Wonderful people who provide oustanding Customer Service! Property was prepared well and sold in 6 days, no agent fees, no fuss. All the stress came from issues outside of actually selling the property.

Could not recommend the service highly enough.

Thanks for sale by owner! After our house being on the market for 6 months with an agent, we dropped the price by $10000 (agent’s fee) and listed it FSBO – we had an offer within 1.5 weeks of going for FSBO.

The process was easy – I would recommend it to anyone wanting to sell.

We are so satisfied with the level of support and marketing options made available to us through FSBO.

Paul and the crew guided us through the process of marketing our home, and we sold within five weeks of going live online. We saved around $14,000 which we were able to put towards the cost of our new home.

Thanks FSBO, we are telling all our friends about your wonderful service.

To Colin and the team at for For Sale By Owner, thanks for your professionalism and advise on selling my apartment. You were always very prompt in repling to my questions. By using your service I saved quite a lot of money on real estate fees and got the best price possible.

The eventual buyer sourced my unit through realestate.com/Forsalebyowner.com.au. I think the important thing in selling your own property is knowing the value of it, after that its quite easy.

This has been my second time selling my property without an agent. Thanks again Forsalebyowner.com.au

I had my house listed with a local Real Estate Agent for about 2 months without receiving a single offer, not even a low one, while, during the private sale, using ‘Foresalebyowner’, I had 8 parties through the home during the first ‘Open House’ and a signed contract the next day.

through the home during the first ‘Open House’ and a signed contract the next day. I know this sounds almost too good to be true; however, I can only recommend selling privately, as it is, in many ways, a lot more rewarding and painless than going through a Real Estate Agent.

Thank you again and Kind Regards.

Thank you so much for your services! Colin or yourself were always there to assist with any questions I had. I found selling the house myself to be a very satisfying experience. The feedback from potential buyers during home opens assured me that I had marketed the house at the proper price. I only had to wait 15 days for the right buyer to come along.

I had a question come up when I was writing up the offer & acceptance contract and simply phoned my settlement agent. They are happy to help with technical part of filling out the contract as it is their line of work.

It was very satisfying to sell the house myself and I would not do it any other way now. I have made new friends and very happy to pass on my home to a lovely young family. Plus I saved $18,000 in the process! Thanks so much, Jan.

The buyers were the first people to inspect the house, and we have since had a couple more who were really disappointed to miss out. We sold for the asking price of $498,000 which was $3,000 above the highest estimate given to us by real estate agents.

We were both comfortable dealing with prospective purchasers and the whole process was painless, even enjoyable. It was a real advantage to be able to talk to interested people directly and quickly, and to arrange convenient viewing times on the spot. Thanks for your help.

Thank you for your assistance and providing the service I was looking for. Selling my property using for sale by owner allowed me to use a platform such as real estate.com.au available only to agents.

The system was very easy and user friendly to use. The support and assistance throughout the setup process was very appreciated and the on time notification system made it easy to respond to enquiries straight away and arrange inspections when it suited us.

The sale went very smoothly and would not have any issues in recommending your service to any home owners wanting to sell the property themselves.

Judi Rogers - Dudley Park, WA

I was extremely nervous as I have been retired to 8 years, however your process’ and approach soon removed all those nerves. The service and support given was excellent to the point that whatever I requested was delivered (including two standard For Sale signs).

The public’s view of the company was positive and thought it quite quirky, what with the cute coloured lettering. Between your support, my positive attitude and perseverance we made it and achieved just smidgen below my bottom line. Hopefully this will raise awareness of the service, as in Western Australian we take time to warm to new ideas!

I was terrified about trying to sell my house over the internet but like many others I could not afford to lose the amount of money that a Real Estate agent would take. Lucky for me I came across FOR SALE BY OWNER.

An enormous THANK YOU, especially to Paul who I had most contact with, for the guidance and helpfulness to get my add up and running and this continued throughout the whole procedure. Our Sign board arrived promptly along with other paperwork that was needed.

I am very pleased to say we SOLD our property in about 10 days. We had a large number of enquiries of interest. My experience was so good I recommended it to 2 family members who also joined. Thanks again Paul and FOR SALE BY OWNER for your support

For Sale By Owner is a fabulous website to sell your own property without having a fuss to find a right agent and saving you heaps of cost. It only took me a month to sell off my property at a good price. I would rate it 9 out of 10 for its service.

