Why selling FSBO is less effective than using a Realtor
As a Barrie home owner your choices for selling for sale by owner are the following:
1) PropertyGuys.com
2) BytheOwner.com
3) A black and red FOR SALE sign bought from the local hardware store
Although these methods sometimes get the job done they are in most cases less effective than using a Realtor. The only marketing tools a FSBO has is a lawn sign and a posting on a FSBO website that doesn't see enough traffic. The Realtor network is a strong and powerful resource. It reaches not only the Barrie area but across the country. The power of the Multiple Listings Service is unquestionable. The majority of buyers are either looking there for their next home or have hired a Barrie Real Estate Agent to help them find this home. Many of the FSBO's would like access to this service but aren't willing to hire a Realtor to represent them throughout the entire process. That is where SellFor995.ca comes in.
SellFor995.ca is a system designed to aid these Barrie home owners by getting them access to the Multiple Listing Service, where the majority of home buyers are looking. They can represent themselves throughout the sale process and save thousands of dollars doing so. As Realtors we feel that we can help these Barrie home owners achieve their Real Estate objectives and save them money at the same time.
