Good video. Great information. Your approach, your presentation the best I have seen so far. Professional approach compared to a lot of the the others. On the West Coast, but thanks for a great video.
Thanks Dale!! Appreciate the kind words. Means a lot to us. Even though you're on the West Coast we've got an International network of agents that can help you no matter where you are. Just let us know. Also, any other topics you'd like for us to cover?
Real estate commissions in my area are 8-8.5%. 😬... And I've seen their listings: incorrect or missing information, pictures taken with a cell phone, etc. We are in a rural area so we feel FSBO is unfortunately our best option. Thank you for your video. Class Act!
"For Sale By Owner" MEANS THAT... NO AGENT. NO ATTORNEYS. I tell prospective buyers, I will accept your agent, but Im increasing the price 3-4%.. See how fast they change their tune. Pricing, check Zillow for what homes sell for in your neighborhood. House clean up, inside and OUTSIDE.... MOVE THAT RV or tent trailer... Mow and edge your yard. Also, the 2 or 3 ugly houses on your block, talk to the owner/renter and see if your gardener can mow and edge his lawn too.. have him plant some cheap flowers/color... It improves the whole neighborhood, and it might only cost you $200. your house will sell faster.
So you don't pay the buyer agent commission? You may think you are saving money but you are only losing a lot of money here. Because every buyer agent will steer their clients away from your property so you will have far less offers. So what ever you did get offered for your property, it was much lower than it could have been (as you could have had many more offers bidding against each other) which most likely would have given you a higher price which would have more than covered any buyers agent commission
@@alexandercleary6392 you're spot on! Unfortunately, not everyone listens to reason. But, in all fairness to the commenter above, Realtors don't have the best reputations.
After watching this terrific video, I called Doug to ask a specific question regarding selling raw land. To my surprise, not only did he call me back but he gave me his wife's number to follow up with any additional questions! How lovely and helpful! Thank you, Doug & Jill.
This is easily the best FSBO video I have found. Spot on advice that will help you in almost any state. We live in Virginia and while some of the references are different (we use title companies vs real estate attorneys) I had no trouble applying his advice to our location. I also emailed an inquiry to his office and Doug was nice enough to call and spent about 10 minutes going over his advice again. Why does he do this? Easy, most people who try FSBO end up giving up and then work with a realtor. If that happens to us, I certainly won’t go with a guy who gave me bad advice. However I am very likely to go with someone who gave me great advice and helped me make the most of my FSBO opportunity. Finally, we went to several open houses after watching this, and you could tell most of them followed the advice here.
@Duncan Thomas, thanks so much for the kind words. It was great speaking with you and learning more about your FSBO opportunity in Virginia. I'm excited to see you knock it out of the park!! You are well on your way Duncan. Keep us posted.
What a great idea about getting a different number. When I try to sell bigger ticketed items, the about of people that call my cell is unreal and most of them are not serious buyers. Thank you for the tips
Thanks for commenting Jared! Yeah, the open houses are a waste for the client. Good for a new agent prospecting for leads, but not so much for the client.
Interesting video. I've sold my own house and have never paid a commission, not seller's agent or buyer's agent. I especially do not see a reason to pay for the buyer's agent....seems very unfair as the buyer is the one looking for a house. I've done it different ways....before the internet, I use the paper. Now I use Zillow. Works very well.
We will be selling our house in the next month or so. Planning on FSBO. If I am selling it FSBO, can’t I set the rules and guidelines of what my expectations are as a seller? As in I can say that the buyer will pay buyers fees and whatever else? I will pay for or half of my real estate attorney fees?
@Willio Jean Paul, don't even get me started! You're 100% correct! The incredibly low barrier to entry is one of the biggest problems in our industry. Unfortunately, it's designed that way from the top.
No kidding I thought my neighbor was selling my house for me what a stupid sign that's worse than saying I saw it with my own two eyes or she had a smile on her face no she had a smile on her ass
Did you click on the link in the video? I just tried it and it worked fine. If you provide an email I'll send you the guide. Sorry for the trouble you've had.
Daneen, the only documentation that I'm aware of on the subject is from National Association of Realtors. Here's what realtors know for a fact. About 90% of FSBO's eventually give up and hire an agent. If you had watched until the end, I say why I would help FSBO's. Thanks for watching most of the video and commenting. For Sale By Owner (FSBO) Statistics FSBOs accounted for 10% of home sales in 2021. The typical FSBO home sold for $225,000 compared to $330,000 for agent-assisted home sales.

Hey George, thanks for watching our video. We found out through user feedback that the lag-time was too long between capturing the message and getting it delivered to their phones. We've been recommending that folks get a cheap pre-paid phone at Walmart and trash it once the property sells. Hope this helps.
