Five Reasons Why You SHOULD NOT For Sale by Owner (without our help)

 1. It's too Easy to Go Under Contract w/ a Dead-End Buyer

  • Often times buyers are not as pre-qualified as they, or their lenders represent themselves to be. MyOpenHouse.com works with preferred lenders that offer only the highest level of pre-qualifications possible minimizing the chances that you buyers loan will fall-out, especially in this new climate of mortgage regulation. 
  • Deals fall apart mostly during the inspection and appraisal process. Our consultants help you hold your deal together through any complications that may arise during these two critical processes. 

2. Converting Home-Buyer calls Into a Sale is Truly an Art.

  • Recent studies have shown that if your don't return a home-buyers call in less than 10 minutes the chances you'' ever reach them drops by 1700%. MyOpenHouse.com uses a proprietary lead conversion system we call the Virtual Realty System which helps our phone team (known as CSR's) to make contact with your leads in minutes not hours or days like most agents. 
  • Our CSR's are trained to get your buyers prequalified to avoid having un-qualified buyers looking at your home weekly causing you to waste unnecessary time.
  • You may be showing your home to buyers that think they aren't necessarily qualified for a home. They see your home, say they love it, then you never hear from them again. Our of our aggressive in-House Mortgage team, your buyer may discover they do in fact qualify for a mortgage after all.

3.  Results Come from the Internet

  • The days of selling your house by just putting up a sign and putting it in the paper are long gone. Having a strong internet strategy is crucial.
  • Realtors have effectively locked out FOR SALE BY OWNERS from what is arguable worlds most popular Real Estate Website, REALTOR.com
  • By Listing with MyOpenHouse.com you will be displayed on REALTOR.com in less than (24) hours helping you reach national home-buyers helping you get top dollar for your home. 

4. FSBO’ing has Become More and More Difficult

  • The paperwork involved in selling and buying a home has increased dramatically as industry disclosures and regulations have become mandatory.
  • This is one of the reasons that the percentage of people FSBOing has dropped from 19% to 8% over the last 20+ years. With help from a MyOpenHouse.com consultant, you no longer have to be intimidated by the ever changing contracts and addendums. 

5. You Net More Money when Using a MyOpenHouse.com FSBO Specialist

  • Many homeowners believe that they will save the real estate commission by selling on their own. Realize that the main reason buyers look at FSBOs is because they also believe they can save the real estate agent’s commission. The seller and buyer can’t both save the commission.
  • Studies have shown that the typical house sold by the homeowner sells for $210,000 while the typical house sold by an agent sells for $249,000. Our Consultants help you target the highest and best price for your home based our current market data surrounding your home.
