Albany Homes For Sale By Owner Tips

In some cases, people think the best idea may be to sell their home themselves. Depending on your personal level of experience, this may not be your best option. Here is a list of just some of the basics that as your listing agent I will do. Saving money on real estate commissions can cost you a fortune in lost time and lost money for your home. Here are just a few things to consider:

  • You will need a comprehensive market analysis for your specific neighborhood in Albany
  • You will need an expert price valuation so your Albany home can sell quickly without under-pricing.
  • You will need a comprehensive marketing campaign in order to receive the highest possible price for your home.
  • You will need to network with Realtors who have buyers who may be interested in purchasing your home.
  • You will need a local advertising campaign including the creation of print and Internet advertising.
  • You will need proper signage to promote your home to local Albany and Corvallis buyers.
  • You will need the proper legal representation to assure the transaction takes place smoothly.
  • You will need someone to coordinate showings and other appointments.
  • You will need someone to conduct, and drive traffic to, your open house.
  • You will need an experienced negotiator who knows what is reasonable and what is not.
  • You will need an expert who understands contingencies, cash offers, and so much more.
  • You will need to pre-screen potential buyers to ensure they are financially qualified to purchase your home. This is also a safety issue.

These are just a few items to consider when thinking about selling your home yourself. At the end of the day, you'll have to ask yourself whether or not it's worth it.

  • 87% of buyers are working with a real estate professional.  Therefore, Unrepresented Sellers (who don't work cooperatively with agents) are only gaining access to 13% of available buyers in the  market.
  • Even for Unrepresented Sellers, PRICE remains the single most important marketing component.  This market is hard enough for active professionals to track and accurately price their listings.  Do you have enough information and objectivity to make sure that YOUR price is the right one to get your home SOLD?
