In this episode Ryan and Levi discuss why you should always use a professional and why value matters. They speak specifically about the FSBO (For Sale By Owner) in this episode and why most for sale by owners end up losing money instead of pocketing thousands when using a real estate agent.
Ever thought of doing an FSBO (For Sale By Owner) transaction? You might want to think again. There are a lot of complications when it comes to trying to sell a home on your own. Learn about the pitfalls on today's show, plus much more great information about buying and selling real estate in the greater Salem area.
Why should you work with a real estate professional instead of listing your home on your own? Today I’ll share a couple stories that demonstrate why. Pricing, condition, and marketing strategies have a lot to do with whether a home sells. However, FSBO (For Sale By Owner) sellers are the ones who think they can do it all on their own. Let me ask you this: Have you ever seen anyone do their own dentistry work? Have you ever seen a lawyer practice law without an actual degree? For instance, I once had a client who came up with the price on her home by taking the estimated values generated by Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.com and throwing a dart at one of them. I had to laugh when I heard that, but unfortunately, that’s how many sellers in the market try to do it on their own. Another story on the subject involves a lesser-known company called REX. One of my buyers called me about a listing they’d seen through REX, asking to set up an appointment to go see it. It wasn’t on the MLS, and I couldn’t find the owner’s phone number. Since the listing was on Zillow, I contacted the Zillow agent, who also couldn’t find it anywhere. On REX, the listing must be made through the seller’s own agent in order for them to save the 2%. “FSBO sellers think that they can do the same things that real estate experts spend years perfecting.” I understand the common-sense strategy of trying to save money when you list. However, you should be trying to work from a perspective of abundance: How can you make more money when you actually sell the home? Using a true professional to market your home and gather as many potential buyers as possible is the way to do it. If you have any questions about selling your home or about real estate in general, don’t hesitate to reach out to me. My job is to help buyers and sellers be successful in real estate.
Selling your own home sounds like a great way to save money. However, there are many pitfalls involved that you are probably unaware of.Looking for a San Diego home? Click here for a full home search Selling Your San Diego home? Get a free home price evaluationToday we are going to talk about selling your home on your own, commonly referred to as an FSBO (For Sale By Owner). It sounds like an enticing, easy, and inexpensive way of selling your home, but you are not seeing the whole picture. When it comes down to it, only 4% of FSBO homes listed result in successful sales. Meanwhile, 96% of FSBOs end up listing their home with an agent after their failed attempt.Our team is here to support any avenue that you are considering as your neighborhood resource for over 30 years. We are here to answer any questions you have about selling your home on your own.The reason most FSBO sellers end up hiring an agent is that they did not understand the work that went into the process before beginning it. Many also were unaware of the legal exposure that selling FSBO opens you up to. “96% of FSBO home sellers end up listing their home with an agent anyway.”Another factor playing a role in all this is that homebuyers almost always work with an agent because the service of a buyer’s agent is free. Why would a buyer who is ready, willing, and able to buy want to deal with a homeowner directly when a Realtor is available for them?If you have any more questions or if you are looking to buy or sell a home here in San Diego, please feel free to give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
My honest thoughts on disruptive business models like OpenDoor and real estate. Also - real estate commissions - are they too high? Stories about FSBO (For Sale By Owner) sales I've encountered, and why pricing strategy matters MORE to your bottom line than "saving" on commission. I am a licensed real estate broker who works on the Marti Hampton Team at RE/MAX One Realty in Raleigh, NC.
