Do not believe this book. Hiring a realtor is the BEST way to sell your house. I tried to use this book and lost thousands of dollars and ended up hiring a realtor anyways. The keys to selling a house are advertising and having a way for buyers and their realtors to see your house at all times of the day. This book does NOT provide adequate information on this, and you do need a realtor for the advertising and access to your house for showing.

Having attempted to sell our home throught a realtor with disappointing results, we have decided to research the sell your own home market. This slim, easy to read book is the ideal starting place. It is brief, well organized, and to the point. For various reasons, we are discontinuing our efforts to sell our home until spring, but we plan to use the information in the book to shape our selling campaign.

I haven’t actually finished reading it yet, but this book is from several years ago. It obviously can’t be up to date about the present market conditions. But there are still helpful ideas and suggestions, and they refer to the possibility of a Buyer’s Market in places.

Followed the tips for preparing our home, setting a price, advertising, and making appointments with prospective buyers. The sign went in the yard on a Wednesday and 10 days later we had a signed purchase/sale agreement. The book is very encouraging and right on the money. A nice home at the right price pretty much sells itself. There’s no magic to it, but the process only works if you have the time and sense to apply the steps in the book. If you’re too busy, too lazy, or too confused, then get yourself an agent and give them a big chunk of your hard-earned equity.

I noticed that the only negative reviews on this book are from REALTORS. Of course, they haven’t read the book they only want to discourage people from selling by owner, saving money and cutting them out of the deal. Realtors think that they are entitled to a commission, they should think again.
It’s easy to see who the realtors are here writing ‘reviews’.
The people who sell their own homes by following the advice in this book are the right and true reviewers.
I highly recommend this book, and it’s unique information to anyone who is thinking of selling their own home…it will save you a fortune in outrageous real estate commissions and save you time and effort!
