Looking to avoid paying a traditional 2.5%–3% listing commission? Carlsbad Flat Fee Broker Kent Roberts helps local homeowners sell with full-service MLS support—for one transparent flat fee. At Carlsbad Flat Fee, we help you keep more of your home’s equity while receiving professional guidance from a licensed California real estate broker.
Meet Your Local Carlsbad Flat Fee Broker

I’m Kent Roberts, a licensed California real estate broker (DRE #01432188) with a background in real estate, finance, and small business ownership. I launched Carlsbad Flat Fee to give North County homeowners a smart way to sell—providing MLS exposure and professional support without giving up thousands in commission.
With our fixed-fee MLS model, you receive the same listing exposure you’d expect from a traditional agent—plus direct broker support from start to finish. Whether you’re selling a $750K townhome in Calavera Hills or a $2M+ ocean-view home in La Costa, we tailor your listing strategy to the neighborhood, buyer profile, and market timing.
Before listing, I review recent comparables, market conditions, and your home’s features to position it competitively on the MLS and syndicated sites. The goal is to support a smooth, well-informed sale—without inflated fees.
