You can! Without a real estate agent? Sure. And you can save thousands and thousands of dollars if you do. Even when you hire a real estate agent, you can still save thousands by doing most of the work yourself. Yes, there are number of procedures to follow and rules to learn, but if you're a "do-it-yourself" person, you won't find selling your own house very difficult.
Sure, you'll do much better if you understand what's ahead and follow a logical plan. That's where Miranda comes in to help you understand the process. All major steps for “For Sale By Owner (aka. FSBO) in New Jersey are as follows:
1. Deciding when to sell
2. Satisfy all legal and federal, New Jersey, and local tax requirements
3. Pricing your house correctly
4. Advertising the sale
5. Preparing house for sale
6. Writing all required disclosures
7. Negotiating and making offers/counteroffers
8. Signing a legally valid New Jersey sales contract
9. Completing the escrow process to transfer title of the house and sales proceeds
10. Juggling the sale of one house and the purchase of another
11. Evaluating creative financing options such as seller financing, lease option, or similar agreements.
If you're detail oriented person, you should be able to handle everything on your own during the sales process.
However, you may need or want a real estate agent's help for some tasks such as advertising your house on New Jersey Multiple Listing Service (MLS), reviewing the contract paperwork or helping you through the escrow process. Fortunately, you are not limited to hiring an agent at full commission. You can hire an agent by hour or negotiate a lower commission for limited services.
