Selling home for the first time in Port Saint Lucie, FL

[Sabine Franklin]

Hello,

I am new to the forum and have a question about homeowners selling directly to buyers. I am assisting a relative with selling her second home, we listed on Ebay and I posted on social media sites. Has anyone any experience with selling a home without a real estate agent and can share their (good and bad) experiences?

I am an investor with my RE license. Also, I am in PSL.

If you want to handle the listing yourself and do not want any RE Agent representation, contact a local RE Attorney (I have a great RE Atty in Stuart if you need one)who can draft up and assist with any contracts and escrow/title. The good, not listing commissions on the seller side, but if you want agents to bring a buyer to your listing, you may want to consider a buyer's agent fee.

There are several good reasons to help with this process...what you will learn will be immeasurable and then there's the BAD side...the things that could go wrong in any transaction and immense...

I am, however, interested personally on the investment side. Is this an investment worthy house or are you hoping to get above market on it? If the latter, and you want to make the highest $$ then work with a realtor. If it is an investment type house, please DM me with the details. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

Good sites to list the property since you are not currently on the MLS:

Zillow.com

Realtor.com

Reddit.com

Craigslist.org

Facebook Marketplace

Best of luck!! :)
