Discount Companies, Discount Agents and For Sale By Owner (FSBO's)

FSBO's

FSBO's (For Sale By Owners)  So you want to sell you home yourself?   Sharon understands.  Thousands of dollars in savings is a large incentive for someone to attempt to market their home alone.   If you choose this path, Sharon can still help you by giving you referrals to home repair contractors, closing attorneys, title insurance agents, appraisers, etc.   

However, Sharon is only allowed to give advice when there is a Fiduciary relationship (when the client has actually hired Sharon to look out for their best interests).  Sharon works with Sellers every month, she knows what to look out for.  With Sharon looking out for your best interests she can help you negotiate the entire process with no surprises.

Discount Brokers

Sharon has a notebook of Discount Brokers that she is willing to share the information with you when you allow her into your home to discuss your personal real estate goals.  It is surprising how many of these discount brokers have gone out of business during these tough economic times.

Bottom line--The lower the commission, the greater number of houses a discount Broker/Agent must sell to create their necessary income.  Basic logistics make it impossible for the discount Brokers/Agents to give you the level of service you can expect from Sharon.  Other discount companies charge a flat fee to market your home whether or not it sells, where is their motivation in selling your home?   Watch out for the discount companies that charge you an additional fee when you decide to remove your home from the market..  If you choose to go the discount route, be sure and read the fine print.

If you are serious about selling your home in these times talk to Sharon.  She is a  Licensed, Experienced, Professional Realtor, and she is worth every penny.
