This book shows how to enjoy greater profits by selling your home without a broker. If an average real estate broker can sell your house, why can't you? The process actually isn't as complex as real estate professionals would like you to believe. "For Sale by Owner" breaks down the home-selling procedure into simple steps that anyone can complete. "For Sale By Owner" provides everything you need to sell your home at maximum profit in minimum time.Steve Berges has spent 25 years making a lucrative living doing just that, and here he shares the secrets of his real estate success, such as: researching the market and accurately valuing properties; preparing homes to attract the highest bidder; marketing and advertising, from classified ads to the Internet; selecting the best appraiser and title company; developing sharp negotiation techniques; and, closing the deal - legally and profitably. The only time to let a real estate broker sell your home is when you don't know how to do it yourself. This comprehensive but simple-to-understand guide erases that problem, so you can enjoy the entire value of your property.
