The short version
- Each has a real cost: Redfin listing fee is 1% of the sale price, and the mortgage savings claim of up to $12,000 requires financing through partner Rocket Mortgage rather than applying to all sellers; BoomTown pricing across its four tiers (Launch, Core, Grow, Advance) is not published; the site directs buyers to request a demo or call sales instead of listing a figure for any tier
