Kirsty - Monbulk, VIC
We couldn’t believe when local agents quoted us around $13,000 to sell a property they themselves said would “walk out the door”, receive multiple offers in the first week, sell within 3 weeks etcetera. Even if you allowed 4 hours for writing the listing, booking a photographer, attending three half-hour home opens, writing up offers and witnessing contract signing, that works out at $3,250 an hour! So we thought we’d give For Sale By Owner a shot and had:
* two buyers wanting to view the property prior to first Home Open because they were so keen
* three offers after the first Home Open
* the price we wanted and a contract signed in just 8 days
The people that came through the property all commented on how much they preferred dealing directly with the seller. And we have found, through the purchase of our new property interstate, just how annoying it is to deal with a real estate agent, who has to go away and check with the vendor to answer pretty much every question you have.
The only thing that has me puzzled, given how easy it was to sell the property ourselves, is why doesn’t everyone do this?? Am I missing something??
Abdullah Gok - Huntingdale, WA
Thanks Paul the property has sold and I received an offer with the first home open. I cannot be happier. Your service was first class and your assistance with any issues I had was quick and accurate you made selling my house easy and enjoyable.
But most of all saved me over $10,000 as that was one of the cheapest quotes I had. Both myself and the Buyers won.
As I have other properties that I am considering selling soon I will be using your service again and I am and will be recommending for sale by owner to all my friends and family. I thank you dearly.
Lee & Nathan Bardsley - Tumbi Umbi, NSW
A big Thankyou to Colin, Paul and the team at FSBO!
The setup process was easy and straight forward. The websites & brochure were up and running in no time, the online and telephone support was exceptional!
The outcome was a fantastic sale price, no agent fees for us and one very happy buyer! Highly recommend this service and will never use an agent to sell a property again!
Neville and Yvonne Rieper - Edmonton, QLD
Neville and I have been very happy with your excellent service. You have saved us thousands of dollars in real estate fees.
The stress factor for this sale has been almost zero. In the past when we have sold houses through agents the experiences have mostly been very negative and stressful, costing us an enormous amount of money. You have been very helpful from the start, providing me promptly with answers to my queries in a polite and professional manner via phone or email assistance.
Dealing with forsalebyowner.com.au has been a totally positive one. I would not hesitate in recommending you to others. In fact I have already commenced doing just that.
Thanks again.
Kacey & Nathaniel Rice - Andergrove, QLD
We were motivated to sell ourselves and save money so we thought we would give For Sale By Owner a try. The process was very easy with clear concise instructions given to set up the advertising. Everything you need is provided along with wonderful ongoing support.
We had success after 4 weeks and only 4 inspections! AMAZING! We would definitely do it again and would like to thank the team for their help. Do it! You won’t regret it!
Adam & Jill Michalas - Wilsonton Heights, QLD
I would highly recommend anyone looking at selling their property to try For Sale by owner.com this, if you work full time you can still organize inspections easily, I didn’t have a lot of inspections but the ones i did have were genuine buyers. No extra advertising costs and you are in control.
Delia Lanna - Erina, NSW
House sold. Thank you so much for creating the opportunity to sell ourselves. I would never use a real estate agent again now I know how easy it is to sell your own house!!
Great to have full control of the listing, great to be able to add to or change any details at any time and to see changes updated quickly. Great not to have to deal with real estate agent’s tricks and games – and of course to save thousands in commission.
I believe the people that came to view the property also found it a breath of fresh air to talk to the actual owners, it is much more informal, more personal and was great fun.
Would not hesitate to join up with you again next time and thanks for all your assistance and your quick responses.
Tony Myles - Alexander Heights, WA
The property was advertised over 5 weekends via the print media and Gumtree. We had the home open each Saturday and Sunday over that period. Our highest attendance on any one day was 2 and lowest 0 which was often.
On hearing about ‘forsalebyowner’ we set up with you to advertise through ‘Realestate.com and Domain.com’ under the same criteria as the previous 5 weeks, ie: open every Sat/Sun. On the first Saturday we had 8 couples visit the property and on Sunday we had 12 couples. We received an offer that Sunday which we were very happy with. With the money we saved by not using a real estate agent and the higher than expected offer we calculate we are about $25K better off.
When dealing with’ forsalebyowner’ we found the service to be efficient and friendly. We will be selling more properties over the next few years and would certainly use
‘forsalebyowner’ for them. Once again thank you for you service.
