1 Coldwell Banker Burnet Understanding the Limitations of For Sale By Owner Presented by: Ken Tibesar Licensed Realtor Sales Agent MENU

2 What does For-Sale-by-Owner mean? Doing by yourself for the first time what Coldwell Banker has refined through years of EXPERIENCE. A Realtor, his Broker and his company have the EXPERIENCE to perform tasks such as: Price and position your property in the marketplace Professionally market your home online Manage showings, meet buyers, conduct open houses Handle all paperwork, disclosures and other legal issues Help potential buyers obtain financing Showing home to qualified buyers only Answer all questions without bias or emotion Negotiate the sale using market analysis to justify your price Spending your $ s where it really counts There is nothing new under the sun, but there are lots of old things we don't know yet. Ambrose Bierce There are many truths of which the full meaning cannot be realized until personal experience has brought it home. John Stuart Mill Source: Profile of Buyers and Sellers, NAR Research

3 For Sale By Owner Statistics from 2011 FSBOs accounted for 10% of home sales Homes sold for $150,000 compared to $215,000 for agentassisted sales FSBO Methods Used to Market Home: Yard sign % Listing on Internet... 33% Friends/neighbors....27% Open house % Newspaper ad % For-sale-by-owner Web site..12% Most Difficult Tasks for FSBO Sellers: Getting the right price... 12% Understanding the paperwork: 11% Having enough time to devote to the sale: 6% Preparing/fixing up home for sale: 5% Selling within the planned length of time: 5%

4 Why do some sellers try to do it on their own? Some Facts about FSBOs: 56% of sellers who sold their own home say they did not want to pay a commission or fee. Other reasons included: 21% sold their home to a friend or relative 11% were contacted directly by a buyer 6% did not want to deal with an agent $ Allocations For Sale by Owner: 1-2% for governmental fees, title work, transfer costs, closing costs, legal $1,000 - $2,000 upfront costs for FSBO agencies (depending on options selected) $2,000+ added costs, legal support, ads, signs, consulting, misc support 3% commission to buying agent (don t have to use but odds of selling drop significantly) Unknown LEGAL fees may be required Risk of $4,000+ (even if not sold) $ Allocations for Realtor Listing: 1-2% for governmental fees, title work, transfer costs, closing costs, legal 3% commission to buying agent 3% commission to listing agent NO UP-FRONT COSTS NO COSTS IF NOT SOLD Are you Willing to Take the Risk of NOT SELLING????? Source: 2007 Profile of Buyers and Sellers, NAR Research

5 What sellers who sold on their own did not realize Selling your own home usually does not result in the best price: Buyers will expect a reduced price since you do not pay a commission The median selling price of FSBO homes was $180,000 compared with $240,000 for agent-assisted home sales. Realtors get 10-20% higher price for the home than FSBO NEGOTIATIONS using market value and without emotion Difference more than covers the Realtors commission Agent knows what points sell a home and knows the market Buyers EXPECT lower prices from FSBO sellers Source: 2007 Profile of Buyers and Sellers, NAR Research

6 Marketing Issues for a For-Sale-By-Owner Where do I EFFECTIVELY spend my marketing S s? For-Sale-By-Owner are not marketing professionals. Marketing experience is the best teacher available. For-Sale-By-Owner companies can assist with marketing but each step adds cost. For-Sale-By-Owner frequently use the least effective and most costly methods to attract buyers including: 50% relied upon yard signs as their single source for advertising 24% placed newspaper ads (>90% of today s buyers use the internet) Only 25% effectively conducted open houses Only 21% used the internet to market their property Only 6% sent direct mail to a database of prospective buyers (at an additional cost) Source: 2007 Profile of Buyers and Sellers, NAR Research

7 Major Problem Areas for For-Sale-By-Owner Many FSBOs are not prepared for the complexities of the real estate transaction. As a result, they often lose potential buyers and valuable market time. They may also face certain risks with respect to paperwork and legal issues. Only 18% said they understood the paperwork involved 15% said they were able to set the right price in the marketplace Only 6% could help buyers obtain financing 11% said they sold within the length of time they had planned on Source: 2007 Profile of Buyers and Sellers, NAR Research
