Looking for your personal stories on the FSBO home buying experience.
Will be hiring some sort of professional advise and want to know the good, the bad and the ugly.
I'm the seller considering this option. Lots of questions below. Please share if the shoe fits and ignore the rest.
Thanks in advance.
Mortgage Broker vs. Real Estate Attorney
- Are they one in the same?
- Cost comparison: Broker vs. RE attorney?
- How to spot a qualified broker? Qualified attorney? (to avoid this: http://www.justice.gov/usao/vae/news/2015/02/20150227zhao.html)
Cost Save vs Gotchas
- Wish I would have known before I...
- Length of time to sell - How long is too long and will this impact the overall listing value?
- Online marketing - Where do people go to find FSBO listings?
Disclosures
- The seller of my current house did not disclose everything I thought was legally required - and there were RE agents on both sides.
- Seems like a grey area. Advise?