A lot of people out there think that when the time comes for them to buy a home, they can go out and do everything on their own. In reality, hiring an agent is the only way you’ll be able to go through the transaction step by step with limited hassle and worry. Working with an agent who is involved (like all the agents on our team) is a huge plus. We can help you write up a wishlist with everything that you want in a home. Then we can help you look at properties that match the items on that list. Not only do we have access to the entire local MLS, we often have our own inventory of off-market properties as well. In addition to off-market properties, we also have all the information you need about various neighborhoods and schools. We’ll be able to answer any of your questions faster than you can type them into Google. Buying a home on your own is one thing, but buying an FSBO (For Sale By Owner) home on your own has even more potentially disastrous consequences. There are pages and pages of disclosures that we use with FSBOs to protect our buyers. Without that knowledge, things could go south quickly. “Buying an FSBO on your own could be disastrous.” The best part about hiring an agent to help you buy a home is that it won’t cost you a thing. We don’t charge transaction fees and we don’t charge you for having us represent you. Why wouldn’t you want to hire someone who is ready, willing, and able to negotiate the best terms possible on your real estate purchase contract and will coordinate everything while they’re at it? Before you choose an agent to hire, however, make sure you ask them questions like, “How many homes have you sold in the last year?” and “How long have you been working in real estate?” If you have any questions about buying a home or you need our help at all with any real estate struggles, give us a call or send us an email. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
If you’re thinking about selling your home on your own, think again. The only way to get the most out of your home sale is by hiring a Realtor.Want to sell your home? Get a FREE home value reportWant to buy a home? Search all homes for saleAs you prepare to sell, you might be thinking you can save some money by not hiring a Realtor and listing your home by yourself. Studies have shown that the opposite is true. You get more money out of your home when using a Realtor for several reasons. The first is that a Realtor is an expert advisor. They are educated, trained, and know the market well. They know all the rules, regulations, and work that it takes to get your home sold. When it comes to selling, a well-trained seasoned expert can make a huge difference on whether you get top dollar for your home or not.I’ve seen FSBO (For Sale By Owner) sellers do a few things that you should avoid if you’re going that route, including how they handle their due diligence fees, earnest money deposits, and disclosures. I also see many of them fail to use high-quality professional photography when marketing their home.An expert Realtor will help you protect your largest investment.Your home is typically the biggest investment you will make in your life. You want to hire someone to sell it who is an expert and can get you the most amount of money with the least inconvenience.

We are always here to help, and we look forward to hearing from you.
Selling your home on your own isn’t the best idea. You might save the 6% in commission, but you’ll give up a whole lot more money elsewhere.Buying a home? Click Here to Perform a Full Home SearchSelling a home? Click here for a FREE Home Price EvaluationWhy should you hire a real estate agent as opposed to trying to sell your home on your own? There are three specific reasons that we would like to share. You may think it’s a good idea to sell your home FSBO (For Sale By Owner), but here are three reasons why it’s not:1. FSBO homes fail 75% to 95% of the time. Those that end up selling are sold for a fraction of their true value. The NAR stated last year that homeowners have lost an average of 17% on their sale prices because they are trying to save 6% on commission.2. Owners aren’t agents. In terms of preparing and marketing the property for sale, showing it, and negotiating the best deal possible, it’s a full-time job. Most homeowners don't have that kind of time to dedicate to a sale.Hiring an agent saves you time and money. 3. It saves you time and money.If you have any questions for me about selling your home or anything else related to the real estate market, I would love to hear from you.

