ListOneNJ recently represented the seller of 41 Moak Drive in Hazlet, New Jersey, which closed for $739,900 — 100% of its final asking price. The ListOneNJ listing-side commission was just 1% of the sale price, with buyer-agent compensation handled separately.
The Numbers
| Property | 41 Moak Dr, Hazlet, NJ 07730 |
| Final Asking Price | $739,900 |
| Sale Price | $739,900 |
| Sale-to-Final-List Ratio | 100% |
| ListOneNJ Listing Commission | 1% |
| 1% Listing Commission in Dollars | $7,399 |
What Does a 1% Listing Commission Mean on a $739,900 Sale?
The ListOneNJ listing commission on this transaction was $7,399. To put that number into perspective, a hypothetical 3% listing-side commission on the same $739,900 sale price would equal $22,197.
For homeowners evaluating how much it costs to sell, that is why it makes sense to look at commission percentages in actual dollars. ListOneNJ’s 1% New Jersey listing service is designed to reduce the listing-side commission while still providing professional brokerage representation.
The 3% figure above is a hypothetical comparison and does not represent a fee quoted to this seller. Buyer-agent compensation is separate and is not included in either listing-side commission figure. Real estate commissions are negotiable.
A Lower Listing Commission Does Not Mean the Home Has to Sell for Less
One of the most important questions sellers should ask when considering a lower-commission brokerage is whether reducing the listing fee requires them to compromise on marketing, exposure or sale price.
The sale of 41 Moak Drive provides a useful real-world example. The home ultimately closed for $739,900, exactly matching its final asking price, while the seller paid ListOneNJ a 1% listing-side commission.
One transaction does not establish what every home will sell for, and no brokerage can guarantee a particular sale price. It does demonstrate, however, that a lower listing commission does not inherently require a seller to accept a lower price for the property.

Full-Service Marketing With a Streamlined Commission Structure
ListOneNJ is designed for New Jersey homeowners who want professional representation without automatically committing a large percentage of their home’s value to the listing side of the commission.
Our 1% listing service is built around the same core objective as any effective residential listing strategy: prepare the property for the market, establish a defensible pricing strategy, expose the listing to qualified buyers, coordinate showings, communicate offers and help move the transaction from listing through closing.
Presentation is also part of that process. ListOneNJ provides professional real estate photography as part of its listing service, and sellers can view examples of our 1% listing professional photography to see how homes are presented to buyers online.
The distinction is the fee structure. Instead of tying the listing-side fee to a substantially larger percentage of the sale price, ListOneNJ charges a 1% listing commission.
Why Commission Percentage Matters More as Home Prices Rise
Real estate commissions are calculated as a percentage of the sale price, so seemingly small differences in percentage can translate into substantial dollar amounts.
On a $739,900 transaction, the difference between a 1% listing fee and a hypothetical 3% listing fee is $14,798.
That is why New Jersey sellers should evaluate commission in actual dollars — not merely percentages — when comparing brokerage options.

What About Buyer-Agent Compensation?
ListOneNJ’s 1% fee applies to the listing side of the transaction. Any compensation paid to a buyer’s brokerage is separate.
Buyer-agent compensation can affect the seller’s total transaction costs, so sellers should distinguish between the listing broker’s fee and any amount ultimately paid toward buyer-broker compensation when comparing commission structures.
For 41 Moak Drive, the headline result remains straightforward: the seller paid ListOneNJ a 1% listing commission and the property sold for its full final asking price of $739,900.
