Lenders hate FSBO as well. Some of them are have special appraisal requirements for FSBO homes. Don’t be cheap, list the home wiith an actual living breathing agent please.

As an investor I regularly see similar things listed on investor websites with no name, no phone number, no price, no mention of condition of the property. I just laugh. How do they expect to sell these things.**Ned´s last blog post..Lessons from Warren Buffett on Real Estate

I received an email once from a FSBO who did actually go into detail about the home. He said he was willing to co-op, and really hoped I had a buyer for his beautiful home. The tone was totally "suck-up" until I read the last paragraph: "Please, NO realtor calls to list my home!"OK ......... DELETE!**Elaine Reese´s last blog post..Happy Hallo-wiener!

Hah, that’s classic!

On the plus side though, at least you can breathe a sigh of relief when these sellers only have THEMSELVES to argue what “market price” is, rather than forcing an agent to waste time that could be better spent yelling at a wall or something

That’s assuming of course that they’d ever realize it was price that was the problem and still remain unable to find a reason to blame a nearby agent.

Can’t help the stupid.

I always delete "those" emails, as well as the ones sent by realtors that do include photos! If my client's are interested in the property, I'll find it for them on the MLS. However, I do want to hear about collegues listings, but only because I'm interested in them, not because I think I'll have a buyer for it. And if you really want my attention on your listings, tell me about it, don't just send an email.What really kills me, is getting emails for homes that are in areas that I don't sell in. I live in Colorado Springs, and Denver agents send me info on their listings. I could sell up there, but it would be foolish. I don't know their market! And if I had a client that was interested in that area, I'd send them to a realtor in that area; one that would give me a nice referral. So, perhaps they should be sending me info on how much they give for referrals.**Marianne´s last blog post..Home Organization Tips

Hi Jay,This email was actually an ingenious marketing piece until you had to go and ruin the beauty in its simplicity by blocking out the MLS number and the author!Shame on you, this marketing piece had potential!**Property Qwest Blog - Real Estate News and Housing Data´s last blog post..Foreclosure Capitals: Is Your City Next?
