You are not being represented. .
the buyer is.. .

Is like negotiating the release of a hostage . .
and instead of calling professionals. .
the police would allow a family member to negotiate the release  of the hostage. .

"You are too emotionally  involved with your house to be effective"

One word, one act could be the seed that will reduce your net by thousands of dollars. .
be careful what you say. 
The other agent won't deliberately try to harm you, but 
He/she wants the best for his client and wants to make sure you will end with the bill after feasting at an expensive restaurant about the sale of your house.

One slip that lets the other "party" know that you are somewhat  anxious, or highly motivated seller. .offers are more likely  to be lower. 

When negotiating , don't stick around and get drawn into a conversation about price and/or your motivation to try to "un-convince" yourself of your "outrageous demands". .worse yet,  
you could say something you'll be sorry for. .

That is exactly why you should be represented to be fair. .
to your side!

In an attempt to save a few dollars, a for sale by owner  may end up losing a lot  of money by being bullied on the negotiations part. 

If a buyer who is represented by an agent is interested in a FSBO home, that buyer's agent may already know that the seller is saving 6% . . and they have room to negotiate already. 

Statistics show that most FSBO's do not actually save the 6% but pass on the savings to the buyer while they represent themselves

The Importance of the MLS 

(Multiple Listing Service) 

Why is the MLS important to for sale by owners? (FSBO's) 

Because is the place and  primary source of information about homes currently for sale and the prices at which other homes have been sold
These are called comparables and the MLS is the place where they are.

Comparables are key in determining the pricing of your home and a great resource for buyers, sellers agents, appraisers and brokers..

"Home sellers benefit from exposure of their listings to a wide audience of potential buyers"

In addition, for sale by owners take advantage of such unique tool to expose their homes to most of the buyers out there... 

But there is a catch!

Watch the video below to see the catch of the MLS to:
For Sale By Owners and what is syndication?

Did you know that the MLS alone represent over 90% as the reason why a home was sold?

"MLS networks are very important to the operation of real estate markets that, as a practical matter, any for sale by owner who wishes to compete effectively in a market must participate in the local MLS" 

 If I was a seller, knowing what I learned by being a broker and real estate agent since 1990..I would make sure my property was listed in the MLS

The Pricing Of Your Home

Overpricing your house can make it take longer to sell,
Under-pricing your house can make your house sell fast. .
So you want to get the price just right.
Not too high. . not too low. . just right

There is a myth out there that is going around. . 

You want to "try" the market . 

others call it "Testing the Market" 

But I can assure you, right here --right now
You are not fooling anyone!

You house will sell for what a lender is willing to lend to the buyer. .
and lenders use APPRAISERS FOR EVERY LOAN!

While you may set a high price with the idea of having negotiating room, if you set it too high, many prospective buyers won't even bother looking at your home. . 
The ones they do are comparing them with "well priced homes" and you will be losing in the comparison game.

In reality, having some negotiating room is fine, but even in a sellers market , overpricing by more than 10% will make your competitors look good and you will be the reason why those houses sell 

Watch the video below to see the importance in pricing your home.

Did you know that just the fact that you are a FSBO alone would put you at a disadvantage when negotiation the sales price.

The other side knows you are saving the commissions. . and they want part . . or all of it!

Buyers aren't fair. .but they are smart!

 If I was a seller, knowing what I learned by being a broker and real estate agent since 1990..I would order an appraisal.

A $500 investment that will assure me a good platform to negotiate for my house. . .
and I will not blindsided with low offers and wondering if I should take them or not. ..

                       You are not alone. .
