Sell your Maine home without a realtor — or their commission.
Get your listing on Maine Listings, AI-guided pricing from Tanner, and a licensed Maine broker to keep you compliant — from listing to closing, for a flat fee.
Built for how homes actually sell in Maine.
Maine has its own rules. Biddlee is built around those specifics — not a generic national template.
Maine Listings exposure
Your listing goes on Maine Listings, the statewide MLS operated by MREIS, syndicated to Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.com.
Closing guidance
Maine does not legally require an attorney at closing, though attorney involvement is customary and widely recommended — many transactions use a title company or closing agent instead.
Disclosure guardrails
Maine requires a detailed seller disclosure. Tanner AI flags what applies to your specific property.
Flat-fee pricing
Pay $99–$399 instead of the 5–6% commission typical on a Maine sale.

What Maine law actually requires.
A few things are non-negotiable when you sell in Maine. Tanner walks you through each one for your specific property.
| Requirement | What it means for you |
|---|---|
| Property Disclosure Statement | Maine requires sellers to complete a detailed, statewide disclosure form covering structure, systems, water/septic, and known defects — this is mandatory, not optional. |
| Lead paint disclosure | Required for homes built before 1978, per federal and Maine law. |
| Attorney involvement | Not legally required, but customary — most sellers use an attorney or title company to handle the closing and transfer tax filing. |
| Local flood-risk rules | Some municipalities apply additional flood-zone disclosure requirements — check with your town. |
| Real estate transfer tax | $2.20 per $1,000 of sale price, split equally between buyer and seller, paid at recording. |
Rates and requirements vary by municipality and county and can change. Verify current figures and requirements for your specific property with a Maine real estate attorney before listing.

Maine seller questions.
Can I sell my house without a realtor in Maine?
Yes. Maine doesn't require a seller to use a real estate agent, and an attorney isn't legally required at closing either, though it's customary. Biddlee connects you with a licensed broker to list on Maine Listings (MREIS), the statewide MLS, so your home reaches Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.com.
Is Maine a disclosure state for home sellers?
Yes — unlike some neighboring states, Maine requires sellers to complete a detailed Property Disclosure Statement covering the home's systems, history, and known defects. This is a meaningful difference from Massachusetts or New Hampshire's buyer-beware approach.
Do I need an attorney to sell a house in Maine?
No, not legally. Attorney involvement is customary and widely recommended in Maine, but many transactions are handled by title companies or closing agents instead.
How much does it cost to sell a house in Maine without an agent?
With Biddlee, Maine sellers pay a flat $99–$399 depending on plan, plus a 0.25% compliance fee at sale, instead of a 5–6% listing commission. You'll also pay your half of the state's real estate transfer tax ($2.20 per $1,000 of sale price, split with the buyer) at closing.
What MLS does Biddlee use in Maine?
Biddlee lists Maine sellers on Maine Listings, the MREIS-operated statewide MLS, through a licensed partner broker, with syndication to Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.com.
