What research says Note: Homepoint no longer offers FSBO services as of 08/2008. We recommend For Sale By Owner.
ForSaleByOwner.com and Owners.com are two of the largest online FSBO web sites, so it's good to have an ad on these sites. However, both of them could do better when it comes to yard signs - especially Owners.com, as the cardboard signs they offer look very amateur. All three sites have a lot of resources & upgrades worth considering, including flat-fee MLS listings, brochures, virtual tours, and more. HomePoint.com has some cutting-edge plans that pair an hour of with their FSBO plans, and there's a nice Steps to Selling Your House guide there. ForSaleByOwner.com also includes an eBook in their plan: "The Complete Guide To Buying and Selling Your Own Home", which sounds more focused of FSBO selling than HomePoint.com's guide, which discusses FSBO as one of several methods of selling a home. Owners.com has a nice section of Real Estate Forms & Contracts. Overall we found Homepoint.com to offer the most value for the price (Note: No longer offering services), and ForeSalebyOwner.com to be the most established and trusted among current online user reviews of FSBO websites. If you are trying to sell your own home you want to save as much money as possible while still giving yourself the best chance to get top dollar out of your house. Going the For-Sale-By-Owner route can be challenging, but it can also be very rewarding if done the right way. We hope the resource below will help. Good luck!
Real Estate Agent said:Hi, I'm a real estate agent in Colorado who would like to stay anonymous for obvious reasons. But I'm writing just to say that the for sale by owner (FSBO) options offered by some of these websites are VERY exstensive. Nothing beats a real estate agent - in my opinion - if you are trying to sell your home in a tough market. But if it is a seller's market out there you could easily save over ten thousand dollars by selling your house without a real estate agent. But I didn't tell you that! jim said:there are a lot more sites than 3. do a new review. What about homeworksre.com, ulistit.com, mls4owners.com, owners.com, fsbosupport.com. what's wrong with them, I'm curious? ForSaleByOwner.com said:Just a quick note, that ForSaleByOwner.com also syndicates listings to the real estate sections of Yahoo, Google Base, USA Today, Facebook, and many others. We also have a new tool allowing people to easily post their ForSaleByOwner.com listing onto Craigslist! Other Resources and Reviews |
