Comments on: E-commerce = in-E-fficiency II (Real Estate) http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/philg/2004/03/19/e-commerce-in-e-fficiency-ii-real-estate/ A posting every day; an interesting idea every three months... Wed, 02 Dec 2009 02:49:42 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: FSBO Kyle http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/philg/2004/03/19/e-commerce-in-e-fficiency-ii-real-estate/comment-page-1/#comment-68843 FSBO Kyle Fri, 18 Jan 2008 20:57:04 +0000 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/philgtest/2004/03/19/e-commerce-in-e-fficiency-ii-real-e#comment-68843 I support both FSBO and the help-u-sell type businesses (discount models). It is not difficult to sell a property "by owner", especially given the assistance of a closing company. Most Realtors list your home in the local MLS. Now that homeowners can purchase MLS listings for an upfront flat-fee, individuals can utilize the Realtors most powerful selling tool for a small fraction of the cost. I do not see myself using a Realtor anytime soon given the alternatives. I support both FSBO and the help-u-sell type businesses (discount models).

If you are agent that sells more than ave. is a pain to fill out.

I haven't ever thought of it that way before. I want someone who benefits when I benefit. Not someone who gets paid either way. I checked out the site you posted. I especially liked the credit information & repair page. Abe

Does that attorney take you out to show you homes? Does he let you know the instant a great deal comes on the market? NO & NO He gets paid by the hour... and so you get an HOUR. Agents on the other hand, get paid only if your transaction is successful... and you get to determine what is successful. Hire a professional. I know someone who just did, and made 17,000 more than the discount broker told her to list and sell for.
