These are the top websites that you can use when you want to sell your property online versus the going the traditional route. There are many other websites that can help you sell a house that aren’t listed here. Before using any website that is not on this list, there are several things that you should consider. You should check how many people visit the website that you are planning to use every month. The higher the traffic that a given website receives, the higher and the likelihood that you will be able to sell a home within a short time.
When we buy houses on our website, we find that we are interested in perusing only a certain percentage of homes that owners are trying to sell us. Then out of that small percentage of sellers that we pursue, we only make offers on an even smaller percentage of the properties left over. Why? Simply put, what we find is that, most homeowners want “far-above” market value for their home.
You should also check the reputation of the website that you intend to use. A reputable website has obviously been providing quality services to the people using it. If others who used a given website before had a wonderful experience, it is highly likely that you too will have a good experience. In addition, you should check the number of properties listed on a given site. If there are many properties listed, that is a sign that there are many people who trust the site. You should raise a red flag when a given website has very few listings. If many people trust a given website, it is definitely because it has helped so many people before sell their homes. When dealing with such a website, there is a high chance that you too will be able to sell within a sort time.
Excellent post! I was happy to find a few websites on the list I hadn’t seen before. Thank you for taking the time to write this. Another website I love to use is revinre.com. Although they are only in Arizona at the moment they are great if you are looking to get your home submitted to the MLS for free.
Looking for sites to upload my property.
Zillow is not accurate in estimating the market value of a home. Zillow uses the property appraiser’s website which is most often lower than the actual market value. The property appraiser’s office provides an estimated value on a home for the purposes of calculating taxes,, not market value. The property appraiser’s website it is not supposed to be used as a tool for market value; yet, Zillow uses this a source for estimating the market value of a home.
So now what tool do we use in estimating our home’s market value?
I just came across this page today. I am also wondering how we proceed. My property consists of a little over 20 acres. I have lived here over 20 areas & would like to sell, but do not want to pay some realtor mega thousands of dollars to sell it. I would love to find a reputable site/place where I could get information on who/where to contact?
try to build the solid foundation of the bricks that others have taken, life will not be so hard.
