What Does For Sale By Owner (FSBO) Mean?

For Sale By Owner (FSBO) means you sell your property without hiring a traditional real estate agent. Instead, you handle the listing, marketing, negotiations, and paperwork yourself — often saving thousands in commission fees.

📌 The Basics of FSBO

  • Control: You make all the decisions about pricing, showings, and offers.
  • Cost Savings: Avoid the typical 3% listing agent commission.
  • Workload: You take on tasks normally handled by an agent, like marketing and negotiations.

💡 Why People Choose FSBO

Many homeowners choose FSBO to save money and maintain full control over their sale. With tools like Flat Fee MLS listings, FSBO sellers can still get the same online exposure as properties listed by traditional agents — including Realtor.com, Zillow, and other major platforms.
