What are some websites to advertise real estate as For Sale By Owner? The cheaper, the better! Thank you for all the help you can give me...in up-north, Michigan! Thanks! I guess the biggest fear in using a realtor is the market. Many houses in the area are selling for something like $20,000 less than their asking price. If such a hit is taken, it would not be affordable to pay a realtor at all. The MLS listing idea is great! What exact websites would we go to, to go about doing that?

Are there any advantages/disadvantages to buying a home that is for sale by owner or by a real estate group? My husband and I are first time home buyers and are currently looking at buying a home.

Wondering what the difference is between buying a home that is for sale by owner and a home that is for sale by a real estate company.
Foreclosed homes & For Sale by Owner homes - Real Estate Agents Welcome? My husband and I have had our eye on a house that is a foreclosed home. This house is being represented by several local real estate companies. My husband and I went to the bank to inquire about the procedures that need to be done to get a loan. I am a student (college) and he works. He has been with his job for a little over a year and has all the check stubs to prove it. The bank said that until I get a job, it would be impossible for them to loan anything to me but they did consider him. They ran his credit and found an outstanding hospital bill he was unaware that still existed (we plan to make payments). Therefore, they told us that they could not help us unless we had someone that could get the loan and purchase the house in their name. Meanwhile, the person who purchases the house (with the bank loan) could be selling it to us and after a year of responsible verifiable payments (receipts) that we could have the house signed over to us through the bank. Since this house is foreclosed, is there any other way to get this house, such as making payments to the bank that owns this house? As of right now, we have no idea which bank owns this house however, it is not the bank that we use. If we can not do anything to get this home, we are also interested in looking for a house that is “for sale by owner”. What kind of documentation would we need for someone to consider selling their home to us? Are there any certain laws about particular documentation that a seller would have to abide by? We live in Alabama and are first time home buyers.
Is it illegal, in TX, to write a real estate sale contract if you are not a licensed agent or owner? Is it legal, in Texas, for a person who is not a real estate agent or the owner to write a contract for the sale or lease of real property, building, home, etc. I am aware of a person who is neither owner or a licensed real estate agent who has prepared a lease agreement and the wording in the contract has caused the Leasee loss of money and many problems. There is one requirement to be fulfilled by the Lessor that hasn't been fulfilled. Unfortunately, there is not a time factor for this requirement to be completed but from other wording in the contract it could be considered a "contract by assumption". This is a matter that is curcial for a friend and I would GREATLY appreciate and answer as soon as possible. Thank you, jam2735@yahoo.com

We are buyers with a real estate agent helping us, but found a house for sale by owner, how do we move forward? Our real estate agent is fantastic. She has shown us three or four houses over the last three or four months and is patiently working with us at our speed. We think it would be good to be connected with her during the closing, as this is a first time purchase for us and she knows our area really well and is well connected to others in the real estate community, like good home inspectors for the older homes in our community. We do not have any signed contract with her, just some emails back and forth talking about what we are looking for. Soooo, we are looking at a house for sale by owner and if we decide to move forward we are not sure what the protocol would be regarding the agent. Do we just tell the agent that we no longer need help? Or do we pay the agent to represent us at closing? We don't have much money beyond our down payment so this could present a complication for us financially. Do we get a real estate attorney to help us finish? If so, should we get a gift card for our agent and express our appreciation for taking us to see a few houses? Thanks! Thanks for the answers so far, we do not have a written contract, or even a strong verbal agreement with the agent, just an understanding that she knows what we are looking for and sends us daily emails if there is something new on the market. She has only shown us a few houses. We are fairly certain that the seller will not engage a realtor, and we know that others are looking at this property, we'd really like to have it and are trying to be careful to not lose it. Our agent is awesome, based on your feedback I called her and asked how we could move forward if we found a house for sale by owner and she said that she would support us however we like as long as we could make it make sense with the seller. It will work out just fine. Thanks!!
Will my real estate agent still get paid if I found a house for sale by owner that I end up purchasing? We have a real estate agent that has been great, always helpful, willing to go out of his way to help us out. He has shown us multiple houses at whatever time is convenient to us. He has been great and we would recommend him to anyone. However we found a house for sale by owner on our own through craigslist. We want to make an offer on this house, will the real estate agent that has helped us out get paid at all for this? We would feel bad if he got nothing after all the work he has done helping us out.

decreasing taxed real estate sale gain by decreasing basis? What is basis? What is it in terms of a piece of real estate? I know home improvements can decrease basis, but is realtor fees and closing costs also used to decrease basis? (I'm in an owner occupied residential home, sold prior to 2 year-no capitol gains timeframe) I bought a property for 385K sold for 415K. I paid 30K for realtor fees.