John Bradd - Cordeaux Heights, NSW
Deciding to sell our property privately was a big step for us. Paul and the team at Forsalebyowner.com.au made that decision so much easier by creating the pathway to the market place that is normally only given to Real Estate agents.
Paul responded to emails and our property advertisement changes to be made on the listed websites efficiently, leading to many queries, inspections and ultimately the sale of our property! Thank you Paul and forsalebyowner.com.au. I would encourage any budding property owners to sell through these guys!
Rami Houssami - Perth, WA
We’d like to thank Paul and his team for the great service that they offered to us. With their usual prompt and professional assistance we were able to sell our place in less than a month!
We never thought it’s that easy. Thank to forsalebyowner who made it happen. We would recommend their service for every buyer who doesn’t want to use an agent and of course if we are selling another property, we would use their service again!
Thank you Paul and the team for your assistance from the beginning of the journey until the very end!
Jason Borg - Fulham Gardens, SA
It’s a great product and service the guys at forsalebyowner.com.au offered us
Allowing us to advertise our property for sale on realestate.com.au without the need of a realestate agency gives you much more control and saved us paying a commission to an agent.
Tracy Liu - Belmore NSW
We had an exceptional experience with For Sale By Owner team! We got what we were promised on the website. The team are very quick at responding to any questions we had and you will always get a ‘live’ person on the other end of the line to answer your questions (which is reassuring).
We would highly recommend For Sale By Owner to anyone who wants to sell their own homes without an agent.
Ray Hunt - Cotswold Hills, QLD
To Paul and the team from For Sale by Owner, thank you so much for the professional and straight forward service you provided.
Nothing but praise for the prompt assisstance you provided in putting my property on the web. I had numerous enquiries about my property from the day the for sale sign went up. I can only recommend the services you provided and the thousands of dollars it saved me in commission had I used a realeastate agent.
I’d be happy to use For Sale by Owner again in the future.
Julie Herbert - Johnston, NT
We can highly recommend Forsalebyowner.com to anyone thinking of selling their property.
The service and information we received was quick, efficient and professional.
We found the whole experience simple and straight forward and we achieved a good result and would have no hesitation in using this system again.
John McCluskey - Bower, SA
Thanks for your help & advice. I have learned enough i think that when we sell our home in the future, I would use this method again.
I have felt very much in control of the process, rather than at the mercy of an agent, whose goals may be different to ours.
Bruce Youlden - Kilaben Bay, NSW
Have sold the house. Great result and great service. Quite easy and pain free.
Very impressed with efficiency and the professional nature of the service. So glad I discovered you.
Pauline and Greg McConnell - Banora Point, NSW
I could not speak more highly about the professional and satisfactory way that the For Sale By Owner website was in achieving a sale for our home. Not only did the property sell within 2 weeks we saved a lot of money we would have had to pay for real estate fees. We were not hassled by anyone and all potential buyers were directed to us through your email which protected our privacy.
I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending the For Sale By Owner website to anybody who is selling their property. Thank you and your Team from two very happy home owners.
Teena & Graeme - Morayfield, QLD
We just wanted to take this opportunity to Thank You for all your assistance and expert help with marketing the property for sale. The enquiries we received mainly came from realestate.com.au, which we understood was the best option for us to take and it was a very good investment for us in our situation.
Thanks for offering this to us. The option provided us the chance to save on real estate agency fees and also enabled us to manage it, we felt, more personally.
We felt the enquiries we got were genuine and overall serious buyers were looking at the property, and the sale was obtained in a very short period of time, which was exactly what we wanted.
We would not hesitate in recommending you to anyone we know. Again we would like to thank you and your team for your assistance. It was much appreciated.
Stuart Waterhouse - Mooney Mooney, NSW
Selling our property as an owner was exciting and rewarding especially knowing there was no agent (middle man) involved in the process of communications with any buyers. Some buyers actually mentioned how they prefered talking to the ‘owner’ as they got an honest answer straight away!
We sold on the 10th viewing and are very happy with the time ‘sale by owner team’ spent helping us through the process anytime day or night they were close at hand … in saying that it was quite easy to do! When the time comes we will definitely do the same again … Last but not least we are around $15000 better off!
Michael Wang - York, WA
