Thanks for your write-up. One other thing is that if you are selling your property all on your own, one of the challenges you need to be conscious of upfront is how to deal with property inspection records. As a FSBO vendor, the key about successfully moving your property along with saving money in real estate agent commissions is know-how. The more you already know, the simpler your sales effort will be. One area that this is particularly important is information about home inspections.
