Seller Testimonials
Here's What our Happy Sellers Have to Say!
"Our condo sold within 3 days of listing (FSBO + MLS option). Our property was in a good location, on a subway/go line. We were pleasantly surprised, and overall really happy with the service provided by FSBO team. You guys rock."
"It has been an interesting journey selling myself with FSBO, this is my second time. Lessons learnt: put on MLS sooner for more traffic, definitely made a difference. Don't allow realtors to disrespect you. If they don't want to work through the process with you, make sure that they know the seller has rights as well. Lastly if conditions aren't met on date agreed, be wary. I foolishly allowed extensions when buyer and realtor clearly were stringing me along. I saved close to 10k in commission and learnt how little realtors actually do."
"FSBO has everything you need to get your marketing out there quickly to take complete control of selling. Every step of 'how to' explained and easy to use. I would recommend it."
"The FSBO website and process was excellent - user friendly and very effective. Our house sold very quickly!"
"We had a great experience with selling our house with FSBO. Rob and stafff have been great throughout this whole procedure! We would highly recommend selling your house through FSBO!! We saved sooo much money! Thanks guys!!"
"Took about a bit more than a month and lots of hard work, but it paid off! That's not a small thing in this market."
"Thank you For Sale By Owner! My husband and I sold our place in exactly two weeks using the full MLS package. This was much cheaper and reliable than other sites. Maximum exposure through MLS and staff was excellent in making amendments in a timely manner for us. I will definitely use this service again and would highly recommend!"
"Saved thousands listing with FSBO!"
"The listing process was easier than we thought and we were very impressed with the website and the professional signs we ordered. As we are building a new home it was nice to save some money on realtor fees which we can use on landscaping etc. We would definitely recommend FSBO to friends and family."
"This website was central to successfully selling our home. We had lots of potential buyers who saw it on the website and the MLS website; having it listed on both sites broadened the exposure to the market. Our property was on the market within 24 hours of providing the information to FSBO. We had an acceptable offer within 6 weeks of listing the home! Homes in our price range are normally on the market for much longer than that, as there are fewer qualified buyers.
We put our MLS# that we received from forsalebyowner.ca, on the For Sale signs, and that allowed folks who found out our home was for sale when they saw the signage, to view details with ease. We are in a desirable neighbourhood, so there are often buyers who drive through, rather than search the MLS.
Signage is very reasonably priced and looks professional. Signage is super important to reaching buyers. I had many viewers who saw the sign, viewed our home, and went to the website after I directed them to it. Not everyone is on a computer!
I saved about $15,000 using this service and in the end, it was well worth the work to get it listed and show it. We offered a finders fee to agents or anyone who brought us a buyer. That meant we had agents who had clients who didn't want to buy privately, again expanding the market for our home. Unfortunately, we also had buyers who dragged their agent to look at our home; remember that not all agents want to work with a private seller. We were equally as welcoming to all agents, irrespective of their behaviour, as it's their client who is buying the home, not the agent. We had one agent who had never worked with a private seller before, and he brought three different clients to view it, liked the property and realized that working with a private seller was not so bad.
I would use forsalebyowner.ca again and would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to sell there own home. Outstanding service and exceptional value!"
"Our experience selling our home on FSBO was smooth and quick, with better results than we anticipated. Our house was sold in less than a month and we enjoyed getting to know our buyers, as opposed to communicating through a realtor. Our FSBO broker was ready to answer any questions (day or night!) and walk us through the paperwork for listing on MLS. Now that we know how it's done, we highly recommend listing through FSBO."
"Working with the FSBO team was a great experience for us and it worked well. We are very happy that our home sold in under a month, using the lawn sign, the FSBO site, house flyers, and listing on MLS. Staff was very helpful with any questions we had and responded very quickly. We highly recommend FSBO!"
"Thank you for the help and support. You helped us to have the courage to do it. Great helps speedy and supportive."
"This process was quite simple and responses to make the changes quick. I will highly recommend this company."
"In six weeks being listed on other sites, we received only 4 telephone inquires and no showings. Frustrated, we decided to give For Sale By Owner with the MLS listing option a try. We started getting calls immediately. First showing within four days of listing with a solid offer. Sold in under two weeks. I highly recommend the For Sale by Owner team."
"This is a good alternative to using a realtor, saved thousands and the support from FSBO was top notch."
"Great service from this brokerage. Very happy with my decision to use them. The tools and support provided surpassed my expectations. Thank you so much Chris!!!"
"Wonderfully designed website... easy to change information and photos instantly."
"Using FSBO was so easy. The set up is completely easy to follow and everything is so organized. Any questions that we had were answered by a quick phone call. We would recommend it to anyone who wants to save on the sales commission. We saved $11,125.00."
"The listing process online, and the support we received were excellent. Their web site is well designed and their easy step by step instructions make it a snap to list your property. They allow up to 40 photos, and the ability to add captions and interface with social media is great marketing for your property. Save $$ in commission and list your property on this site."
