Homeowners choose to sell their properties all by themselves even if it means additional work
because they want to save money in real estate fees. Sales commissions normally average from
7% of the sale price of the home so by selling a property privately a homeowner can save
thousands of dollars. Moreover, a homeowner will have total control in showing the house as
well as in contract negotiations. As oppose to listing their homes with a real estate agent,
a homeowner handles the sale of his/her property and this process is commonly called FSBO,
or For Sale By Owner.
