Cheap Ways to Sell Your House and Marketing Tools for FSBO
How Do I Get Started?
This website is designed to assist those who wish to learn how to buy or sell a house without a realtor. Anyone can do it and the savings are immense when you use creative ways to sell your house.
SET
A PRICE
One must first decide on the value of the home.
What price should I sell it for?
- (the seller asks)
What price is a fair price to pay?
- (the buyer asks)
There is no magic to deciding upon
the proper price. Look through the real estate listings on your
computer for your area. Look through the realtors' magazines that
are distributed at the local supermarkets. There you will find as
good an indication of the value of your house as anyone can provide
for you.
After deciding on a price, put up
a sign. Enlist the help of the websites which are available to you
such as
www.forsalebyowner.com, a highly recommended website for both
buyers and sellers.
A
CLEAN HOUSE SELLS
When selling a house - clean it up. New paint, new
wax, make it sparkle. A buyer doesn't want to spend the extra money
after settlement to make improvements and the house will sell quicker
and for more money if it is clean, bright and fresh.

A
TITLE COMPANY
Every sale needs a title company. The bank or mortgage
company won't give you a mortgage without having title insurance.
The buyer chooses the title company and must pay for the title insurance. The title company provides a place to hold the settlement. They
apportion the taxes to the date of settlement. The title company
insures that the title to your real estate is free from any claims
effecting your ownership. It protects you from judgments, mechanics
liens, boundary line disputes, unpaid taxes and other concealed
problems like forgery or other frauds.

provide extensive exposure for sellers
and buyers.
