FSBO : For Sale By Owner

For Sale By Owner ( FSBO ) is the process of selling your home without a real estate agent. Approximately 25% of all real estate transactions in Canada are completed without real estate agents. Selling your home privately has become a growing trend in Canada due to owners wanting to take more control of their house sale while saving thousands by not paying high real estate commissions.

When you sell your home privately you are in control of your home sale. You can decide when to show your home and to whom you show your home. Sale of the home for FSBO properties are generally completed bewteen 15 and 80 days. Private sellers advertise their home, schedule their own open houses, and talk directly with the buyers. Most owners who sell privately contact a lawyer and have the lawyer write and review the contract before finalizing the sale. Owners who sell privately do not have to pay 5-7% of their homes value to a real estate agent. Owners decide on the home sale price and they decide when to have open houses. You can save 4-7% from a commission free home sale.

For Example, if two neighbours have similar properties and one sells with an agent for $300,000 and the other sells with ByTheOwner.com for $300,000, then the home sold on ByTheOwner.com would result in the owner saving more than $15,000 from their home sale!!! A recent study by Northwestern University proved that people who sell their home without an agent save more than people who sell their home with a real estate agent.

So far, ByTheOwner.com customers have saved more than $417,126,018 in commissions.
