A: No

Q: Why is the listing fee Forfeited if the listing is rejected?

A: Time - The primary reason why money is not refunded for a rejected listing is time. Every submission at STLcomRE.com is manually reviewed, edited and approved. When you purchase a listing at STLcomRE.com you are not just paying for the privilege of posting your commercial property for 90 days you are also paying to have the listing reviewed. This manual review process is a level of quality assurance not found at many sites anymore. In most cases a rejected listing will actually take an editor longer to review than a listing that is submitted in accordance with the listing policies outlined in the Terms and Conditions of this website. This is why the Listing Fee is non-refundable.
