Flat Fee Real Estate

I had the pleasure of working with Matt to sell my condo and he did an excellent job in a tough market.

Matt's deep local market knowledge and his ability to address challenges impressed me from the start. Throughout the process, he was communicative and proactive, making it a smooth experience.

I highly recommend Matt for his professionalism and caring approach. He made a challenging situation more manageable, and I'm very satisfied with the results. And his commission saved me money. I will use him again.

Matt was amazing to work with while buying my first home. He explained a lot of things I didn't know about, and was super helpful in the (long) process of finding the right place. He worked with me just how I wanted. I could take my time and contact him with properties I was interested in, and not be pushed into anything at all. Flat Fee is definitely the way to go with high home prices these days. Getting a check back after closing for the difference from a traditional percent commission was great!

I had a great experience working with Matt Havers of Flat Fee Real Estate. He was very responsive to my questions and made the sale of my home a very smooth process. I trusted his method of pricing and his recommendations for preparing to sell. I was really pleased with the quality of the house listing images and write-up. We had a signed contract with a very qualified buyer in less than a week. It's beyond me why anyone would choose any other real estate company! Flat Fee provided all of the service at a MUCH lower cost than all the others. Take a look at their website, and you'll see that properties move very quickly. They are definitely doing something/a lot right! Thank you Matt!

Rob did a great job representing us in the sale of our home. This was the second time we have used flat fee and the service has been excellent both times. They provide the same high quality service, marketing, photos and drone footage at a fraction of the cost of a traditional real estate broker. Thanks again!!!!!

Matt Havers from Flat Fee represented me in two sales of multi unit residential apartment buildings in the Central VT area. Matt is very knowledgeable in all aspects and was very prompt, diligent and conscientious. I would highly recommend Matt and Flat Fee for your transactions and would also say to those with any trepidation regarding their fee structure to have no fear - you will get as much or more compared to the traditional realtors.

Matt was such a pleasure to work with, we used Flat Fee to both sell and purchase a house. After seeing what they offered we will never go back to the traditional way of buying and selling, this is our third purchase and never have we had a realtor share their commission..but with flat fee they do! Not only did we save money selling our house but when purchasing we got a nice check that we were then able to turn around and invest into our home. As for Matt he was super professional always knowledgeable and responsive! We highly recommend you contacting him if you are on the market, not only did we gain a new home but we also feel like we gained a friend!

Matt Havers is real professional. With his help we've sold our home in 7 weeks from first phone call to Matt to money in a bank. I strongly recommend his service. Thanks Matt.

We chose to use Jeff Amato for the sale of our condo and the purchase of our new home as he was highly recommended to us by a close friend. We found his attentiveness and knowledge was stellar. Jeff is very informative and always very quick to respond to us with any questions or concerns we had through the whole process.

In addition, using the Flat Fee model for the sale and the purchase saved us quite a bit of money. In all, we saved $9,115 ($3,045 - sale and $6,070 - purchase) vs. the traditional (6%) model on our sale/purchase.

I worked with Jeff Amato from Flat Fee. Jeff impressed me starting with our first conversation. He was flexible, responsive, supportive and reassuring through the entire home buying process. He is easy to talk to and provides uncomplicated explanations during an overwhelming time. On top of all of that, we also got a rebate check for just over $4,000 for using Jeff and Flat Fee Real Estate. We are so happy that we had Jeff by our side during the purchase of our first home. I would highly recommend using Jeff to help you buy or sell your next home!

We had a great experience working with Jeff Amato and Flat Fee to sell our home. Jeff’s expertise and guidance was important and helpful through every phase of the listing and sale process. Through Flat Fee’s business model, we saved $22,360 compared to a traditional seller broker commission.

We had such a wonderful experience working with Jeff Amato as our buyer's agent through Flat Fee VT. As first time home buyers it was important for us to have someone who could answer all our questions and guide us through the home buying process smoothly. Jeff was fast to respond to all email, phone, and text correspondence and he answered all of our many questions with speed and precision. Jeff was trustworthy, genuine, and worked with the utmost professionalism while establishing a positive relationship with us as his clients. Jeff helped us negotiate and close on our dream home and in the process he saved us $10,250 which was a huge savings versus the traditional 6% model most real estate agents follow. We so enjoyed having Jeff as our agent and would highly recommend him to anyone else looking to have a positive and smooth home-buying process in the future.

