Martin Morris - Back Valley, SA
After listing with an agent for over twelve months with no positive result ,we decided to privately list it with Forsalebyowner.
Their efficient helpful service made listing easy, and resulted in a sale in just over two months. We would highly recommend Forsalebyowner to any prospective seller.
John and Dorelle Brereton - Mannum, SA
We are an older couple and although we have sold many homes previously, this was the first time without a land agent. A little hesitant at first but the professional support we received from For Sale By Owner relieved any doubts we may have had.
Selling a house in country areas is far more costly when dealing with land agents. We were able to reduce our asking price which makes the house more price attractive. A big thanks and we would certainly use this service again if the need arises
Ann & Tom Osborne - Tea Tree Gully, SA
Hi Paul, Just to let you know we have SOLD.
Details are:
1) Sold in under 3 weeks. 2) Two local agents quoted me $390k – $395k. We sold for $412,500 3) With no RE Commissions to pay we have saved around $30k – $35k by using FSBO.
The process was straight forward. Would we recommend FSBO? We already have, no hesitation.

Dear Simon and the team at For Sale By Owner.
We have now sold our home through your website, we would like to say a big thank you for all your help along the way – including many chat calls and questions promptly answered by you all at any time. I thought it would be a daunting process to sell a property ourselves, however, with your support this went like clockwork.
Please thank everyone on our behalf, we will highly recommend your website to anyone as an extremely efficient way of marketing a property or land for sale. The saving of thousands of dollars in Real Estate fees has been a huge bonus!
Steve and Alison Perkins - Tea Tree Gully, SA
We will be have a settlement date of the 30th June for our property, I have attached a photo of the sold sticker on our board! I will get the open inspection flag posted back to you asap.
We have found the whole experience with forsalebyowner.com.au to be very smooth and easy, in fact still can’t believe how easy it was to sell our house and to have it under contract so fast. The support from yourself and Colin has been fantastic, it was great knowing that you were contactable at most times unlike sales agent.
Again many thanks for this great money saving experience and we will definitely be recommending forsalebyowner.com.au to any of our friends or colleagues considering to sell their houses.
Gerard Menzel - Stawell, VIC
The whole process is easy to follow with solid support from A to Z.
The website is user-friendly and clear even for an ordonary non geek person.
I sold my house within 10 days after listing it early Nov which is a proven best time to move property.
Elizabeth Jones - The Caves, QLD
I had a contract on my house in 5 weeks thanks to For Sale By Owner.
I found this a simple to use and very cost effective marketing plan.
If I needed to sell again I would definitely use For Sale By Owner.
Lesley & Jeff Nye - Coolamon, NSW
I’ll attach a couple of photos and you can mention that our property sold on the same day it went on the market and we were very happy with ‘forsalebyowner’ site.
Ruby Rogers - Edmonton, QLD
As a single lady on my own I was very overwhelmed with the idea of selling my Strata Titled property myself, however, my friend who has also used for sale by owner twice already, said; ‘its easy just give it a go’. So that’s what I did, and from the very first contact my fears started to fade. That’s when I found out that your never on your own everyone is just a phone call away.
I had two people go through my property and the second one bought it, couldn’t be easier. The last thing I would have to say about for sale by owner, is how professional the whole process is, not just the people, the kit you get sent to you has everything in there that you would need to be organized and confident.
Well done guys!
Hugh & Marlene Lillico - Penguin, TAS
Thanks to For Sale By Owner after the successful sale of our home. After having the home on the market for 10 months with agents it sold within 6 weeks of our listing with FSBO.
The whole process was very simple and we would highly recommend anyone to give it a try and save dollars!!
Summa Hicks - Banora Point, NSW
The experience we have had selling our own home we would definitely recommend to other home owners. Who better to sell your home other than yourself you know the most about the property the area, neighbours, schools etc.
We opened our house to potential buyers and requested feedback just as an agent would have, except we didn’t have to pay the commission once we sold! Negotiation was a little different as it made me nervous but I persisted and stuck to the price I required and we turned out quite good negotiators.
For sale buy Owner worked for us as sellers as the company assisted in our needs with signage and flyers which looked so professional on the open homes.The service we received was prompt and professional and I loved the very quick responses via email from Paul exceptional.
Thanks for everything Paul we will highly recommend your service to people and I would advise people to give the process a go themselves it is quite self rewarding to achieve the sale!
Maryann Angel - Tanunda, SA
One has to be prepared to negotiate and liaise with the purchaser of course and have the time to do it. In our case I had the time, and we saved a lot of money by acting as our own agents!