Thank you Doug for the outstanding video. We now have the confidence to list our house. This is a must watch if you are considering For Sale By Owner FISBO
@parkerfamily9447 Thanks for the kind words! Grateful to play a part in the success of your home sale. Please let us and the community know how you made out.
after visiting with Doug, I have come to believe he is a fair an honest real estate agent. I would be comfortable using Doug and Jill to assist me in selling my houses. Listen to his you tube vidio's, I believe you won't be disappointed .
Now we are feeling much better and more prepared to sell our house ourselves. Thank you for sharing this information. We live in SC but we would call you two if we lived in PA!
Thanks @TJ Ruhl! Glad we could help in some way. Also, thanks for the vote of confidence! If you have friends, co-workers or relatives that are buying or selling in PA or NJ, we'd be happy to assist them.
I am an attorney in Michigan and I agree with everything you have said. It is refreshing to hear such a forthright honest presentation. 313-LAWYERS is my number if you or any of your clients need assistance in Michigan.
@Dena thanks for commenting and introducing yourself to us. We will definitely add your name and contact info to our database for future reference. I saw the video of Kelly and Cliff and think attorney's could really benefit from producing a podcast because they require so much less work than video. Net effect to the firm is that you get more content out into the marketplace and introduce yourselves to prospective clients while helping others that could really benefit from your knowledge. Jill is the one who primarily runs the real estate biz and I am the GM of www.PodcastPeople.com. Let me know if you guys are considering adding podcasting to your marketing mix and I'll set you up with a free trial. Thanks again for commenting and also for the kind words!
@Mark Polakovich, we discovered that using prepaid phones was much better at providing direct contact between prospective buyer and seller. Accordingly, we started recommending that FSBO's go to Walmart, Target, etc. and purchased pre-paid phones.
What if you omit something on the sellers disclosure because you honestly didn’t know there was an issue. And then it turns up on the inspection. Can you get in trouble if you didn’t know?
@@TaylorRealEstateAdvisors I don’t understand your response. So what if, for example, mold was found somewhere and the new owners want to sue us for not disclosing this information. But we honestly didn’t know about the mold. Would they win the case?
@Mary Berberich, thanks so much for the kind words! Means a lot to me! Is there anything you'd like to see me break down in further detail in an upcoming video?
Thank you so much for such a great video I am in the middle of selling my parents house... (my mama just died a few months ago)... What my problem is... This is a House 4 bedrooms one bathroom with almost 3/4 of an acre... This is the country (barely) ... residential... but in the last 7 years... all around us is taking the farmland and and making it commercial... Across the street that used to be a simple two-way street is now called a Highway!! Across the now state highway... is a huge Commercial place putting up HUGE Big Metal Buildings... 3 of them!!! ... and even though it is only across the street, that is in the CITY while we're still in the county... I have been told our house/land could be commercial too. I think that is a total Game Changer... The person that might buy our house/land could also make this commercial... make this 4 bedroom 1 bath into an Airbnb ... or whatever... Also selling commercial I feel we can ask for "Cash" and not have to jump through hoops if it is someone residencial buyer, that is not thinking about improving or investing for the future. I have bought and sold houses... "Flipped" them but this is the biggest one I have ever undertaken. ... I don't know HOW TO Sell this... Commercial or Residential. Don't get me wrong, either is fine... but you know that when someone buys Commercial there is usually more money to be and my problem is this house is old and needs to be updated.... and I do NOT have the money for that... at all. I feel bad that I can't put a lot of money to just clean this up... it breaks my heart. I don't know what my question is now... I guess sell it as Commercial or sell Residential ? Thank you for listening... I'm still confused... LOL
@judichristopher4604, your situation appears to be more complex. I would recommend contacting a licensed agent in your area. They will be best equipped to advise you on which way to go. Wishing you the best of luck. Please let us all know how you've made out.
Legal forms. Im in California, probably the most OVER REGULATED State in the country. The escrow company WILL NOT PROCESS the transaction WITHOUT ALL THE PROPER LEGAL DOCUMENTS. They can provide you with all that you will need. For Sale By Owner means to CUTOUT THE FAT... so far this guy has a half a dozen "PROFESSIONALS" that you dont need, all of then will have their hand in your pockets. DO MORE RESEARCH...
I have a question about fsbo, we have a newly renovated home in florida panhandle..thanks to hurricane Michael lol. How many days notice for showings is appropriate? We have a handicapped child and need some warning. Also # of days for accepting offers before reviewing? Sorry if I've asked the same ?'s for the umpteenth time. I appreciate your time!