How do you find the owners of a house that is for sale by a real estate agent...? ... without going through the realtor? There is a house which has been for sale for a couple of years. I want to ask the owners if they would consider renting it out for a year. I tried going through the real estate agent, but he never got back to me.

The house is not occupied at the moment. The owners moved out of town a long time ago.

buying a for sale by owner house - offer letter? I found a for fsbo house to buy and am planning to use a real estate attorney to review or to draw up a contract. My question is about the offer letter. I have financing, and know that title and inspection are the other things I need to worry about after that. The sellers are using a standard offer letter form that they got from office max or whatever, so not much detail. I have heard that you need a real estate attny to look over the purchase and sale agreement but what about the offer? I don't want to leave something giant out of there and then end up regretting it later. Can anyone tell me if there are specific things that I should put in there in addition to the basics that I mentioned above? My listing agent mentioned having stipulations on earnest money, what happens if a timeline is not met for inspection or whatever, etc. I am wondering if there is anything else that I need to worry about...thank you!

Where can i find "nothing down" real estate deals in london? In the London area i am looking for investment real estate for sale by investors, or landlords not by owner-occupiers.

How can I list my "For Sale by Owner" property on the MLS? I would like to sell my home myself in a fast-moving neighborhood. But really don't want to pay a real estate agent. Is there a way I can put it on the local MLS for a fee? I'm sure it will sell quickly and I may consider giving the buying agent a commission. But due to the low value of the home, I doubt a listing agent will represent it well or lead buyers to it. I don't want to pay him/her a commission he/she doesn't deserve. I know a listing agent can be beneficial. The problem is there aren't any good ones in my area. I don't need assistance in marketing my property. Most houses for sale like mine aren't featured in the local publications. Agents focus on the expensive houses. Often I see selling agents encourage the sellers to take a low ball offer. I know what my house is worth and what the ones in the area are selling for. I know what I will accept for the house. I know what to disclose about the house as well. Like I said houses in my neighborhood move quickly. The FSBOs go just as fast as the ones listed. Thanks to everyone for their input.

We've been preapproved for a mortgage and found a home for sale by owner, if we choose to put in an offer, our? lender requires that we submit our offer to our real estate lawyer and not submit a good faith deposit right off the bat. The banks are "tight" when dealing with these types of transactions and our broker wants to protect us from losing our money since theirs no realtor involved. How do we work this? Is there a way to negotiate with the seller so they know we are serious (pre approved) however have to follow the lenders rules to receive our mortgage? Any ideas on how to put this concern on the table?

Does anyone know anything about For Sale By Owner home buying in Nebraska? I'm looking to buy my first home from a friend of mine from my church. It's a little house, VERY cheap. He's only asking just over what he put into the house (he remodeled everything, new insulation, drywall etc.). He has it posted as for sale by owner and also through a real estate agent but would rather do it as a for sale by owner because of all the fees for a Realtor. I was wondering if anyone knew some about the process so everything could be legal and we won't have to go through a mess a year down the road if everything isn't taken care of. The real estate agent did offer to help us with all the paper work for basically nothing, which is fantastic but I would still appreciate anyone's advice on other things we'll need to take care of. Inspections have all been done, the appraisal has already been done...now it's the money we have to deal with. Thanks everyone! And yes, I know it would be smarter to go through the real estate agent but my friend would have to pay all the fees and I would like to avoid it if at all possible.

