Need Advice On Selling Home Off Market
Hello everyone, I currently live in a SFH in the Chicagoland Suburbs that I gut-rehabbed in April of 2020. As you probably know, inventory is so low here that houses are getting several offers within hours of being listed; especially at the price point of my current home ($300k). With that said, it would be easy to sell my house by owner, but I'm looking for ways to reach buyers directly to avoid paying any fees. Generally I wouldn't mind paying a buyers fee to avoid the hassle, but every penny counts right now.
As of today I have reached out to all mortgage brokers I know to see if they have clients that are interested, and have reached out to friends and family to see if they know someone in the market. I'm also considering Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, Zillow, and I know there's a ton of FSBO websites, but I figured on there I would be receiving a lot of inquiries from realtors.
Any advice is appreciated. Thank you.
