I have a few FSBO Questions

1. How does a FSBO handle an open house?

2. Besides the FSBO website, are there any other sites that can help educate me and provide me with needed documents?

3. Can a FSBO place their house on MLS?

I have sold several houses as a FSBO. I used to be licensed. It is not easy and you can get into big trouble so be careful. Having said that, #2 - there are sites run by Brokers #3 - that will get you on MLS for a small fee.

#1 - I only let licensed agents show the house without me there, use a lockbox. If a private party w/o an agent wants to see it, I have to meet them. But that is the big prize....no agents involved at all.

And yes, you'll have to pay a buyers agent 2.5% or more. What, are you going to only show the house to buyers with no agent? ROTFLMAO.....
