1% Listing Commission
OPTL Realty gives sellers a smarter way to list with professional marketing, strategic pricing, expert negotiation, Zillow Showcase exposure, and full transaction support, all through a streamlined 1% listing commission model designed to help you keep more of your equity.
Most sellers assume a lower listing commission means reduced service. OPTL was built to eliminate that tradeoff. Our model reduces inefficiency without reducing service quality.
Every listing is supported by professional marketing, enhanced exposure, strategic pricing, experienced negotiation, and full transaction coordination from listing to closing.
Led by Keith Ferriell, Principal Broker and former U.S. Department of Justice Special Agent, OPTL brings discipline, strategy, and negotiation strength to every listing.
OPTL utilizes Zillow Showcase Listings to provide sellers with enhanced visibility on Zillow, the most visited real estate website in the United States.
Showcase Listings provide enhanced presentation, premium placement opportunities, targeted buyer engagement, and exclusive email distribution not available with standard listings. Your property is promoted directly to buyers actively searching for homes with similar price points, features, and location parameters.
By design, Zillow limits Showcase Listings to no more than 10% of agents in the Louisville market, creating a controlled level of exclusivity. As a result, OPTL listings benefit from exposure and marketing tools that the vast majority of agents in the market cannot offer.
Principal Broker Keith Ferriell first implemented Zillow Showcase Listings in Louisville, Kentucky while serving as owner and team lead of the Keith Ferriell Real Estate Team, and has continued using the platform to support listing exposure and buyer engagement.
Full brokerage representation, reduced listing-side commission. Everything a traditional listing delivers, for 1%.

A full-service brokerage model that maximizes exposure and delivers professional representation while reducing listing-side commission costs.
Professional photography, 360° virtual tours, an in-house licensed drone pilot, and measured floor plans.
Enhanced placement on Zillow, the most-visited real estate site in the country, with premium presentation and targeted buyer engagement. Zillow caps Showcase at the top 10% of agents per market, and Keith was first to bring it to Louisville.
