I didnt realize that 33% of properties are sold by FSBO's. I expect we will continue to see this number increase as homeowners find it harder and harder to justify paying $20K commision to their real estate agent! Very informative and helpful!

We paid to have our home advertised, but are thinking that we are only getting less than half of the services promised? This is the third time that we have advertised through this company. We have also purchased homes through this organization. Have things changed? I am wondering why we cannot find any fsbo magazines in our area?

This is good information for the fsbo seller. In fact the percentage of home owners going without a realtor is steadily increasing, thereby having a negative growth potential to the National Association of Realtors. In some areas, Ohio for example the legislature has made it difficult for the non-Realtor to participate in the sale of properties via assignment of contracts. You now need a license to simply assign a contract. It is all about control as the Realtor industry slowly loses its stranglehold on individuals and the investor-pro who generally is an experienced pro. The same is true for loan modifications. The loan modifications program are nothing new for HUD as it has been a requirement for lenders to offer these "mitigating" programs to troubled homeowners. I think the HUD officials have had to implement some kind of controls because it was starting to look like the loan modification circus--just as the "we buy ugly houses" had become. Everybody and his brother were the "expert" in loan mods and foreclosure rescue. Then they would take the money and run. The challenge here is for steady paying homeowners to not feel gypped when they fail to qualify for a loan mod or bailout. It is a concern in Washington especially as home values continue to erode and wall street loses value. One area of positive growth is the emerging rent to own industry. In fact, Freddie Mac has already mandated programs fir many home owners who cannot afford mortgage payments. What do you think? Will rent to own homes supplant "we buy ugly houses" as the next mantra? Whether it is rent to own homes, fsbo, or loan modifications the homeowner is certainly capable of performing all of these functions for a potential buyer. Hi.
