Even if a simple sign in your yard did produce a buyer knocking on your door, how will you handle the following questions:
First and foremost, don't allow strangers in your home without knowing something about them. We get people qualified and know who they are before we put them in our car! There is too much risk of working with people you don't know and having a complete stranger come through your house!
"How does your home compare to others like it in Kingman, Bullhead City and Lake Havasu City?"
"How did you determine the fair market value of this property?"
"What about financing? Can you help?"
"If I make an offer, who will draw up the paperwork?"
"Why aren't you using a REALTOR? And since you're not using a REALTOR, then we can drop the price by thousands since you're not paying one!"
Is there something wrong with the property? And how are you going to disclose to me legally those mandatory disclosures done normally through a REALTOR?
Selling your home is one of the most important financial transactions you will make in your life. Don't take risks. Selling your home is nothing like selling a car. Every home is different, and every homebuyer wants to offer you as little as possible. How do you determine the real market value?
Almost all homes are sold using a REALTOR. As a top real estate professional, it is my job to help you negotiate with all those buyers who want something for nothing. Not to mention preparing your home for sale, marketing it locally in Kingman, Bullhead City and Lake Havasu City and even nationally, and guiding you through the complex paperwork and pitfalls of escrow and closing. Make sure you are really ready to handle all of that before pounding that sign into your front yard. Errors can be extremely costly. And beware of the "Professional Speculator".
Remember: Buyers want to offer you as close to nothing as possible! While that "For Sale By Owner" sign might sound like a good idea, it usually means, unless you're a licensed REALTOR yourself, you are in for a surpise with all the new laws on the books today governing selling real estate...
If you must sell your own home, at least let me give you a sense of its true market value. Provide you with the documents you'll need to put an offer together and that will at least help you get started to cover your interest as much as possible on your own.