M M, Whether selling with a realtor or as a FSBO, it’s completely up to the seller to say how much advance notice is required before showings. You can set up any showing parameters that work for you, just be clear with what times are available. You want to encourage the greatest number of people to see the home, so the shorter the amount of required lead time, the better. Try your best to keep the home in “show ready condition” every day in order to accommodate most showing requests. If possible set up a block of time when all occupants can leave the home and allow all showings by buyers who are accompanied by a licensed realtor. Do not allow unrepresented buyers to tour your home alone. I recommend reviewing all offers upon receipt. In this fast-paced market, waiting to review an offer leaves time for buyers to rethink their offer and possibly cancel their offer in order to move on to another home. Hope this helps. Let us know and our subscribers know how you made out. Good luck!
@@TaylorRealEstateAdvisors Thank you so much for getting back to me. We were just "slightly" considering fsbo. After watching quite a few videos on others experiences...a realtor sounds completely worth saving my sanity lol I think I will move forward in gathering leads on recommended agents in my area. Appreciate your response, videos and straight forward information.
@@MM-xv4fz This is Jill btw. We completely agree with you, for many people going the FSBO route just isn't worth the stress! We have an extensive list of agents in our referral network. Happy to help you find the right agent if you're interested?
This is great info! If you're going to FSBO it's important to be good at negotiation because if you're not you could get steamrolled in the negotiation process.
Mark, Thanks for the kind words! You're 100% correct about the negotiations. Especially in the Reply to Inspection. This is where inexperienced sellers get hammered. Also checked out your channel and you're providing some great advice for buyers and sellers in Orange County. Keep up the great work!
Just watched your video. Thank you. We are trying to sell our home. A little background. We had a contingent offer on a home we wanted, but we had to sell ours first. We had 20 days to sell on our own or we had to sign up with a realtor (the same one who was the seller's agent). Well, we ended up signing a listing contract after 20 days and all she wanted to do was open houses, We disagreed with this marketing tactic. She also refused to try other marketing to sell the home. She had two open houses and no luck. We JUST paid her $1200 to cancel the listing contract. Our thought process was to be able to lower the price if we did not have to pay the 5% commission. We have a unique home and there are no comparisons in the area. How do we price to sell a home when it is one-of-a-kind?
We have specialized in unique homes for the entire time we've been in real estate. Also, this is a more difficult question to answer here. Curiously, why would you have to pay 5% commission?
this is a great video! it was done very well and very informative. good job!!! im still debating to list with a realtor or FSBO, but i just emailed from your website. if you wouldn't mind giving me a CMA, id really appreciate it. thanks!!!
@Brandon - There are definitely pros and cons with both situations, I recommend connecting with realtors and those who have experienced the FSBO route and find out what worked for them and any lessons learned ✌
Appreciate the video as it was very informative and provided sound guidance. On the West Coast and thinking of selling by owner - with the Attorney suggestion provided as a priority.
@Camille, thank you for the kind words! Much appreciated. It definitely makes sense to try to sell it yourself before hiring a realtor. In this case the attorney will be key. Wishing you the very best of luck!
I like the advice, "if you're thinking about moving next year then price it high, buyers going to beat you down anyways" that hilarious. thanks for the advice and a quick laugh.
Great info! Not sure if I missed it, but how do I get the Call Capture 800# that you mentioned as the last step? Liked the idea of not having to put my personal cellphone number out there, everywhere.
Thanks for the kind words Jean! We've found that it's easier and faster response times by using a pre-paid phone that you would get from Walmart or Target. They're around $20 to buy the phone plus whatever minutes package you need.
Hey Doug. Thanks for the video. So you are saying that if I sell my home without a realtor and the purchaser was using a realtor to find the home, I as the seller are responsible for the buyer realtor fee?
That is correct Kevin. But remember, fees are not set in stone. Realtors and more importantly their brokers, can agree to take a lower percentage of the originally agreed to fee of either 3%, 2.75% etc. Thanks for watching the video and commenting!
Sounds like a lot of work. FSBO's may better served by negotiating a commission price w/ an agent? Or, just use the internet/social network to advertise. Offer to pay for an inspection of the property for the buyer (returned at closing). Get a bank/lender qualification or letter of standing from the buyer.... and hire a real estate lawyer to finish the deal. A lawyer will also negotiate a price over a flat commission. I called my local real estate lawyer!!
@@TaylorRealEstateAdvisors A real estate lawyer. They are indeed negotiable. At least the one I talked to. He said, "hourly or a flat fee" to handle the work. If you get an agent for 3%, the title search etc , wouldn''t equal even a percent! So, why would you pay a lawyer 4%? ALSO..... you don't have to pay buyer agent commission fees. They can be added to the price, or aka paid by the buyer.
@@ronedee Completely agree with you that you can and should negotiate the attorney fee. What I was referring to was that a typical FSBO will only save about 2% on the transaction. Or, said another way, they're still paying approximately 4% between buyer commission, attorney fee, transfer tax, etc.