Real Estate Short Sale - should owner sign a Land Trust and Limited Power of Attorney? A friend and her ex-husband are on a mortgage together for home that that the husband is trying to do a short sale on to prevent foreclosure. My friend, the wife, was told that she had to go to a Realtor's office and sign some papers so a short sale package could be prepared (on a Saturday). At the Realtor's office she was told to sign a Florida Land Trust and a Limited Power of Attorney so the Realtor or whoever could have control of the property and wouldn't need to bother and call her and also called them Internal Documents and CYA. The office has a sign out front saying "Stop Foreclosure Now". I am concerned that this may be a foreclosure rescue scam. I told her to talk to an attorney before signing any documents, especially the Land Trust. I am afraid she will sign away the house and then still be held responsible for the mortgage. Ex-husband already signed the documents. Is the Land Trust and Limited Power of Attorney routine documents needed for a short sale package to be sent to the lender and/or routine "internal documents" to CYA the Realtor or whoever is really doing this deal? Why the "Limited Power of Attorney" when my friend and the ex-husband still lives in the same city where the house is located? Thank you for all your help!!!

Does it seem like Foreclosed Homes are not in the forefront promoted by the Real Estate Industry? The county I live in has over 6,000 foreclosed homes, yet they seem to try to fetch within 10% of homes for sales by owners (non-distress) and new home communities. Most foreclosed homes I've seen were torn up, ignored, out of date, and simply set aside and not promoted by agents who showed us properties. Is this a trend? Attitude being conveyed to members of the RE Industry? Banks not pressured for cleaning their books (or disinterested in having the homes in good repair & not truly discounting the Buyer because of the inconvenience?) What is your spin on this? Foreclosed homes use to be *desired* by Investors & general Home Buyers alike... 100807 3:40

MO real estate agent question: How much can I help my mom with property not acting as an agent? I am a licensed real estate agent that is still active in the state of Missouri, but not currently working in real estate. My license is being held by a broker, but I am not actively working at the moment. My mom wants to sell some property that she has which the houses on them are in terrible shape. She is not expecting a huge return on the property and is just planning on selling without use of a real estate agent. How much help am I legally allowed to give her if I am no expecting a commission at all? Can I answer questions about the process and the property to potential buyers? We just want her to advertise for sale by owner. The properties are in terrible condition and she is pretty sure a real estate agent would not want to sell it as is. She is not expecting huge returns, she just wants rid of the property. So no pushing for her to work with a real estate agent (even me, since it would be too much trouble for me to get back into the game since I am going back to school). I would appreciate it if people who actually knew the laws and were not just guessing would answer. I would like serious answers only please. I have no problem disclosing I am an agent actually. Would that be enough as long s I did not get invovled in legal issues and only answered questions? I really cannot talk to my broker about it and that is a long story. Nothing illegal, it is just that I really do not work for him, he is literally just holding my license for me since my previous broker could not just hold it and not make me pay fees.

Real estate licensed, sell my own house, but selling as owner. Not using brokers name in advertising.? I want to sell my own home. I have a california real estate salesperson license. I will not sell the home using any assistance from my broker. I will not put up any advertising with the broker's name on it. I will simply wear a different hat , which is that of an owner selling my own home. I don't see that the broker will be entitled to a transaction fee / cut. My broker charges a flat transaction fee on any listings that sell. Since I will not be signing a listing agreement, the broker should not get a transaction fee / cut. Otherwise having a license is like getting taxed unfairly by your broker when you sell your own property. Since I pay a subscription to the MLS service.. I will list in the MLS and disclose that this an agent owned property and that it is for sale by owner. Anybody see a problem occuring? My broker said he must charge me the $1,000 transaction fee. "No True." I told him because i, the owner, would not be signing a listing agreement. makes sense? I know i have to disclose that I am an agent .. I made that statement in my question... You are saying if it is in the MLS it is listed... Really... how is that?... there is no listing agreement with myself to sell my own property. Since I subscribe to the MLS, all i have to do is log in and put it in the MLS... The MLS does not ask me to fax them a copy of the listing agreement. Also, there are many services that will put your house in the MLS for a fee. In those case the owner is not signing any listing agreement with an agent or broker but yet they are able to have their home in the MLS. So then why should an agent be unfairly taxed by a broker when they want to simply sell their own home with their own marketing etc. without any assistance, signage or any help of a broker. Should apply the same to agent / owners. Should they be trapped to pay a broker just because they have a r.e. license?

How can I find the last sale price of a piece of real estate? I am in the process of trying to buy a house, but the owner refuses to bring the house up to code, claiming they are losing money on the low price they agreed to sell it to me already.