Bev Davis - Wellington Point, QLD
I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to sell my own home, It was an empowering experience placing the SOLD sign up, as I had achieved selling it My Way with Integrity & Honesty.
Throughout the open homes I received very positive feedback from all potential home buyers especially noting my honesty when dealing with their questions etc.. (Real Estate Agents Take Note) When the time arises in the future I will definitely be selling my current home the same way.
Thank you again for making this option available to amateurs like myself, I found all the support & communication from the FSBO team to be very efficient & helpful.
Marie Brelsford-Smith - Humpty Doo, NT
We had our house professionally valued, priced it at $5K less than valuation, and sold it to cash buyer for asking price within 2 months. Around 12 parties contacted us and we are certain genuine buyers were not put off because we were selling it ourselves.
t’s time we all took a stand against outrageous agents fees – especially when they can do the house more harm than good. We will always use FSBO for any future house sales and commend the online and telephone support we received.
Bob and Sandra Caines - Hewett, SA
My Husband and I were very pleased to deal with For Sale By Owner as when ever we needed them for advice they were on the phone promptly, my only regret was not listening to Colin’s advice when he advised us not to take on a six month long settlement as it was far too long and stressful and as it turned out we had two other offers which could have settled much sooner but we were stuck waiting for our long settlement buyers. We would certainly use For sale By Owner again but listen to their advice next time.
The real benefit is not having to pay a Real Estate Agent the Huge amount of money they demand ! I have already recommended For Sale By Owner To other people and will do it again. Thank You again For Sale By Owner.
Natalie Crocker - Springvale, NSW
Listing my property with For Sale by Owner was one of the best decisions I have made.
2 years ago I had it listed with a real estate agent and had minimal enquiries made. After I paid thousands in Real Estate fees I decided to sell the property myself. Since listing with For Sale By Owner I have sold my property within weeks and at minimal cost. Highly Recommended! Thank you for making it easy!
Ritta Khoury - Peakhurst, NSW
We have been delighted with our success in selling our property through Forsalebyowner. We had our property listed for sale by an agent last year and pulled it off the market due to no success over a 6 month listing. We decided to use ForSalebyowner and test our luck with a private sale.
I am very pleased with the way everything went. The entire experience was seamless and easy – from signing up, to listing, to help with getting the photos loaded – the team were very responsive and helpful. Also, the online account and the ability to manage our own listing was a real differentiator. I could easily access our listing and make immediate changes to the open house times and some of the ad wording in order to address frequent buyer questions
I would highly recommend forsalebyowner to anyone wanting to take effective control of selling their own property and save on traditional agent commission fees.
Garry Brand - Trott Park, SA
We had a good result selling our house through “For Sale by Owner”. We had been thinking about selling for over 4 years as we wanted to downsize in to a Unit. When we finally decided to sell the Agents were all talking about prices in this area of around $365,000, but we needed more, & were confident of getting it.
I looked on the Internet at selling privately, & found “For Sale by Owner”, & signed up. We got more for our Property than the Agents said we would get, (we knew our place was worth more) & we saved nearly $10,000.
So even though it may seem a bit daunting at first, ask yourself this question, – “Who can sell my property better than me”? I personally feel that the owner knows what value it is worth! We have sold 5 properties over the last 36 years of our marriage, this is the first time we have used the Internet, but doing it with “For Sale by Owner” was really easy, & very good value for money, & I personally would recommend it for anyone. All you need is a Conveyancer to do all the ‘Legals’, & you have to have one even when you sell through an Agent.
Martin and Jan Hawley-Denby - Deloraine, TAS
We had the house on the market for $449,000 and we received $441,000 for it.
Going with forsalebyowner was painless and saved us heaps of commission. We had never sold a property ourselves before. It was great knowing that although we were selling the property ourselves, we were certainly not left to our own devices. Whenever we had a query we just sent an email and it was answered immediately by Paul or Colin.
If we ever choose to sell another property, we’ll definitely be doing it through forsalebyowner. Thankyou Paul and Colin.
Niti Hara - Tarneit, VIC
A huge thanks to team at forsalebyowner for helping us with selling a piece of land. The whole experience has been hassle free. It was real advantage to deal directly with prospective buyers, it helped to build the trust and made every part of negotiation an honest deal.
We saved heaps by not paying agents fees and getting the price what we anticipated for. I would highly recommend using forsalebyowner to sell your property. Thanks
