ForSaleByOwner.com is the nation’s leading “by owner” real estate website. Since 1999, ForSaleByOwner.com has saved home sellers more than 1 billion dollars by coaching and equipping them with information, tools and services that enable them to buy and sell houses directly. By selling directly, homeowners can control costs and fees, recouping their home equity. Sellers can list their homes using a wide range of advertising, pricing, and marketing tools through ForSaleByOwner. A homeowner selling a $300,000 home through a real estate agent would be charged a 6% commission and pay approximately $18,000, plus additional fees.
