It hurts to discover you sold your property and paid a much higher commission than you would have had you sold it FSBO. It hurts too when you have your duplex for sale for nine months but not been able to sell it. You might have been better off had you spent some time doing your homework. With FSBO whether you are putting your
used mobile home for sale, duplex for sale, or using a flat fee MLS deal; it is always intelligent to have a fair idea of your propertys price beforehand. Keep in mind that the buyers who are interested in homes for sale by owner are usually doing so because they think they will get a better deal by avoiding a real estate agent, who typically charges a 6% commission.
To assure you are getting a competitive price for your house for sale you can start with checking out prices of
FSBO homes in your vicinity which have more or the less same square footage, features, landscape, internal and external conditions as compared to yours. This comparative price of other homes for sale by owner will give you a fair idea about your property's market value. You can also get a list of pricings of FSBO Homes sold in last 2 to 4 months in your area and assess current market rates. Another good idea is to get an appraisal done for your property by a certified appraiser. This is a low-cost method that owners of
houses for sale by owner use to assess the true value of their home. As an owner, you also receive a certified appraisal to show to your prospective buyers. You can have a complete appraisal of your property done by a licensed appraiser agency for as low as a few hundred dollars on up. This is the same procedure a lender will use when determining the amount of money to lend your potential buyers. These techniques really help if you want to sell your property as FSBO and sell it fast.
Following these steps you will be able to get a competitive market price for your property. To learn more, you can always visit our site http://www.virtualfsbo.com for a detailed listings of FSBO homes in the US and Canada including our
