 You guys worked harder than my last real estate agent.

 It is unbelieveable how effective your private list real estate company is. I listed my house on your website and paid $129 for one of your packages. IT SOLD IN 9 DAYS!! I SAVED $12,000 IN REAL ESTATE FEES!! I still cannot believe it. The buyer told me they found the house by one of the directional arrows you installed down the street. They took my web address off the sign and viewed my listing on their computer. That sold them. Thanks again for all your hard work. I can honestly say you worked harder for me than real estate agents I have had sell my homes in the past. I told some guys at work about my experience. You will be hearing from them in the future. Thanks again for everything. I will certainly recommend your homes for sale private service.

 Your For Sale By Owner advertising system worked great for us. We sold our home in 17 days. We had real estate agents coming at us from all directions telling us we could not do it ourself. Well, they were wrong! It was obviously a commission cheque talking. Our lawyer helped us with the paperwork and everything ran smooth. Thanks for all your help. We will certainly recommend your private sale service to everyone.

 I wonder why real estate agents charge so much for something you can do yourself. I saved $27,000 in real estate fees. The last time I used an agent, I paid them $18,000 just to list my home on MLS. They never advertised it or have any open houses. I spent $400 in ads and had 2 open houses. I got a buyer in 5 weeks. Does it not make sense to make an effort to sell private? You will never convince me otherwise. By the way, thank you for all your help. I learned a lot about the real estate business from you. You will have some referrals coming your way.

 I just wanted to take a minute and thank you for everything you have done for me so far. Although I just posted my home on your for sale by owner website, I am very impressed with your professionalism. I also want you to know that the amount of work you have contributed has not gone unnoticed. Within 24 hours of my home being posted on HomesByOwner.com, I received 2 phone calls. Wish me a quick sale!

 We listed our home on your for sale by owner website on March 5, 2009. We sold it privately on March 20th. Previous to this, we had it listed with a real estate company for over 1 year. We did receive an offer in that time period that was not acceptable. We were very happy with your professional service. Thank you.

 On December 5, 2008 we listed our home on HomesByOwner.com. Maybe not the best time of year to try to sell a home. It did sell in March after 95 days. Considering we saved $21,000 in real estate fees, it was well worth the effort. We will certainly use your service again when we sell. Thank you for everything you did for us.

 You helped us sell our home recently. Thank you for the excellent service. When we called your office, a live person answered the phone. When we required open house signs, they were delivered promptly. The feature sheet box was always kept full. Thank you for the excellent service!!

 We put our home on your private sale website in April. We sold privately in 15 days. If we paid a real estate agent 5%, it would have cost us $14,200 in commissions. We are glad we used your service. Thank you for your help.

 We listed our home on HomesByOwner.com and it sold through your marketing efforts. Our sale was the direct result of you installing a brochure box on our sign post. Our buyer stopped, took a feature sheet and then contacted us. Your system does work and best of all, it is at an affordable price. A home owner can use your For Sale By Owner method and save paying real estate fees. Thank you for the excellent service and helping us sell our home.

 We just sold our property on your FSBO website and wanted to take a minute to thank you for everything you have done. We were referred to you by a friend that used your service. We received everything they said and more. You always came through when we needed some feature sheets or open house signs. Everytime we called you answered the phone. This assured us that we were getting hands on assistance to sell our home. Your knowledge of the real estate business saved us thousands of dollars now and more in the future. We sold our property in 46 days and based on a 5% commission, saved $18,500 in real estate fees. You will be having many more customers coming your way as we are telling everyone we know about our experience with HomesByOwner.com. Thanks again and you will certainly hear from us next time we sell.

 Last fall I used your service to sell a property for sale by owner that I owned. It sold in 9 days and I save $12,000. Your directional signs were responsible for bringing the traffic to the house. On May 13, 2008 I listed another home. It sold on June 9. A friend of the buyer was out for a walk and noticed the for sale sign on my lawn. They contacted them and the rest is history. For 28 days of work selling my own home I saved $11,550. Considering the 2 houses I sold through HomesByOwner.com, I saved $23,550 for 37 days work. I paid myself $636 A DAY. Not a bad paying part-time job. I cannot thank you enough for your hard work and professional service. Am I sold on HomesByOwner of Durham Region? You know the answer to that question. Like I said before, why to people use a real estate agent for something they can do themselves and save thousands of dollars? Thanks again.

 Selling privately was a real experience for me. The best way I can explain it is it was awesome. I will never use a real estate agent again. I did meet some and all they did was try to scare me into listing with them. It's funny, everything they said was the complete opposite of how things actually transpired. For example, they said I would have people knocking on my door insisting to see the house. All contact was initially by phone and everyone was very reasonable to deal with when booking an appointment. The paperwork was a breeze because I had my lawyer do it. He said there are a lot of private sales coming into his office. I am now moved into my new home which I bought privately as well. Thanks for all your help. I will use your services again when I sell.

 We were referred to your company by a friend that sold their property successfully on your FSBO website. We had never thought of attempting a For Sale By Owner. They sold in 37 days and saved around $21,000 in real estate agents fees. That convinced us to give it a try. I must say, you guys are amazing. You came through with everything you promised and more. We did check out the other private sale companies and they did not come close to what you offer. You were very confident when you answered our questions. Now the best part. We sold in 53 days. Plus it was fun. We had a lot of real estate agents try to scare us with their claims that we could not pull it off. Boy, were they wrong. We found a buyer, then handed everything over to our lawyer. We figure we saved around $14,000. Based on this, we will never use a realtor to sell our homes in the future. We saved money and had fun doing it. Thanks again Mark, we are telling everyone we know how you operate your FSBO company. We will be sending alot of business your way.

