So where should you advertise and list your home? There are plenty of websites which offer to list your property. Two well-known and frequently visited sites are ChoiceOfHomes.com and ForSaleByOwner.com. I suggest not listing on only one but listing on at least a couple of these sites, if not more. It doesn’t cost much and especially when you considerrepparttar 111815 money you’d save in commissions from finding a buyer through these sources.

Happy Home Selling!