For Sale By Owner Reviews: Kate Whitton
Kate Whitton - Meridan Plains, QLD

We would highly recommend for sale by owner to family and friends, in fact my mother in law has listed with you after chatting to us about our experience. We found the service exceptional. We had a signed contract on our house within two weeks, it all just seemed a bit too easy (and too good to be true)!

The settlement went through last week without a hitch. Agents told us that buyers would try and beat our price down for the commission, but not one buyer even mentioned it. It was great dealing directly with the buyers, getting honest feedback and knowing exactly where things stood. The set up costs were not more than listing with an agent, but we didn’t have to pay the commission at the end.

From my experience I would suggest three very important factors in selling; 1. ensure you are listed on the real estate sights (for sale by owner can do this), 2. know your local market (for sale by owner provide market reports as part of the package, which are invaluable), 3. present your property immaculately and provide good quality photos. With that in mind I would use for sale by owner again, what a fantastic service!! Thanks again.

I discovered For Sale By owner and was impressed with how simple it was to register and set up. It made complete sense to sell on our own. Why did we need a middle man? Why did we need to spend thousands on advertising when for sale by owner accomplished the same advertising for a fraction of the cost of agents.

We were free to schedule opens around our time, and found prospective buyers liked the idea of meeting the owners. Our philosophy was, welcome, view freely,and ask any questions. The end result was a sale within 4 weeks by purchasers who told us they respected the fact we did not hassle them and gave them time to consider and come back to us.

The final sale price was $30k above our minimum reserve. Would we do it again with FSBO? Absolutely. The support and efficiency of the team at FSBO was exceptional. Thank you For Sale By Owner for your professional service and for helping us save over $ 21,000 in fees.

As retired real estate agents my wife and I were happy to sell our own property but we no longer had the necessary “TOOLS”. For Sale By Owner provided all that was needed. The listing on Realestate.com.au was essential in our opinion, the brochure format was excellent, the signs were colourful and commanded attention. The whole procedure went seamlessly, the operation was most professional, the service was excellent with great communication and the result was great.

We sold to the first buyer who enquired off the Realestate.com.au website and we had a back up buyer who saw the street sign. Well done Paul & Col of For Sale By Owner a great option for sellers.

Thank you to Paul and the team at forsalebyowner. The whole experience of dealing with your company was exceptional. My many questions regarding the listing of my property were answered promptly and gave me the confidence that I was dealing with a very professional organisation.

I would highly recommend forsalebyowner to anyone thinking of selling their own property.

Our experience with forsalebyowner.com.au has been wonderful. I have been amazed by how available and responsive the staff are. They are always available (almost 24/7) and this is important when you are in WA and 3 hours behind. They are also endlessly helpful.

Our house sold within 24 hours of it being listed at a price well above what we had been told it was worth by a real estate agent. We were so happy not to have to pay a commission to an agent. The queries from potential buyers come to you via text and email and were very easy to respond to. The cost is very reasonable in my view and our listing looked very professional.

I would thoroughly recommend the site to anyone who is considering going it alone, it’s easy, quick and you feel well supported.

We used For Sale By Owner after contacting several real estate agents who were reluctant to attend our address due to our rural location. The process with FSBO was user friendly and we completed all the details of our advertisement including photographs without any hassles.

The FSBO team were there at any time day or night if we had questions however we didn’t need assistance as the process was so user friendly. We managed to sell our property quickly and saved thousands of dollars in commission and advertising fees which left our neighbours asking how we did it.

We cannot recommend FSBO enough!! Thank you.

The professional team at ‘For Sale By Owner’ made selling my unit an absolute breeze. Nothing was too much trouble and most importantly for me, they were always available to answer any questions or to solve any issues that arose. The website is easy to use and allowed me to make any changes I needed to, including adding more photos or changing the words in the description of the add as needed.

I have used other ‘no agent’ companies in the past and there is absolutely no comparison to Colin, Paul and their team. I will be using ‘For Sale By Owner’ the next time around as well and I highly recommend them for your Real Estate needs.

We would recommend the sale by owner site to anyone who wants, a method of presenting and selling their home, without pressure and hassles with agents, we found the help from your company very professional, and helpful, all our inquiries and queries were followed up without delay.

The saving of agents exorbitant fees was a major factor in choosing your company, and we will not hesitate to contact you if we are in a position to sell again. Thank you from us both.
