So, you’re thinking about selling your home, but you don’t want to pay a Realtor fee to a listing agent.  These fees usually range from about 2-5% of the selling price of the home.  This fee is always negotiable (in other words, there is no set fee amount).  But, even if you manage to pay as little as 2%, this amount is a considerable expense when you have to add it in to all of the other costs associated with selling a home.

In selling any product or service, advertising almost always guarantees quick sales and instant recall among potential customers. This is an effective marketing tool tested and proven for thousands of years now. This is also true in the field of real estate.

When selling your home through FSBO, it really pays to advertise. Advertising is an essential part of the home selling process thus, it should never be ignored. Homeowners should utilize as many advertising tools as much as possible to be able to reach a wider audience. Place advertisements in the newspapers, newsletters, local radio and television stations as well as on the internet through the web listing sites. Another option is to distribute flyers in public places within your neighborhood and schedule open houses. No need to spend so much because a small budget will go a long way in making the people aware of your home for sale.

Most of my home buyers have come to me via the internet in the last 3 years. Some studies suggest that over 80% of all home buyers start their search on the internet before deciding to look at homes. Many begin their search weeks or months before actually deciding to look at homes and before calling a real estate agent.

Traditional means of finding a buyer would be a sign in the yard, neighborhood flyers, putting an advertisement on the super market bulletin board, an ad in the newspaper and some open houses.