@1947dutchman, thanks for commenting. All closing costs will be the same with the exception of the listing agent commission which you won't have to pay. Most likely you'll stay pay a buyer's agent commission.
About home improvements. kitchen and bath remodels... This guy is half right. A $60,000 kitchen remodel you wont get your money back... But, the truth is a $60,000 kitchen remodel really only costs about $6-8,000 and you will recover all that cost. DO NOT HIRE A KITCHEN REMODEL CONTRACTOR.... Ask around find a "SKILLED" handyman in all the trades.. carpentry, plumbing, electrical. Shop the home improvement stores with him... get a FREE KITCHEN LAYOUT from the big box hardware chain (Home Depot) have the cabinets & countertops delivered and YOU DO HALF THE WORK... NEVER leave even a trusted handyman a job to do in your house... BE THERE, HELP and ASK QUESTIONS. You will SAVE $50,000 on a kitchen remodel, you can thank me later. Bathrooms about half that price. All depends on the quality of stuff you buy. Remember, you're moving out.
The buyer's agent asked for over 8K from me to help cover buyer's closing costs. Is that normal? that would be like paying another agent... I think this is a business technic to get the home price down while apparently the buyer offer to pay almost the full price. Also buy letting the price high the agent gets his full commission but lower the price by asking for "help to cover the closing costs". I am an accountant, we call that "reclassify transaction", LOL
@@WillioJeanPaul Thanks for commenting. Actually Willio many people are successful selling their homes without hiring an agent or going the traditional route. When we created this video we wanted to accurately show what goes into a home sale and then let people decide which way is best for them.
Great Video, good information. Nothing against FSBO, but I'm trying to convince my 82 yr old father, (who lives 500 miles from me) NOT to try to do this alone. He is not physically able to do many of these things. He whines and complains about the commission and fees, and believes that he can put a for sale sign in the yard, and then just walk away with the cash. I'm hoping to show him this video next week, to convince him, that no.. at 82 yrs old...it's going to be a huge PITA and complicated for him to try to do this alone. Thank you.
Thanks for commenting. Have your father give me a call. I would never put my 80+ year old parent in that position. Way too many moving parts especially with you being 500 miles away. No way!
@@TaylorRealEstateAdvisors This was a year ago. I just watched it again and took notes. I still haven't sold, but will this coming January 2024 or June 2024. It will be an "as is" sale and I will use a real estate attorney. Do you know a good one for Florida. I'm in the Tampa Bay Area.
Cynthia, they all do pretty much the same thing. You want to be sure you get your home shown to the greatest number of prospective buyers. Ask the one's you may be considering for a list of all the places your home will be seen. Hope this helps.
I really appreciate such detailed info...I'm in California but my condo is las vegas....I have to sell now due to contracting covid and losing work....my husband as well same thing only he got it worse....so this has really helped me to figure out stuff I need to do....thank you again! youre the best!

This video really helped me a lot. I just went through a divorce (finalized a month ago after a year - don't be sad for me - I'm not) and now I'm trying to sell the house with as little extra costs as possible as I cannot afford a whole lot after the divorce. This video was great! It's given me a good starting point as I have never sold a home before. The one thing I can't seem to find is a link or information on the 1-800# mentioned in step 10. Could someone help me with that part? Either way, great job on the video! Short, sweet and to the point! Thank you so much for taking the time to do this!
Stephany, sorry to hear about your divorce but happy you're taking it so well! Also, thank you very much for the kind words. We're so glad the video was helpful to you.

Great information! Do you have any resources or info for FSBO in WV?We are interested in selling our home ourselves eventually, but have been pretty confused on what we would need to do and where to start. Is a real estate license needed?
@Aoole Puffs, thanks for the kind words and for commenting. Give me a call and I'll point you in the right direction to get started. Also, you are not required to be licensed to sell your own home.
Some good information here. I am not sure what a "good" real estate attorney does for me. I have spoken with two, who admitted that they use a generic RE Contract that is no better than I can find at a Staples or online. They could not name one other thing that I would need them for in a straight forward sale with clear title.
Thank you for the great tips on FSBO. Doug & Jill are great people to share the wealth of knowledge. Definitely adding you to my resource database. If myself or I know are in the Penn market, we will refer to you
@Bgodsfavor j, thanks so much for the kind words! Also, thank you for trusting us to service your referrals. We love bringing the best possible experience to sellers, buyers and even those who choose to go it alone!
Hi Kevin, so sorry for the late reply. Thanks so much for the kind words. How did you make out? Were you successful at selling your home without an agent?
Michael, thanks for the kind words! You're absolutely right about Step 9. The attorney that you hire will walk you through the legalities of your transaction.
