At the end of the day i don't think its about the money.
i don't think the fsbo is really that .
its about self reliance. that feeling of Independence that I can do this, I don't need an agent.
its not rocket science. there are only 5 steps i selling real estate
pricing
marketing
showings.
negotiating
in the past marketing was expensive you needed newspapers magazine, billboards.
but now with the Internet, costs have essentially gone to zero.
you can now have a Microsoft virtual tour for free.
Google base, Trula, Zillow. its all on line and the consumer knows that, they are not stupid.
but there is one last piece.
the MLS
or Multiple listing service.
the Department of Justice recently passed a hearing to free up the MLS for sites such as Trula and Zillow. but the Realtors still control who gets in.
without an agent you can't advertise on MLS and therefore you cannot be there. untill now.
