Are You a FSBO Seller? (For Sale By Owner)
Not having to pay some or all of the commission is a huge incentive driving most of us to want to sell on our own. (After all, on a $300,000 property at 6 percent commission, that’s a potential savings of $18,000 – no small hunk of change.)
However, there’s the other side of the coin? What’s involved in selling “by owner?” And are you capable of doing it?
Selling “by owner” you’ll need to market/advertise your property, show it to prospective buyers, deal with the paperwork, and handle the closing. For some it’s a daunting task. For others, it’s a challenge they are eager to answer. Where do you fit in?
While there’s no test to see if you’re a good FSBO (For Sale By Owner) candidate, there are a number of indicators that you can look at. Here are 4 you should consider before undertaking to sell your home on your own:
** Are you naturally gregarious?
** Do you like paperwork?
** Do you have the time?
** Are you fearful?
I have a Sellers Book that will show you what to expect when trying the FSBO. Let me know, I will be more than happy to send one your way!
