Here's Why Sellers & Buyers Trust ForSaleByOwner.ca
"Nice and easy way to list the property. Thanks for the help with the listing."
"It was a very easy process to get our signs and get ready to sell our house. We sold off the sign. They are very noticeable and colourful and attract attention. The people involved with For Sale By Owner are very good, they walk you through everything, and are very patient with you. If you run into any trouble you just phone them and they will help you. The MLS part of the listing was very good..." (click to read full testimonial)
"This site was great! I put my condo on MLS and got an offer the next day."
"The FSBO staff were very helpful with all the paperwork. They made sure we felt confident selling our own home. Most of our listing inquiries came from the FSBO website. I would definitely list another property with them."
"We are absolutely ecstatic about the private sale of our home! NO agent involved so saved soooo much money. FSBO was extremely helpful - always took time to explain the website and forms required. It WAS still work to get the house sold - I respect what realtors go through to get a house sold but I just could not justify the commission; had to try it on our own. We had two open houses and..."

"Easy peasy lemon squeezy. This is the second home that we have sold using FSBO. It really is not that difficult, and you are in charge throughout the whole process"
"FSBO worked as efficiently or even more efficiently than going through a realtor. And sold our place for asking price with no realtor fees - big savings. Biggest plus for using FSBO is being able to put a lot more information in the listing as compared to the much more restrictive Realtor.ca/MLS listing - more pictures and verbiage on important points and features of the property. Also..." (click to read full testimonial)
"Wow, we loved For Sale By Owner. We listed our 3 season Haliburton cottage early in October hoping to sell by the summer. And sell it did. I learned so much and enjoyed the process and so did the potential buyers. We got many real estate agents showing our cottage, too! In the end, the buyer contacted us directly, so we saved a good $23,000 on fees. For Sale By Owner is an excellent service...." (click to read full testimonial)
"I used FSBO after quite a bit of research and they did not disappoint. The market was changing quickly when I listed and they provided me with the data that I needed to make informed decisions on market value etc. Always prompt to reply!"
"We had an excellent experience with FSBO. When we had questions, there was someone right there to help us. It is remarkably easy to sell your own house and save a whole bunch of money thanks to the help of FSBO. We highly recommend to all we know."
"I absolutely love FSBO! This is the second time we have sold our home with you. Works great and saves us money!"
"Using FSBO has been an awesome experience.... I have already recommended to friends and family."

Social Media Sharing Tools
We provide social media sharing tools that easily let you share your own listing across popular social media sites, or for searchers to share their findings with others.
Spreading the word has never been more simple!
Complete & Relevant Listing Data
Our Base FSBO Package gives you the ability to fill out a variety of data fields to ensure a complete and accurate listing. These fields include the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, lot size, parking, year built, room dimensions, fire place, air conditioning, hot tub, pool, and much more.
All of this additional information helps your property be represented in a professional manner.
Automatic Google Indexing
Every day, we automatically submit all of our listings to Google using an XML sitemap system specifically designed for search engines. These sitemaps are accessible to all search engines, meaning that others are easily able to crawl our listings, too.
All of our listings are submitted and indexed by most major search engines, giving our customers more exposure on Google and other popular search engines.
SPAM Prevention System
Using a combination of formulas, we have a custom built spam prevention system in place that filters out the majority of junk and scam attacks from getting through to you. When someone sends an email to you through your listing's contact form, we strive to detect and block messages that do not appear to be legitimate, increasing your online safety. It also saves you from the inconvenience of having to sort through several fraudulent or spammy messages.
However, it's still important to use common sense and to ensure that all prospective buyers view your property in person before any agreements are made.
Private Website Linking
Do you already have your own website to help promote your listing?
At For Sale By Owner Inc., we encourage our customers to list their property on multiple websites to further increase their exposure. Simply paste in the URL into the "Private Website Link" field when you add or edit your listing, and a personalized button will appear on your listing that goes to the external link.
Virtual Tour Linking & Embedding
Did you get a professional virtual tour done of your property? If so, add the link to your listing and a virtual tour button will appear for users to click on in order to view it. Compatible virtual tours such as Matterport and iGUIDE® can even be embedded directly into your listing page's photo gallery.
This allows potential buyers to get an even better impression of your property and is therefore a highly valuable selling tool.
Video Linking & Embedding
Your listing can be seen and heard better with a link to a video walkthrough showcasing your property. Compatible videos such as YouTube can even be embedded directly into your listing page's photo gallery for easier viewing.
Online Support & Tips for Success
We have various guides available for free on our website to help you make the most out of your selling experience.
Topics include preparing yourself and the property for sale, property inspections, using social media to promote your listing, showing your home, documentation, working with buyer's agents, and much more.

MLS® System Listing
Be seen on Canada's largest real estate website by getting a posting of your property on REALTOR.ca.
All British Columbia REALTOR.ca mere postings are loaded to the local real estate board that is closest to the property's physical location. For more details, please click on the "MLS® System Listing on Your Local Board" section of this page.
Did you know that the REALTOR.ca and MLS.ca websites are actually the same website? If you type the address MLS.ca into a web browser, your browser will redirect you to REALTOR.ca. Many people don't know this, so we've taken a moment to explain it to make things more clear to our sellers.
With a mere listing on REALTOR.ca, your property will receive maximum exposure to the most serious buyers and real estate agents, with the flexibility of still being able to sell privately without commission.
$49 FSBO-Only, 7 Day Listing Option
Think your house is going to sell fast? This option is ideal for those sellers and for those who are looking to test the market.
If you want to see what kind of response your listing will get on our network without committing to our FSBO-Only (No Time Limit) package for $250, or our MLS® System Combo (No Time Limit) package for $549, you can now purchase a 7-day listing period for $49 to feel out the real estate market in your area.
You still get all of the services included in our unlimited-duration flat fee $250 FSBO-only package, the only difference is that the $49 listing expires in 7 days. Don't worry, you can extend the 7-day listing for another 7 days for $49, anytime as well.
So, if you want to test the market for 7 days this week, then pause the listing for a few weeks, and then try again a few weeks from now, you can easily do that without losing any of your listing data in our system. Each seller can reactivate their listing at $49 for an additional 7 days anytime once it is in our listing management system and in our syndication network.
You can switch to the $250 FSBO-Only package or the unlimited-time $549 MLS® System Combo package (REALTOR.ca) from your FSBO account page ANYTIME!
Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions about this pricing option anytime at 1-800-831-3726 ext 101.

MLS® System Listing on Your Local Board
We load your MLS® System listing to your local real estate board!
Our brokerage members belong to multiple local real estate boards throughout Canada.
This allows us to offer a premium service on our REALTOR.ca listings, because each listing is actually loaded to the local real estate board that is closest to the property's physical location.
This means that your REALTOR.ca listing will be fully visible to the local real estate agents in your area, and to the general public, giving your listing FULL exposure on the MLS® System & REALTOR.ca.
You can learn more about local boards on our "What is a Local Board?" page.
If you would like clarification about local boards, please call us anytime on our toll-free number at 1-800-831-3726 ext. 101.
Auto-Forwarding of REALTOR.ca Inquiries
Since your property will be publicly posted on the REALTOR.ca website under our listing brokerage, several interested parties will inquire right on REALTOR.ca as opposed to your listing here on ForSaleByOwner.ca.
Since all MLS® System postings are only allowed to have the brokerage's contact information on it, we have created a customized solution that automatically catches these inquiries and then immediately forwards them to you so you don't miss a thing!
The REALTOR.ca listing layout varies per province and real estate board, but generally there are 2 inquiry buttons to request more information or to book a showing, and both will auto-forward to you.
