Why Buy For Sale By Owner?
1. SAVES YOU MONEY
Buying directly from the homeowner in a "For Sale By Owner" transaction can save you thousands of dollars in real estate commission. The 6-7% commission that is typically charged by real estate agents will often be added to the total cost of the home. You, the buyer, are paying this commission in the purchase price. Eliminating the commission from the price of the home will lower the cost, resulting in more home for your money.
2. SAVES YOU TIME
You deal directly with the homeowner rather than through a third party. Communication is faster, more direct and to the point. You will get more accomplished in a shorter length of time which means, "You can be in your new home sooner!"
3. EASY TO DO
Some people think that purchasing real estate from anyone other than a real estate agent or broker is difficult. This myth is far from the truth. Purchasing "For Sale By Owner" is simple.
