YOU CAN SELL YOUR HOME AND SAVE THOUSANDS!

Why sell by owner?

1. You can save a lot of money! (Your equity.) Calculate 6% or 7% of what you think your property is worth, then ask yourself: is it worth paying this much to have someone else show my property, act as a go-between to negotiate the sale and coordinate closing schedules with the lender and lawyer or title company? Unless your name is Trump, chances are the answer is NO.


2. You're in control - Nobody is going to tell you what to do. You can advertise where and how you want to (not sit by in frustration because "they're not doing enough"), schedule showings when it's convenient for you, talk directly with prospective buyers yourself, even take your house off the market for awhile if you can't find the right house for you. You aren't obligated to a 3, 6, or 12 month contract... you make your own rules.


3. You can sell just as fast as an agent. If you list your home with a real estate agent, everyone knows you'll probably inflate the asking price to cover the commission fee amount. Three to six months down the road you'll come to the painful realization that no one is going to buy it at that price, and you'll end up reducing your price (or accepting an offer) equal to the original amount you would have asked if selling by owner. Do it right the first time, and avoid taking the loss. Pass the savings along to the buyer and sell quicker.


4. Less hassle and frustration. When selling by owner, you don't have to leave the house because an agent wants to show it, or clean every morning before leaving "just in case". You know when people are coming, and can prepare accordingly. And when a buyer makes an offer, there's not all the frustrating back-and-forth telephone tag between agents to reach an agreement. It can be done in less than 30 minutes, and end with a friendly handshake and smile between owner and buyer.
