For
Sale By Owner? You
certainly don't need to hire a Realtor to sell your home. If you'd
like to do it yourself, we can highly recommend George Devine's Nolo
Press Book "For Sale By Owner"
Sellers go "by owner" for several reasons:
They
Want To Save The Commission
First... you'll be earning the commission yourself, not really saving it.
To save the most on commission, look for a buyer who doesn't have an agent
to represent them. Those buyers consider your home because they figure they
can get it for a lower price. They offer less because they know you can sell
it for less. You're both looking to save the commission!
They
Want To Do It Themselves
Nothing wrong with that! And if everything goes smoothly, you'll probably do
fine. It's similar to flying cross country. When the weather's good, even a
novice can handle the flight. When the weather gets bad, you want an experience
pilot at the controls. We solve problems on every transaction we're involved
in!

We
had bought a sign For Sale By Owner, and wanted to
sell our house by ourselves...
Thank
you very much for the excellent service you provided us
for the completing of the selling process of our house,
located at 1620 Richmond Street, El Cerrito, CA 94530.
Before meeting you, we had bought a sign For Sale By Owner, and wanted
to sell our house by ourselves. After attending your seminar at Nolo Bookstore,
Berkeley, we were convinced that an established marketing agent like your
team would be the way to go.
Your philosophy of revealing full documentation not only in presentation
binder but also on the internet is definitely a win-win approach for buyer
and seller alike. Your timely guidance and professional advice, from the
expert opinion of an author on real estate, is highly appreciated.
We recommend your service to anyone who can use the help of honest and
experienced professional in real estate.
Sincerely
Samuel and Mary
Gayle

clearly and calmly what you needed us to do next and providing
us with ample information and our options succinctly outlines
so we could make our decisions easily and quickly. Your
general attitude and seasoned negotiating skills reduced
our stress factor by 90%. And last but certainly not least
you sold the house in an amazingly short period of time
and for better than asking price. We are most grateful!. (more...)