Jeff was invaluable in the purchase of our first home! He was responsive, efficient, and highly knowledgeable - on top of being an all around great guy to work with. We worked briefly with another agent (at another agency) who we didn't feel like had the time for us and decided to make a switch. It was night and day! We couldn't have imagined a smoother or more positive experience. At every step in the buying and negotiating process we were completely confident that he was working for our best interest and could trust his recommendations and guidance. Being first time buyers, it was a relief to have someone with the knowledge and clarity that Jeff brought. We enthusiastically recommend Jeff whenever we are talking to someone who is thinking about buying a house. The 5k check that came in the mail a week later was a great bonus too!

Jeff Amato came recommended to me by two other couples who just recently bought their own first homes the previous year (always a good start). Then I found out about Flat Fee Realty's pay model (basically they only take $2,500 or 3% of the typical 6% a seller pays, and they give the difference back to you!). It sounds too good to be true. It's not! I already got back around $2k from my home purchase earlier this month.

Once I started looking, I quickly realized that a home in my price point meant you had to act VERY fast if you wanted to get an offer in. Jeff was very responsive and helpful in making sure things got done quickly! A big part in why I was able to land my condo before it got caught up in a bidding war!

Knowledgeable of the area. Owns a number of properties himself so the insight on pitfalls and amenities were endlessly helpful. Plus he's generally just an all around personable guy. As a first time homebuyer I would definitely recommend him to others. Get great service and a little bit of money back in your pocket!

My fiancé and I recently bought a home with the help of Flat Fee Vt. Not only did our agent Dave patiently show us numerous houses but repeatedly went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and informed about our decision.

I previously worked with a realtor and the pushy, hurry up and close mentality was obvious and off putting. If you want service, honesty, and a hassle free experience I highly recommend Flat Fee. Getting a healthy check in the mail after closing was just the icing on the cake.

My wife and I recently sold our home in Essex Junction and worked with Jeff Amato. I should mention we are not the easiest folks in the world to work with and Jeff couldn't have been more professional or patient. He was fantastic! He always answered our (many) questions in a timely fashion and he kept us apprised during every step of the process. Oh and working with Jeff saved us almost $9,800.00 in Realtor commissions. I would give Jeff and Flat Fee my highest recommendation. This was the best real estate experience we've ever had!

Worked with Matt who is an absolute gem! We're first time homebuyers and in the worst "pandemic" market. Matt was patient, informative and guided us through the whole process from start to finish. I can't imagine going through another realtor and would recommend Matt and Flat Fee 110%

We were introduced to Flat Fee RE from a friend when we were selling our home FSBO. Erin was super easy to deal with and had our listing set up within a few days. We sold our home quickly in a down market and saved thousands on fees.

After exploring all that Flat Fee does, we decided to use Erin again to purchase our next home. In the internet age, where consumers can do so much of the searching and leg work online, I always felt that the archaic commission structure no longer fit the job. We emailed the homes we wanted to look at to Erin and she promptly got all of the SPIRs for us so we could review. After visiting many and finding "our home" she did a great job of helping us through the negotiation process, home inspection, and all paperwork. Closing was a breeze and we ended up with a good deal on a great house AND got money back from the Flat Fee Commission structure.

I would highly recommend Flat Fee - if you're like me and like saving money while getting exceptional service this agency is for you! 5-Stars!

Working with Erin Dupuis at Flat Fee Real Estate was great. We moved to VT from out of state and needed to find and purchase a home quickly (despite lagging inventory). Erin was always available for showings, was great at communicating with us and negotiating with sellers, and is very adept at working within the VT real estate legal realm. She was able to have us sign documents electronically and allowed us to find and close on our new home in a month and a half. Thanks, Erin!

I would highly recommend Flat Fee to anyone looking to purchase real estate in Vermont. They were exactly what I was looking for in a Real Estate agent: Responsive, highly knowledgeable on the in’s and out’s of the Vermont market, detail oriented.

I was not sure about hiring a firm with an alternative model but I am sure happy I did. I was able to save thousands of dollars using Flat Fee and highly recommend them to others who are looking to save money selling their Home.
