Pros & Cons of selling FSBO (retail price)
Hello everyone. My name is Tom, and I'm an experienced buyer/seller in the Central Florida area. I have flipped several SFH's in the area and have several buy/hold rentals. I've purchased through wholesalers and real estate agents. I am planning to sell (at retail price) one of my SFH rentals later this year, But I've never sold a property without using a realtor. The market here is very hot and I'm considering going the FSBO route to save the 6%. Pro's - obviously you save 6%. Con's - I have heard that it can limit the number of people who are exposed to your property, since RE agents are not going to show clients your property. I respect the BP community and thought that I'd reach out and ask for your advice, ideas and resources hat have worked for you. And any cautions/lessons learned. Thanks in advance.
