side commissions are negotiated separately — no automatic offer of compensation in the MLS. Stephen will walk through every fee in writing before you sign anything.

What does Stephen pay for vs. what do I pay for?+

Stephen covers professional photography, drone, the MLS launch, and standard syndication out of the listing commission. Sellers typically cover prep work (paint, repairs, staging if recommended), pre-listing inspections if elected, and standard closing-side fees. Specific scope is in writing before you sign.

Is it a good time to sell in Las Vegas right now?+

The GLVAR MLS currently shows 13,973 active Las Vegas listings and roughly 9.7 months of supply, with a median asking price of $479,000. Stephen pulls the specific months-of-supply, list-to-close ratio, and days-on-market for your exact street and price band before recommending a list date.

How long do Las Vegas homes take to sell right now?+

Days-on-market varies block-by-block — well-prepped, accurately-priced inventory in the Las Vegas valley typically sells in under 30 days, while stale or aspirationally-priced inventory can sit much longer. Stephen pulls neighborhood-specific DOM and list-to-close before pricing any listing.

Should I sell before I buy, or buy before I sell?+

Depends on your equity position, financing flexibility, and the specific markets on both sides. Stephen runs both scenarios with real numbers — including bridge-loan and HELOC options — before recommending a sequence.

Do you handle off-market and pocket listings?+

Yes — when discretion or pre-MLS pricing testing is the right strategy, Stephen runs whisper listings and broker-only previews through his network. Available for any price band but most common at $1.5M+.
