For Sale by Owner vs. Private Land Investors

Home owners have two ways to sell their property that doesn't involve paying out huge commission to a real estate agent. They have the option to choose the FSBO route or sell the property to a private land investor. If you are one of those who plan to sell your home, you might want to take a look at the details below before you decide which way to go.
FSBO or For Sale by Owner is when you, the seller, decide to market the property without the help of a real estate agent. In FSBO, you will take care of all the processes involve in selling the property starting from putting it in the market up to closing the deal. Putting the property up in the market is the first step and if you are lucky prospects will reach out to you to check out the property. Before you even put your home up for sale, you need to make sure that it is going to be available for showing all the time. Buyers who will find your property inaccessible in their convenient time will more likely skip your home and move on to the next. They may come back at a different time or you may have a different buyer but then you may have already lost a chance.
In showing your home to prospects, try not to be in their way. Prospects may not like the idea of somebody who is watching their every move as they go from room to room. Prepare to answer any questions they might have but do not be overly proactive in offering the information. Make your house presentable if you know someone is coming. Remove clutters and unnecessary furniture or décor. Do not leave empty glasses on the tables and neatly stack newspapers or magazines. You can freshen up your home by putting up fresh flowers or natural scents. Heat water with a drop of vanilla or slices of lemon and let the steam spread out. Do not use strong air fragrances as prospects might find those offensive. If you own a pet, include that information in the listing to warn prospects. If they decide to visit your home, keep your pet from running around or have someone walk your pet out for the time being.
Alternatively, you can sell your home to a private land investor. With private land investors, there’s no need for multiple showings, no property listings, not even cleaning your home if you don’t have the luxury of time. It will be quick and easy sale. So, if you need cash right away, you might want to sell your home to a private land investor. Contact Lucas Properties now and get help immediately.
