Questions, answered.

The things owners ask first.

Where is Porchlight available?

Anywhere in the United States. Rules vary by state, so have a local real estate attorney review your contract before you close.

What does Porchlight cost?

$99 a month. No commission, no cut of your sale, no fee at closing. No contract.

Do I still have to pay the buyer's agent?

Your call, and nothing requires it. Most buyers have an agent, so covering that fee brings more of them through your door, and it still costs far less than a full commission. We're not attorneys, and this isn't legal advice.

How will buyers find my home?

You list it wherever you like: Zillow, a flat-fee MLS service, a yard sign. Porchlight takes over the moment someone reaches out.

What do I put on my listing?

Your Porchlight number and address, instead of your own. That is what routes every call, text, and email into one place.

Is Porchlight giving me legal advice?

No. We explain contracts in plain English, but we're not attorneys. Have a real estate attorney review yours and handle your closing.

Will buyers see my personal number or email?

No. Calls, texts, and email all reach you through your Porchlight line. Your own number and inbox stay private, and you can step away whenever you want.

Am I locked into a contract?

No. Month to month, nothing to sign, no cancellation fee.

Can I use Porchlight with a flat-fee MLS listing?

Yes. List through a flat-fee service, then run every buyer, showing, and offer through Porchlight.

You make the decisions. Porchlight makes sure you can see them clearly.

Early access is limited. Join the list and we will reach out as spots open.
