Who creates the best FSBO websites?

Answer 1

I had a guy in Madison Wisconsin build my site. David Zwiefelhofer 608-238-3801 is his name and number. He has build many sites after he received NY Times exposure a few months ago. My FSBObend.com site is doing great in its first 3 years. If your town doesn't have one start it now, before someone else does. Let me know if you need any advice.

not sure what you mean by the question, but if you are looking for services that offer fsbo services on line, just do a search.

in the end the web service you use will not sell the property, it may bring interested parties to you, it will be the property, the location, its condition and the price that will sell it.

As a long time agent, I know I am biased, but I have to say that in most cases, if you are attempting to save the commission, if the property sells without an agent it often only happens after the buyer ends up discounting the asking price by the commission and then starting to negotiate.

In addition, those that will go thru the extra effort of buying without an agent are those that are also more prepared and aware of the ways by which they can find an advantage for themselves, why would they otherwise bother, and not seek the assistance from a professional and be protected and shielded from liability.

What you should likely do is talk to people who have sold FSBO, and ask them exactly what all happened and if they would do it again, knowing what they know today, you will find that firstly, many of them where in fact sold with the help of an agent somewhere along the way, and secondly, even fewer will ever try to do this again.

If you have a time time by which you need to be moved, it also then becomes a race against the clock and all the other homes in the market.

in any market it will take a certain amount of time sell a house by the industry, in many areas this is something you can find out from the websites of the local real estate boards.

This will reflects the number of days it takes to go from sign up to having an unconditional sale, with reasoanble exposure to the market on the mls system, and the benefit of all the local agents working the market and their respective buyers.

it will take you at least as much time to find and sell to a qualified buyer as the average of your local market place, it is more likely that it will take as much as twice as long, this is just because, it will be harder to reach the right buyers, as most of them will be working with agents (in their mind) for free.

Good Luck

Not something you really want to do.

You want your place to be on all the big traffic websites, like realtor.com and craigslist. Doesn't matter how nice your website is; if nobody comes to visit the website nobody is going to be drawn to your property.

PS. Many Realtors have lower cost limited service listing options. If I don't have to spend a large amount of time and money actively marketing your place (because you're taking care of that yourself), I can charge a lot less. I can even put one of *my* signs in your yard as part of it so that you don't have to deal with all the agents soliciting business from FSBOs.

It's still smarter to go full service in the buyer's market we have now. But there are options in between complete FSBO and full service.
