There's a right way and a wrong way to market your home on Craigslist in Phoenix, AZ. Many local residents in the Surprise, AZ area are potential home sellers who have thought about selling their home without a Realtor by utilizing Craigslist and other "For Sale by Owner" websites. Craigslist offer's a great platform to market your home, however using Craigslist to replace your Arizona Realtor can in most cases be a hugh mistake.
Wow, this should get your attention!
Founder and former CEO of ForSalebyOwner.com, Colby Sambrotto listed his 2,000 square foot New York condominium on his own through online classified ads and the ForSalebyOwner website. After 6 months of the "Do it yourself" route, Sambrotto’s decision to hire a Real Estate Agent led to attracting multiple offers, closing for $150,000 over the original asking price. The Wall Street Journal reports the listing sold for $2.15 million.
Like I said before, Craigslist is perfect to market homes to a vast amount of home buyers. There's nothing wrong listing your home's address, short description and price to pump up the interest. I do it all the time as a Realtor to attract buyers to my websitemysurpriserealestate.com. I utilize Craigslist to attract attention to the home and it's unique features. Make sure to include all the basic information that potential buyers want to know, such as the home's square footage, location and price. Include as many additional positive features as you wish.
Remember This When Considering to Sell Your Home Without a Realtor:
1) 95% of people who attempt to sell their home without a Realtor end up eventually hire aReal Estate Agent after dealing with all the headaches.
2) REALTORS attract more buyers because of the way the MLS system is set up. BUYERS get free representation/ help to purchase a home. Meaning all the serious buyers are going through REALTORS. These REALTORS are getting paid from the listing REALTOR as an incentive to bring them buyers.
3) Finally, selling your home in Phoenix, AZ, or anywhere for that matter, can leave you and your family open to all sorts of criminal activity.