There are 10 things you must know if you want to sell your home for top dollar and leave no pennies on the table.Selling a home? Get a free home value reportBuying a home? Search all homes for saleWhat are the 10 things you absolutely must know to sell your home without leaving a penny on the table?1. Neutralize your home. Strong statements of wallpaper and paint may appeal to a select group of people, but most will see it as additional work if they buy the home. Paint, wallpaper, and carpet are usually matched with furniture that will change, so stay with neutral colors so all buyers can see their furniture in the home.2. Depersonalize your home. The buyer must see the house as their new home. Too many personal family items, pictures, trophies, posters, etc. will hinder this process. A few personal items are fine, but if you find yourself looking in each room at your things and not at the room, it’s time to remove some items and get the room down to the bare essentials.3. Declutter your home. Take everything off the floor that does not have to be there. More floor space makes the home seem larger. The same goes for countertops. Clutter is worse than dirt. Too much stuff makes the house confusing, and the buyer’s mind gets cluttered. Start packing! You’re moving anyway.4. Attack odors. People buy homes with all their senses. You may not be able to smell your pet, but believe me, others can. Strong food odors are also a turnoff. I used to buy frozen cookie dough and cut it into small pieces and put a piece or two on a cookie sheet in the oven at about 200 degrees for 30 minutes prior to a showing.5. Have a garage sale. I’ve shown hundreds of properties, and what people are most surprised by is a nice, clean, orderly garage. It speaks to the care that you take toward the rest of the house, and with a bit of effort, you can purge through things you no longer use or need and you will make room to pack your boxes.6. Horizontal surfaces. The eye naturally scans a room from left to right. By clearing off tables, minimizing shelves, and taking things off of your kitchen and bathroom counters, you are not only able to start packing, but you will be making your home more visibly pleasing for the purchaser.“If a buyer is at your front door, you should always open it. ”7. Mentally prepare yourself. Having your home on the market is never convenient. Buyers are on the hunt, and in addition to having your home ready, you must be mentally prepared to adjust your schedule in catering to these buyers.8. Be flexible. If a buyer is at your front door, you should always open it. If they are in the yard, then they are excited and ready to see it. Leaving work at a moment’s notice may be necessary to land the buyer, so be ready. Otherwise, something better may just be around the corner for those buyers.9. Don’t show your cards. As an agent, my job is to keep the buyer and seller apart. I ask my clients not to be home when their house is being shown. This is not possible as a FSBO (For Sale By Owner), so make sure not to let on where you are going because it could affect your bottom line.10. Ask an expert such as myself. I have helped hundreds of home sellers obtain top dollar. Some paid me a commission, others did not. I am happy to be your resource. Everybody needs a good Realtor—even FSBOs.If you are selling your home or looking to buy a new one and would like to schedule a strategy session, please don’t hesitate to give me a call.

The market is starting to heat up, and they are deciding how they should go about selling their home. One thing I've been getting asked about a lot is FSBO (For Sale By Owner) homes, and how viable the option really is. Before you decide to undertake the task of selling your home, I want to provide you with some helpful information for your decision. Just like anything else, there are advantages and disadvantages, so let's take a look at them now. Today we are going to examine the disadvantages.Although there are some advantages to selling your own home, I believe the disadvantages far outweigh them. For starters, selling a home takes a tremendous amount of time. There is a reason we do this for a living. Having a full-time job on top of a full-time job is very stressful. Another disadvantage is the huge number of out-of-pocket expenses that selling your own home creates. Marketing and advertising are an important part of selling a home, and if you don't spend the money to succeed in this area like we do, you won't see results. Finally, not having extensive knowledge of the market is very detrimental to your home sale. You can be easily taken advantage of, or be misinformed about how much you can get for your home. A lot of buyers view FSBO homes as inferior to homes listed with an agent. As you can see, when it comes to selling your home, doing it all alone just does not work. You need to hire an agent who knows the local market, and who can assist you in every part of the transaction. If you have any questions for us, or would like to discuss how we can help you achieve your real estate goals, give us a call or send us an email.

One thing I've been getting asked about a lot is FSBO (For Sale By Owner) homes, and how viable the option really is. Before you decide to undertake the task of selling your home, I want to provide you with some helpful information for your decision. Just like anything, there are advantages and disadvantages, so let's take a look at them now. We'll start with the advantages.When you sell your home by yourself, you get away with not paying a commission to an agent, which saves you money (as much as 10%). However, only 2% of people actually sell their FSBO home, and most end up hiring agents by the time their home actually sells.Another advantage is being able to have complete control over the transaction from start to finish. You're able to make your own decisions and sell on your own terms, not anybody else's. There are many advantages when it comes to selling your own home.