How do you go about listing a house that you're living in for the next 5-6 months. Also, would it be wise to pay for an appraisal prior to listing? When I used the VA Home loan, neither the seller or the buyer could know the appraiser, but perhaps it would help to make sure you're listing fair for both the buyer and seller. It might change next year, but if you're selling within the next few months, how drastically could it change in the short time period and different appraisers. Perhaps if it's 2 different appraisals, split the difference and list that?
Thanks for your question Rodney! Jill and I are going to shoot a video answering it in greater detail. Short answer until the video is posted is yes. It would be wise to pay for an appraisal prior to listing and we're going to break down some reasons why.
Thanks Doug for some really great tips! My favorite is the 800# as I really don't want to give out my home/cell phone numbers as there are a lot of SPAMMERS. Not to mention the call capture feature and the fact most potential buyers will be from out of state. I live in Sun City Center FL (a Del Webb 55+ Retirement Community) with 19K year round residents and swell to 40K with SnowBirds and is a very hot market. Also gave you a 'thumbs up' and will be contacting you shortly for more information!

@Lindy with commissions that high I would definitely try the FSBO route first with one caveat. How quickly do you need to be at the next destination?
"For Sale By Owner" MEANS THAT... NO AGENT. NO ATTORNEYS. I tell prospective buyers, I will accept your agent, but Im increasing the price 3-4%.. See how fast they change their tune.
Pricing, check Zillow for what homes sell for in your neighborhood. House clean up, inside and OUTSIDE.... MOVE THAT RV or tent trailer... Mow and edge your yard. Also, the 2 or 3 ugly houses on your block, talk to the owner/renter and see if your gardener can mow and edge his lawn too.. have him plant some cheap flowers/color... It improves the whole neighborhood, and it might only cost you $200. your house will sell faster.
So you don't pay the buyer agent commission? You may think you are saving money but you are only losing a lot of money here. Because every buyer agent will steer their clients away from your property so you will have far less offers. So what ever you did get offered for your property, it was much lower than it could have been (as you could have had many more offers bidding against each other) which most likely would have given you a higher price which would have more than covered any buyers agent commission

So a real estate attorney is required for FSBO but an agent who spent approximately 30-40 hours of training can handle the transaction?

Daneen, the only documentation that I'm aware of on the subject is from National Association of Realtors. Here's what realtors know for a fact. About 90% of FSBO's eventually give up and hire an agent. If you had watched until the end, I say why I would help FSBO's. Thanks for watching most of the video and commenting.

Thank you for the video, Wisconsin home owner and will definitely use your tips.
You're very welcome @crystalgraika8804. Happy to play a part in the success of your home sale. Keep us posted on how you make out. Best of Luck!
How do I get the 1 800 number and answering service
Hey George, thanks for watching our video. We found out through user feedback that the lag-time was too long between capturing the message and getting it delivered to their phones. We've been recommending that folks get a cheap pre-paid phone at Walmart and trash it once the property sells. Hope this helps.
Thank you Doug for the outstanding video. We now have the confidence to list our house. This is a must watch if you are considering For Sale By Owner FISBO
@parkerfamily9447 Thanks for the kind words! Grateful to play a part in the success of your home sale. Please let us and the community know how you made out.
after visiting with Doug, I have come to believe he is a fair an honest real estate agent. I would be comfortable using
Doug and Jill to assist me in selling my houses. Listen to his you tube vidio's, I believe you won't be disappointed .
Thanks for the kind words Curt!! We're excited to assist you wherever we can.
Now we are feeling much better and more prepared to sell our house ourselves. Thank you for sharing this information. We live in SC but we would call you two if we lived in PA!
Thanks @TJ Ruhl! Glad we could help in some way. Also, thanks for the vote of confidence! If you have friends, co-workers or relatives that are buying or selling in PA or NJ, we'd be happy to assist them.
I am an attorney in Michigan and I agree with everything you have said. It is refreshing to hear such a forthright honest presentation. 313-LAWYERS is my number if you or any of your clients need assistance in Michigan.
@Dena thanks for commenting and introducing yourself to us. We will definitely add your name and contact info to our database for future reference. I saw the video of Kelly and Cliff and think attorney's could really benefit from producing a podcast because they require so much less work than video. Net effect to the firm is that you get more content out into the marketplace and introduce yourselves to prospective clients while helping others that could really benefit from your knowledge. Jill is the one who primarily runs the real estate biz and I am the GM of www.PodcastPeople.com. Let me know if you guys are considering adding podcasting to your marketing mix and I'll set you up with a free trial. Thanks again for commenting and also for the kind words!
So does every seller get their own 800 number?
@Mark Polakovich, we discovered that using prepaid phones was much better at providing direct contact between prospective buyer and seller. Accordingly, we started recommending that FSBO's go to Walmart, Target, etc. and purchased pre-paid phones.
This was awesome, thank you so much!
Very helpful!!!
Thanks so much Curt!
