Our observations based on neighbors who've moved out/moved in:
VLS agents move homes MUCH quicker on average (with a few rare exceptions) than MLS agents. I've also seen a few MLS-listed homes switch to VLS homes after a few months being on the market, and then selling within a week or two.
So - if you're really wanting to just move out - I'd go with VLS. We've heard that the commission for a VLS home is higher, so we'd get less if we listed with them as opposed to an MLS agent. But it seems that the "savings" is offset by however many months you're stuck paying amenity fees, lawn care fees, utilities, and taxes on two properties, if you just want to unload the home and get to your next home.
