So what do you think will happen when you put your home up for sale by owner?
You will get a ton of phone calls!
That’s right, a ton of phone calls from Ann Arbor area real estate agents. And here are some of
most common things that they’ll say-
Are you working with co-operating brokers? This means will you pay 3% or more if I bring a buyer to you. Watch out for this one. In many cases agent has an interested client and they want to be sure that they’ll get paid if sell you home to them. But, other agents (who are out for more listings) will see that you are half way to paying 6% since you’ll pay 3% and try to convince you to list. What are your plans if you don’t sell in next 30 days? This is their way of finding out if you are in it for long haul or if you are just giving FSBO thing a try. I’d like to become familiar with all of homes on market, not just MLS. Be careful here, in some cases this is a way for a listing agent to get a foot in door. On other hand, when they end up with a client who’s not interested in any of homes on MLS, they might remember yours. Others include-How did your open house go? Why do you think your home hasn’t sold? I have a client who might be interested; can I come by and take a look at your home first before I bring my client over? Would you like a free CMA?
And after a while you’ll hear all of lines and scripts . So what is solution to all of this?
It’s in my secrets.
How do you think all of real estate agent in Ann Arbor area would react if they knew that there is a way for you to do all of things listed below?
Not pay 6-7% in real estate commissions and have your home advertised on MLS (the real one) and Realtor.com. Eliminate annoying Realtor calls and only take calls from Realtors who are serious, have qualified buyers and are calling to schedule showings? Always know when an interested buyer inquires about your home without a flyer box that always needs refilling. Have a “for sale” sign in your yard that is proven to attract eye of every individual with a driver’s license. Also be provided with directional signs that do same. Have a real estate professional on hand that you can safely contact (not try to sell you on idea of listing) when you need assistance. Have you home advertised on two very high traffic websites for free. Hold your own open houses. After all, who knows your home better, you or some real estate agent? You decide how much you are willing to pay a buyer’s agent. Let thousands of agents and home buyers know that your home if for sale, in one day, without a newspaper ad. And, instead of paying 3% of your equity to a listing agent, you can have all of this for less than $1,000!
Is there more?
Yes there is!
