For Sale By Owner Review

Thanks for your assistance. I am happy to advise selling price because that will become public knowledge in due course anyway. When I first put the property on forsalebyowner, I listed it at $415,000. Our expectations were to achieve a price above $400,000. After a few weeks, I decided to change the advertised price to “Negotiable over $399,000”. I have sold for $405,000, so as you can imagine, we are quite happy with the outcome.

It did take a little longer than I hoped (possibly due to the Christmas holidays) but it has been a happy experience and not nearly as daunting as one might think. I also enjoyed having the “open homes” and meeting people. I found that everyone who looked at the property was interested in the concept of selling your own home.