 Thank you HomesByOwner.com. We have just sold our property using your system. In March we listed our home on a For Sale By Owner website that claimed to be the best. They claim that since their signs are 'cute', they will do the job. In 2 months we had 2 calls. We were very disappointed because we spent a lot of money for nothing. All we got was a sign and a book to read. Their local representative was useless. We came across your company by some ads for homes we saw on some websites. What impressed us about your company was the fact we were talking with someone that used to be a real estate agent. This assured us that we had the assistance of someone that knew how to sell homes. Boy, did it pay off! The amount of information we received was great. We will use your FSBO companay again and will refer you to everyone we talk to.

 We were a little skeptical about being able to sell our home and it cost us only a few hundred dollars. Boy, were we surprised! Your company came through with everything you promised. It did take us 48 days to sell our home, but we saved $27,000 in real estate fees. Thank you for all your help and we will be sure to recommend you to everyone we talk to about real estate.

 I listed my home on your For Sale By Owner website last week. Although it has not sold yet, I am getting some calls. I also notice that I am averaging around 40 hits a day on my ad. The real reason I am writing this testimonial is that I want to thank you for the professional approach you have taken to help me sell my home privately. I was a little apprehensive to shell out money for this service. I did some research and found there are other FSBO companies out there, but none had the real estate background that you have. I notice that when I ask a question, there is no hesitation in providing an answer. Knowledge of marketing is one thing, but to deal with someone that has years of experience selling real estate is icing on the cake. Thanks again and I am sure I will get a quick sale with the help of HomesByOwner.com.

 The same day I ordered your advertising package, you delivered the signs. We thought we would have to wait longer. We enjoyed selling our home ourselves. This was our first time, and although we were a little apprehensive, everything worked out fine. There was no tention meeting and showing the home to buyers. We will always sell our home ourselves from now on. We saved enough commission to pay cash for a new car. WOW!! Thanks for the excellent service, HomesByOwner.

 A friend at work sold her home privately last year. So, after hearing her success story, I decided to try as well. Being on my own, I wondered if I was making the right decision. It was a piece of cake. I met some of the nicest people and everything went smooth. I sold through a real estate agent 10 years ago, and I was always on edge wondering what was going on with my sale. You guys gave me the tools to do it myself, and I don't have any regrets. My lawyer helped with the offer. Thanks for the excellent marketing system. I will recommend you to everyone I know.

 My husband wanted to try the For Sale By Owner route to sell our home of 28 years. Boy, was I scared! After 6 weeks, we had an offer for exactly what we were asking. I can see I was making a mountain out of a mole hill. The only time I heard my husband complain was when he had to cut the grass and manouver around the for sale sign. We are using some of the commission we saved to go on a cruise this winter. Bob and I cannot thank you guys enough for the uncomplicatd system for us to market our home.

 When my husband and I decided to sell our home, we talked to a few real estate agents. We could not get the answers to our questions we wanted to hear. So we decided to try selling on our own. Our neighbour tried last year, and sold privately in 8 days. From the time we put up the sign with our web address on it, we had a buyer in 6 days. And we thought we would be in for the long haul. And know what we did regarding the offer? We got out the one from when we bought the house. We found the paperwork to be very simple to work with. We saved over $18,000 in commissions. What is so difficult about selling a home? Thanks for all your help, HomesByOwner of Durham Region!

 HomesByOwner of Durham Region had what we were looking for. The package we selected marketed our property beyond our expectations, and at a cost less than what we expected to pay. We saved $12,031 including GST. Thanks HomesByOwner. You guys are great!

 I cannot thank you enough for all you did to help selling my home. When you came to take the photos, you gave me some very simple instructions. You were always available when I had a question. The lady that bought my townhouse was the most pleasant to deal with. The day after she viewed it, she called me to make arrangements to drop off an offer. She gave me 3 days to give her an answer. I took it to my lawyer who said it must have been prepared by her lawyer as it was all in order. I accepted it and my home was sold. Now let's see, I paid HomesByOwner of Durham Region $200 and saved $9,200 in real estate fees. Why is everyone not selling For Sale By Owner? This was so simple, I keep wondering if something is going to go wrong. But my lawyer helped me with everything and I am moved now to my new home. Thank you again and I will always recommend your private sale company. I am sure there are alot of people out there that want to save thousands of dollars in real estate commission.

 Your homes by owner company is everything you said it is. We listed our Bowmanville For Sale By Owner home on your website. We had our first open house a week later. The first person that attended bought our house. They said they saw the announcement posted on the HomesByOwner website. So, your system works. Oh, by the way, we saved $14,500 in real estate fees. Not bad for about 2 weeks work. And part-time at that. Thanks for all your help. We will be talking to you when it is time to sell again.

 I am still reeling from my experience selling my home privately on HomesByOwner.com. As you recall, you came to our home and spent 3 hours taking photos and educating us on the real estate business. The next weekend, which was a holiday, we had open houses on the Saturday, Sunday and Monday. On Saturday we had 20 people through. Sunday we had 8, but the weather was bad. On Monday 9 buyers came through. Later that day we had 2 offers on our home. We sold for 99% of the asking price. Some might ask how we came up with the price. We had 3 real estate agents do a market evaluation for us. They were all in the same ballpark and we listed for what they suggested. Based on a commission of 6%, we saved $17,400. This is our first home and we bought it privately. Now we have experienced a private sale. Why do owners use a real estate agent to sell their property? Thank you again for your professionalism. I will be happy to recommend you to everyone I know that wants to sell their own home.
