Here Are The FSBO Facts

According to the 2010 National Association of REALTORS®

survey of home sellers and home buyers...

• 83% of all buyers used a real estate professional. Most people who qualify to buy a home are working 40 or more hours a week. They don't have time to search out For Sale By Owner homes and if they do they're looking for a bargin!!
• Home owners who do not use a real estate professional sold their home for an average of 20% less than homes represented by the seller. So even with a sales commission of (6 %), you are likely to make more money using a Realtor.  The facts show people who don’t use a real estate agent despite all their effort, usually sell their homes for far less.”
  
• Only 9% of "For Sale By Owners" actually sell there property successfully, without the help of a real estate professional. In 50% of these cases the homeowner knew the buyer prior to their home purchase.

 Other Issues To Consider  
 

• Your time is limited. Evenings and weekends are when most buyers are looking and many times your only time to relax. Besides the responsibility of placing ads, answering phone calls and showing your home at odd hours, you'll get unannounced buyers showing up. This may be too much to deal with after a hard days work, at dinner time, etc.
• Many buyers are not financially qualified and can tie up your sale. If you get tied up with someone who has financing difficulty, you lose opportunity, valuable time and market momentum with other qualified prospects.
• You'll get many curious and just plain nosey people. These lookers will not have been financially screened, or even screened by their "must have" list of features. This can drain your time.
• You may not be emotionally detached enough to market your home. The price may not be competitive. You may not be able to give a third-party perspective that a potential buyer needs.
• As a For Sale By Owner you can make limited connections to people in your local market.
