Don't let realtors scare you - you can do it FSBO, just like we did!
Using Fizber.com was 100% the best decision we made when selling our house. Off the bat, as soon as our property was listed, we had several realtors call and tell us what a huge mistake we were making (they're protecting their livelihood after all). But we stayed strong, and had a solid offer within only a few weeks of listing. Some Tips: - Definitely pay to have your listing in MLS! - Do your research and find the disclosures, etc. you need to provide for your area once in Escrow. - Offer a buyer's realtor commission or you may not get as many offers. - Be super nice to the realtors that call to dissuade you, and keep reminding them they'll get commission if they bring the buyer! - Once you're up on MLS, make friends with realtors that have listings in your area - they may be able to help you out with guidance on which disclosures to include once in Escrow. - DEFINITELY get a good photographer in there to get some professional pictures - nice pictures make all the difference! (We found our photographer on Yelp and he was awesome.) We chose to pay a buyer's commission to motivate realtors to work with us, but retained what we would have paid a realtor to sell it for us! There's a little extra heavy lifting, but saving 3% (almost $30,000 in our case!) was TOTALLY worth a little extra work on our part. THANK YOU FIZBER - we couldn't have done it without you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
