FSBO Assist

Overview
The FSBO-Assist plan is best for home sellers considering a For-Sale-By-Owner solution. VerraTerra will publish your listing in the NWMLS and provide you with the materials necessary to have your listing look as professional as a sellSmart! or competitor’s traditional listing. Afterwards, the seller is responsible for further marketing, negotiating offers and managing the entire closing process. Sellers choosing this plan should have thorough knowledge of real estate contracts, be comfortable handling negotiations, conducting market research for pricing, and be willing and able to successfully deal with a wide range of buyers and their agents. We do not recommend the FSBO-Assist Listing Plan for people who have never sold a home before.

Costs
$1500 – due when the listing goes live on the market.
Note: These costs are for the listing agent only. Seller must determine some compensation amount for the buyer’s agent.
