For Sale By Owner - I am trying to sell my house. After trying “for sale by owner” for four months and a Realtor™ for six months, I am once again trying to sell it myself. Iggys House Realty is a new company created by early innovators in online stock trading. Similar to E*trade introducing online consumer trading nearly a decade ago, the idea is to cut out the middle man, provide the consumer the tools of the trade, and compete for customers by offering lower commissions. Iggys House provides a free listing on Realtor.com (links to my house on Realtor.com) in an attempt to earn the good will of sellers who will choose them as their buyers’ agent when it is time to buy again. And as your buyers’ agent, they claim they’ll refund 75% of their commission. If Iggys House has a weakness for sellers, it is providing the information that informs pricing decisions. For comparable home sales, market trends, and sales history information Zillow is the best site I have found.
I heard you… YouTube… - Natalie at CommunityChannel is hilarious. Yes, I am sure. If that first video didn’t convince you, try this one. Or this one.
