Sell Your Bynum Home for a Flat Fee
A historic Haw River mill village with character to spare, minutes from Pittsboro and Chapel Hill. Full service, no percentage commission.
About Bynum
Bynum is a former cotton mill village on the Haw River, tucked just off US-15-501 between Pittsboro and Chapel Hill. Its rows of early-1900s mill cottages, the beloved Bynum General Store with its Front Porch music series, and easy access to the river and the Lower Haw River State Natural Area give this little community a character that no subdivision can replicate.
That character is exactly what makes Bynum homes so sought after — and so rarely available. Inventory here is tiny, and when a Bynum cottage or a home in the surrounding countryside does hit the market, it draws immediate attention from Chapel Hill commuters, artists, outdoors lovers, and buyers who have been waiting for years for a chance to get in. UNC and downtown Chapel Hill are about twenty minutes up 15-501; Pittsboro's growing downtown is ten minutes the other way.
When demand is built in, the case for a percentage commission gets thin. On a $450,000 sale, a traditional 2.5% listing commission costs $11,250. With Chatham Flat Fee you pay $5,000 flat — with the same MLS exposure, pricing strategy, and negotiation support.

Why Flat Fee Makes Sense in Bynum
Demand Is Built In
Bynum homes come up rarely and buyers wait for them. When the demand already exists, paying a percentage of your sale price for the introduction makes little sense.
Character Homes Need Careful Pricing
A 1920s mill cottage doesn't fit a standard comp model. We price Bynum's one-of-a-kind homes on what makes them special—and negotiate from that position.
Older Homes, Smoother Closings
Historic homes bring inspection findings, and inspection findings bring negotiations. Having a licensed broker managing due diligence protects your outcome.
