Calculate 5-7% of what you think your property is worth, then ask yourself: Is it worth paying this much to have someone else show my property, act as a go-between to negotiate the sale and coordinate closing schedules with the lender and lawyer?

You Can Sell Faster
If you list your property with an intermediary, chances are you will vary the price of the property to receive the amount you wish for after covering the commission costs. 2 to 4 months later you'll come to realize that no one is going to buy it at that price, and you'll end up reducing your price (or accepting an offer) equal to the original amount you would have asked if selling by owner. Do it right the first time, and avoid taking the loss.
Less Hassle And Frustration
When selling by owner, you don't have to leave the house because an agent wants to show it, or clean it every morning before leaving "just in case". You know when people are coming and can prepare accordingly. And, when a buyer makes an offer, there's not all that frustrating back-and-forth telephone tag between agents to reach an agreement. It can be done in minutes, and end with a friendly handshake and smile between owner and buyer.
You Can Sell Your Property Better Than Anyone
Who better than yourself to sell your property? You know it best. The schools, the neighborhood, what is special about the area, as well as other details about the property. A well-maintained, fairly priced property virtually sells itself; your role is to simply provide additional information.
You're In Control
Nobody is going to tell you what to do. You can advertise where and how you want to (not sit by in frustration because "they're not doing enough"), schedule showings when it's convenient for you, talk directly with prospective buyers yourself, even take your property off the market for awhile if you can't find the right property for you. You aren't tied to a contract... you make your own rules.
Buyers Are Interested In Your Property
Buyers are truly interested in your property when they visit because they have personally made the effort to be there...they haven't been dragged there by an intermediary using your property for comparison purposes only.
You have great access to out-of-town and international buyers!
We deliver the magazines in more than 200 frequented places in Costa Rica. Through our website www.forsalebyownercostarica.com buyers anywhere in the world have easy access to your ad and phone number.
Less Uncertainty
Because you meet the prospective buyers, you have a much better idea how interested people are, what they like about the property, how serious they are about buying and what their time-frame and situation is. The direct feedback is easier to live with than wondering how things are going, or worse, why no one has made an offer yet.
IT'S EASY!
"If you can sell your own car, you can sell your own home…it's that simple". Once you find a buyer, the hard part's over. Closing is easy, and should you need any help, we're and email or a phone call away.