@@leojrcabusas3213 Thanks LEO! Did you get your home sold?
What if you omit something on the sellers disclosure because you honestly didn’t know there was an issue. And then it turns up on the inspection.
Can you get in trouble if you didn’t know?
From your lips to God's ears!
@@TaylorRealEstateAdvisors I don’t understand your response. So what if, for example, mold was found somewhere and the new owners want to sue us for not disclosing this information. But we honestly didn’t know about the mold. Would they win the case?
Hi Doug. Your video was helpful and informational. Loved your expertise and knowledge base.
@Mary Berberich, thanks so much for the kind words! Means a lot to me! Is there anything you'd like to see me break down in further detail in an upcoming video?
Thanks for the information. I considering these to sell my house.
Glad we could help Rachel!
Thank you so much for such a great video
I am in the middle of selling my parents house... (my mama just died a few months ago)...
What my problem is... This is a House 4 bedrooms one bathroom with almost 3/4 of an acre...
This is the country (barely) ... residential... but in the last 7 years... all around us is taking the farmland and and making it commercial...
Across the street that used to be a simple two-way street is now called a Highway!!
Across the now state highway... is a huge Commercial place putting up HUGE Big Metal Buildings... 3 of them!!! ... and even though it is only across the street, that is in the CITY while we're still in the county...
I have been told our house/land could be commercial too.
I think that is a total Game Changer... The person that might buy our house/land could also make this commercial... make this 4 bedroom 1 bath into an Airbnb ... or whatever...
Also selling commercial I feel we can ask for "Cash" and not have to jump through hoops if it is someone residencial buyer, that is not thinking about improving or investing for the future.
I have bought and sold houses... "Flipped" them but this is the biggest one I have ever undertaken. ... I don't know HOW TO Sell this... Commercial or Residential. Don't get me wrong, either is fine... but you know that when someone buys Commercial there is usually more money to be
and my problem is this house is old and needs to be updated.... and I do NOT have the money for that... at all.
I feel bad that I can't put a lot of money to just clean this up... it breaks my heart.
I don't know what my question is now... I guess sell it as Commercial or sell Residential ?
Thank you for listening... I'm still confused... LOL
@judichristopher4604, your situation appears to be more complex. I would recommend contacting a licensed agent in your area. They will be best equipped to advise you on which way to go. Wishing you the best of luck. Please let us all know how you've made out.
@@TaylorRealEstateAdvisors
Thank you...
But no need to...
I sold it myself, at the Price I wanted.
@@judichristopher4604 Congratulations! So happy for you! Happy New Year!
@@TaylorRealEstateAdvisors
Thank You Doug...
Happy New Year to you too.
Legal forms. Im in California, probably the most OVER REGULATED State in the country. The escrow company WILL NOT PROCESS the transaction WITHOUT ALL THE PROPER LEGAL DOCUMENTS. They can provide you with all that you will need.
For Sale By Owner means to CUTOUT THE FAT... so far this guy has a half a dozen "PROFESSIONALS" that you dont need, all of then will have their hand in your pockets.
DO MORE RESEARCH...
I'm confused by your comment.
My attorney only wants 1% of the sale. How are you Calculating 3%
I have a question about fsbo, we have a newly renovated home in florida panhandle..thanks to hurricane Michael lol. How many days notice for showings is appropriate? We have a handicapped child and need some warning. Also # of days for accepting offers before reviewing? Sorry if I've asked the same ?'s for the umpteenth time. I appreciate your time!
M M, Whether selling with a realtor or as a FSBO, it’s completely up to the seller to say how much advance notice is required before showings. You can set up any showing parameters that work for you, just be clear with what times are available. You want to encourage the greatest number of people to see the home, so the shorter the amount of required lead time, the better. Try your best to keep the home in “show ready condition” every day in order to accommodate most showing requests. If possible set up a block of time when all occupants can leave the home and allow all showings by buyers who are accompanied by a licensed realtor. Do not allow unrepresented buyers to tour your home alone. I recommend reviewing all offers upon receipt. In this fast-paced market, waiting to review an offer leaves time for buyers to rethink their offer and possibly cancel their offer in order to move on to another home. Hope this helps. Let us know and our subscribers know how you made out. Good luck!
@@TaylorRealEstateAdvisors Thank you so much for getting back to me. We were just "slightly" considering fsbo. After watching quite a few videos on others experiences...a realtor sounds completely worth saving my sanity lol I think I will move forward in gathering leads on recommended agents in my area. Appreciate your response, videos and straight forward information.
@@MM-xv4fz This is Jill btw. We completely agree with you, for many people going the FSBO route just isn't worth the stress! We have an extensive list of agents in our referral network. Happy to help you find the right agent if you're interested?
