I've already looked into flat-fee real estate agencies for the DMV because its a ridiculous charge. I don't care if you paid a photographer $350 for a quick shoot and $600 for staging.

Huh. I wish staging was $600! That business is on fire, and the prices cost a fortune.

OP, you can google Flat Fee MLS and find services that will list you. I had to show a house that was listed FSBO once and on MRIS. But, I'm confused about something. Are you trying to find a buyer directly without an agent so you pay zero commission or would you pay a buyer's agent commission? If you want to get directly to a buyer I don't even think MLS is the way to do it.

You can just write 0%?

You can, but then, why would you want it in MRIS? That's the agent software and so no agent would ever show that property.
