This is one article in a series of over 30 articles that will help you when selling your home privately in Ontario. When using these simple FSBO (For Sale by Owner) techniques that I have outlined below, these tips will help you sell your home without the assistance of a real estate agent. Just as many other people have successfully sold their home on their own in the past, you can too. It will possibly save you thousands, but it takes a great deal of work and firm commitment on your part to succeed in selling your home privately in Ontario. You may ask why I would provide such a series of indepth articles. The reason is simple. I want you to have all the information to make the best decision for yourself. You may sell privately, but need an agent to help you buy your next home, I hope you remember how helpful I was in helping you sell and use my services for your purchase. I wish you all the best of success. Here are some ways to market your home when selling on your own: |
NEWSPAPER INFORMATION SHEETS/PHOTO FLYERS OPEN HOUSES INTERNET HomesByOwner and Property By Owner are convinced that this is the site where your home should be advertised. It’s easy to navigate, displays the home exceptionally well and provides a lot of assistance to buyers regarding financing, payment calculation, attorneys, area information and a myriad of other helpful services for both the buyer and seller. Internet ads should be the same as your other ads, complete with photograph and a full description. It’s interesting that different parts of the country view Open Houses differently. In some major Midwest cities, for example, Open Houses are expected if you’re going to sell but in similar size cities in the South, having an Open House is the exception rather than the rule. First and foremost, have a professional, easy-to-read yard sign. The sign should clearly say that the home is for sale by owner and should have the owners phone number in large bold print. A potential buyer should have a good impression of your home. Chipped exterior paint, loose gutters, overgrown shrubs and lawn, marred interior walls, cluttered closets and counters, and stained or dirty carpets are simply unacceptable to home buyers. These are all examples of problems that are easily resolved with very little expense. |
