🚫 Why FSBO Sounds Good… But Usually Isn’t

🔻 Lower Sale Prices
FSBO homes consistently sell for less than those listed by an agent.

🔻 Weak Marketing
No professional photos, limited exposure, fewer buyers = fewer offers.

🔻 Legal Landmines
One mistake in disclosures or contracts can cost thousands.

🔻 Negotiation Disadvantages
Buyers’ agents negotiate aggressively — and often avoid FSBOs altogether.

🔻 Time Drain
Showings, paperwork, screening buyers…
FSBO becomes a second job — with a smaller paycheck.