This is great info! If you're going to FSBO it's important to be good at negotiation because if you're not you could get steamrolled in the negotiation process.
Mark, Thanks for the kind words! You're 100% correct about the negotiations. Especially in the Reply to Inspection. This is where inexperienced sellers get hammered. Also checked out your channel and you're providing some great advice for buyers and sellers in Orange County. Keep up the great work!
Step 1 Hire an experienced real estate attorney to protect you.
Why a sign when anyone can use their smartphone to navigate to the home for sale?
Just watched your video. Thank you. We are trying to sell our home. A little background. We had a contingent offer on a home we wanted, but we had to sell ours first. We had 20 days to sell on our own or we had to sign up with a realtor (the same one who was the seller's agent). Well, we ended up signing a listing contract after 20 days and all she wanted to do was open houses, We disagreed with this marketing tactic. She also refused to try other marketing to sell the home. She had two open houses and no luck. We JUST paid her $1200 to cancel the listing contract. Our thought process was to be able to lower the price if we did not have to pay the 5% commission. We have a unique home and there are no comparisons in the area. How do we price to sell a home when it is one-of-a-kind?
We have specialized in unique homes for the entire time we've been in real estate. Also, this is a more difficult question to answer here. Curiously, why would you have to pay 5% commission?
this is a great video! it was done very well and very informative. good job!!! im still debating to list with a realtor or FSBO, but i just emailed from your website. if you wouldn't mind giving me a CMA, id really appreciate it. thanks!!!
@Brandon - There are definitely pros and cons with both situations, I recommend connecting with realtors and those who have experienced the FSBO route and find out what worked for them and any lessons learned ✌
@@LiveInnerCity Completely agree!
How do we get the 1800#?
We've been recommending using pre-paid phones. This way you're not waiting on a message to be transcribed and delivered. More efficient.
Doug,
Absolutely great video. Very clear to understand the FSBO process and what to consider. Thank you for the information.
JW
So happy you found the video helpful Josiah! Wishing you all the success selling your home!
What kind of paperwork do I need , if I received an offer for my home all cash no contingency do I do just the regular “as is “contract?
My apologies for the delay. I would use Legal Zoom or another avenue for the contract. What state are you in?
Appreciate the video as it was very informative and provided sound guidance. On the West Coast and thinking of selling by owner - with the Attorney suggestion provided as a priority.
@Camille, thank you for the kind words! Much appreciated. It definitely makes sense to try to sell it yourself before hiring a realtor. In this case the attorney will be key. Wishing you the very best of luck!
I like the advice, "if you're thinking about moving next year then price it high, buyers going to beat you down anyways" that hilarious. thanks for the advice and a quick laugh.
@Liem, thanks for the kind words. Glad we were able to provide some solid info with a little levity.😉
Spend $400 on an independent appraiser! (an agent/Realtor is not independent, they want another listing)
@Brian Vaughan, Agreed!!
Great info! Not sure if I missed it, but how do I get the Call Capture 800# that you mentioned as the last step? Liked the idea of not having to put my personal cellphone number out there, everywhere.
Thanks for the kind words Jean! We've found that it's easier and faster response times by using a pre-paid phone that you would get from Walmart or Target. They're around $20 to buy the phone plus whatever minutes package you need.
Hey Doug. Thanks for the video. So you are saying that if I sell my home without a realtor and the purchaser was using a realtor to find the home, I as the seller are responsible for the buyer realtor fee?
That is correct Kevin. But remember, fees are not set in stone. Realtors and more importantly their brokers, can agree to take a lower percentage of the originally agreed to fee of either 3%, 2.75% etc. Thanks for watching the video and commenting!
Thank you for the information!
@Edwin, always happy to help any way we can!
Sounds like a lot of work. FSBO's may better served by negotiating a commission price w/ an agent? Or, just use the internet/social network to advertise. Offer to pay for an inspection of the property for the buyer (returned at closing). Get a bank/lender qualification or letter of standing from the buyer.... and hire a real estate lawyer to finish the deal. A lawyer will also negotiate a price over a flat commission. I called my local real estate lawyer!!
@rone dee, you called what or who?
@@TaylorRealEstateAdvisors A real estate lawyer. They are indeed negotiable. At least the one I talked to. He said, "hourly or a flat fee" to handle the work. If you get an agent for 3%, the title search etc , wouldn''t equal even a percent! So, why would you pay a lawyer 4%? ALSO..... you don't have to pay buyer agent commission fees. They can be added to the price, or aka paid by the buyer.
@@ronedee Completely agree with you that you can and should negotiate the attorney fee. What I was referring to was that a typical FSBO will only save about 2% on the transaction. Or, said another way, they're still paying approximately 4% between buyer commission, attorney fee, transfer tax, etc.
