Some Packages Include:
Until Sold Listing
The average home takes around 5-6 months to sell - if not longer. Having an "Until Sold" listing ensures your house is online indefinitely for a flat fee.
Post Your Home in Your Local MLS
Reach more potential buyers by advertising your property on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) and Realtor.com for 6 months. Many buyers use agents to find a property, and those agents use the MLS to locate properties for sale. By offering a buyer's agent a 2-3% commission, you are 25% more likely to sell you home and speed up the sale of your home. Of course, if you sell your home directly to a buyer (without an buyer's agent) you would pay no commission at all! Learn more about selling your home on the MLS and Realtor.com [+].

More than 84% of buyers use the internet to search for a home.

In addition, online classified websites are cluttered and do not offer real estate resources. Discount agents and local real estate companies have limited traffic and exposure.
Sale By Owner is one of the country's leading "For Sale By Owner" websites and provides extensive online access as well as all real estate resources needed to guide you through the selling process.
