FSBO sellers can save a bundle doing it themselves

Lorraine Brownrigg says she has helped homeowners sell more than 3,000 properties in and around Ottawa in the past three years. It’s anyone’s guess how much she has saved them in real estate commissions, but it’s probably many millions of dollars.

Lorraine Brownrigg knows what thousands of FSBO sellers and home owners are learning every day. Selling your house yourself has some pros and cons, but it’s mostly pros. You get to save yourself thousands of dollars in real estate commissions and you are in control of the process every step of the way.

While there are pros and cons to doing it yourself, if you can manage to get on the MLS, that’s even better. IHS Realty offers FSBO sellers the opportunity to get on the MLS, which is not possible without going through a broker first, for a low flat fee.