Good info but no mention of closing costs and what if any is different for a FSBO vs a seller with an agent
@1947dutchman, thanks for commenting. All closing costs will be the same with the exception of the listing agent commission which you won't have to pay. Most likely you'll stay pay a buyer's agent commission.
We are selling our house by for sale by owner. This video is great. Thank you!
Thanks Sarah! Wishing you lots of luck selling your home!
Thank you so much! We have a buyer and we just wanted to transfer over without all the hubub. Awesome video!
Thanks so much! We're so happy our video was helpful! Best of luck in the future in your new home!
Very helpful, I plan to use Doug's tips
Thanks Bobby! How'd you make out?
Very helpful.
Thanks Hope! Have you started the process?
About home improvements. kitchen and bath remodels... This guy is half right. A $60,000 kitchen remodel you wont get your money back... But, the truth is a $60,000 kitchen remodel really only costs about $6-8,000 and you will recover all that cost. DO NOT HIRE A KITCHEN REMODEL CONTRACTOR.... Ask around find a "SKILLED" handyman in all the trades.. carpentry, plumbing, electrical. Shop the home improvement stores with him... get a FREE KITCHEN LAYOUT from the big box hardware chain (Home Depot) have the cabinets & countertops delivered and YOU DO HALF THE WORK... NEVER leave even a trusted handyman a job to do in your house... BE THERE, HELP and ASK QUESTIONS. You will SAVE $50,000 on a kitchen remodel, you can thank me later. Bathrooms about half that price. All depends on the quality of stuff you buy. Remember, you're moving out.
Thanks, Doug - we really appreciate it!
@TheRmpost, you're very welcome! Happy to be of service.
Great video, very clear and explanatory
Thanks Lisa! Appreciate the kind words.
The buyer's agent asked for over 8K from me to help cover buyer's closing costs. Is that normal? that would be like paying another agent... I think this is a business technic to get the home price down while apparently the buyer offer to pay almost the full price. Also buy letting the price high the agent gets his full commission but lower the price by asking for "help to cover the closing costs". I am an accountant, we call that "reclassify transaction", LOL
@Lavinia, without knowing all the details, it's tough to say. When is settlement scheduled for?
After watching this video it almost seems like you might as well go the traditional route.
I think that was the point of his video.
@@WillioJeanPaul Thanks for commenting. Actually Willio many people are successful selling their homes without hiring an agent or going the traditional route. When we created this video we wanted to accurately show what goes into a home sale and then let people decide which way is best for them.
Great Video, good information. Nothing against FSBO, but I'm trying to convince my 82 yr old father, (who lives 500 miles from me) NOT to try to do this alone. He is not physically able to do many of these things. He whines and complains about the commission and fees, and believes that he can put a for sale sign in the yard, and then just walk away with the cash. I'm hoping to show him this video next week, to convince him, that no.. at 82 yrs old...it's going to be a huge PITA and complicated for him to try to do this alone. Thank you.
Thanks for commenting. Have your father give me a call. I would never put my 80+ year old parent in that position. Way too many moving parts especially with you being 500 miles away. No way!
Thanks for the help

I don't see the link mentioned for MLS flat fee services. There are lots of them out there. Which is the best?
Cynthia, they all do pretty much the same thing. You want to be sure you get your home shown to the greatest number of prospective buyers. Ask the one's you may be considering for a list of all the places your home will be seen. Hope this helps.

I just went through a divorce (finalized a month ago after a year - don't be sad for me - I'm not) and now I'm trying to sell the house with as little extra costs as possible as I cannot afford a whole lot after the divorce. This video was great! It's given me a good starting point as I have never sold a home before. The one thing I can't seem to find is a link or information on the 1-800# mentioned in step 10. Could someone help me with that part?

They could not name one other thing that I would need them for in a straight forward sale with clear title.

Somehow I am not seeing the 800 number connection?
After much feedback, the majority of folks preferred a prepaid phone from Walmart, Target, etc. They were able to control the process without delay.
How do you go about listing a house that you're living in for the next 5-6 months. Also, would it be wise to pay for an appraisal prior to listing? When I used the VA Home loan, neither the seller or the buyer could know the appraiser, but perhaps it would help to make sure you're listing fair for both the buyer and seller. It might change next year, but if you're selling within the next few months, how drastically could it change in the short time period and different appraisers. Perhaps if it's 2 different appraisals, split the difference and list that?
Thanks for your question Rodney! Jill and I are going to shoot a video answering it in greater detail. Short answer until the video is posted is yes. It would be wise to pay for an appraisal prior to listing and we're going to break down some reasons why.
@Rodney your question is answered in this video. ua-cam.com/video/4zBXf9evlMw/v-deo.html

Thanks Doug for some really great tips! My favorite is the 800# as I really don't want to give out my home/cell phone numbers as there are a lot of SPAMMERS.
