How do our fees stack up to a traditional brokerage’s commission rate? Plug in the numbers on your home to see how we compare.
Note: A 6% commission fee to a listing agent isn’t usually just 6%. It’s only 6% if your property is fully paid off. If you’re still paying your mortgage, you end up paying a higher percentage against your equity — sometimes, upwards of 20%. Our calculator estimates your adjusted commission (the percentage of your equity you’d lose with a traditional listing agent).
You don’t need to be an expert in real estate or know all the answers in order to sell your own home. You need a support system. We give you the tools to be successful, from premium signage and photography to hands-on support from agents.
Our tiered approach means you have the flexibility to try selling on your own, with the peace of mind of knowing we’re here if you need us. You can level-up any time for additional support from experienced agents.

“The process went so much better than expected. Hiyalita offered useful suggestions for aesthetic improvements and helped find people who could do the work. We assumed we’d wait until after the Super Bowl to list, but in early December, they noticed there was nothing on the market in the price range and suggested listing it then. It was under contract within a few days! They were helpful in negotiating a price and provided regular updates.”

Chicago flat-fee listing services or FSBO?
Flat-fee brokerages in Chicago will list your home on MLS and leave you to your own devices. Signage, photography, staging, and pricing are all left to you. This doesn’t put you in the best position to make a profit.
At Hiyalita, your win is our win. We don’t list your home and leave you out to dry — we provide the support and services for you to successfully sell. Premium signage, pricing strategy, & all.
Traditional Chicago real estate brokerages?
Working with a traditional brokerage comes at a steep price. You don’t pay based on the quality of service you receive — you pay based on your home value. The higher your selling price, the more painful your payout.
Beautiful homes practically sell themselves. You shouldn’t have to shell out tens of thousands of dollars in extra commissions because of it. With Hiyalita, you pay a fair price based on the services rendered (not based on your property value).
This is a unique model for a brokerage. Learn more about how we work.
No, there’s no need to lock in your service level at the jump. All of our engagements start at the Self-Guided level, and you have the flexibility to scale up at any time if you’d like more support.
We maintain your listing for up to 12 months after you sign up, or until your home sells — whichever comes first.
That part is easy. Reach out to your Hiyalita agent and they’ll make that change for you. Payment for the upgrade isn’t required until your home sells.
Our secret to cost reduction is that we never inflated the price to begin with. Brokerages charge a percent of your home value — plus random add-on fees — and chalk their pricing structure up to vague expenses like “marketing.” We cut out the confusion and show you everything that’s included in each plan, so you can choose the level of support you need and save thousands of dollars.
Really, Hiyalita eliminates sell-side commission. However, we do recommend considering a commission to your buyers’ agent to ensure a smooth transaction. Wondering why? We’ll explain during your consultation. Book a consultation
At our Full-Support plan, we help with every step of the transaction except for showings. Why? Because you don’t need us there for them. Buyers want to walk through your home freely with their agent so they can speak openly and envision themselves as owners. (Don’t worry — if the buyer doesn’t have agent representation, we’ll send an agent to attend the showing so that your home is supervised.)
This isn’t much different than the experience you’d get working with a traditional brokerage. Most traditional brokers use lockboxes to enable showings without having a listing agent present (they just don’t tell you upfront). The difference with Hiyalita is that we’re upfront about it and we pass the savings on to you.
Our licensed agents are equipped to help with both sides of the transaction. Hiyalita serves current and future homeowners in Chicagoland.
Let’s get your home sold, too.
