Even if a simple sign in your yard did produce a buyer knocking on your door, how will you handle the following questions:
"How does your home or property compare to others like it in the Washington DC Metro Area - from Northern Virginia to Baltimore, MD - including Columbia Heights, 16th Street Heights, Silver Spring, Takoma Park, and Baltimore, MD?"
"How did you determine the fair market value of this home or property?"
"What about financing? Can you help?"
"If I make an offer, who will draw up the paperwork?"
"Why aren't you using a real estate agent? Is there something wrong with the home or property?"
"Since you aren't using a real estate agent, we can take their fee right off the top, right?"
Selling your home or property is one of the most important financial transactions you will make in your life. Don't take risks. Selling your home or property is nothing like selling a car. Every home is different, and every homebuyer wants to offer you as little as possible. How do you determine the true real market value?
Almost all homes or properties are sold using a real estate agent. As top real estate professionals, it is our job to help you negotiate with all those buyers who want something for nothing. Not to mention preparing your home for sale, marketing it locally, in the Washington DC Metro Area - from Northern Virginia to Baltimore, MD - including Columbia Heights, 16th Street Heights, Silver Spring, Takoma Park, and Baltimore, MD area and even nationally and globally; and guiding you through the complex paperwork and pitfalls of escrow and closing. Make sure you are really ready to handle all of that before pounding that sign into your front yard. Errors can be extremely costly.
Remember: Buyers want to offer you as close to nothing as possible! While that "For Sale By Owner" sign might sound like a good idea, it usually means a different thing to buyers: "Try to steal this one."
