Real estate has one of the most active and growing sales and marketing activities. Customarily, since the selling of real estate properties involves a hefty sum, creative sales and marketing strategies are needed to acquire the best deal. Through the years, it has been proven that real estate sales generation are more effective when coursed through accredited real estate brokers. However, in recent times, it has also ventured to the so-called For-sale-by-owner scheme.

The For-sale-by-owner mechanism works through having the property owner himself does his own sales and marketing activities for his own property to acquire the best sales deal. Personal testimonies of property owners/sellers also proved that such mechanism is equally as effective as those sales which were facilitated by accredited real estate brokers. However, there are also major setbacks which may either directly or indirectly affect the sales.


Real estate selling is characterized by utilizing a wide network of contacts in prospecting clients for a specific property deal. In fact the key to acquiring the best deal in property selling is prospecting from a wide array of qualified buyers; whoever offers and conforms to the best deal gets the sale. Hence, what if the seller has a limited number of network contacts to whom he can actually offer his for sale property? Then, consequently, it goes without noting that the selection for the best market deal is also limited. This is a predicament which usually a For-sale-by-owner scheme can readily encounter. Admittedly, if one engages in selling his own property without passing through an accredited real estate broker, his prospective list of buyers is also limited to his own personal contacts. Unlike when engaging a real estate professional seller, where his of sales and marketing network can draw a ready thick market, to whom he can offer the for-sale-property.


Further, a solo seller (wherein in this scheme is personified by the property owner, himself) has a very lean machinery which will do the actual talking, processing and closing the sale. The solo seller will only have his own actual resources to utilize. Hence, it becomes too costly, laborious and arduous. Unlike when engaging a real estate broker, where a property owner will just conveniently entrusts the entire sales and marketing activities to him and the property owner’s participation will only be in the actual closing and sealing of the deal.

It is imperative that selling a property entails as laborious and convincing power to a wide array of prospective buyer. It is a fact that there indeed moments where a real estate broker is having a hard time closing a deal despite his sales expertise and existing machineries. So, how is it more difficult if these sales activities will be solely done by the property owner himself, with a limited resources and actual experiences in actual sales transactions.


The main objective of real property selling is disposing a property at the best deal available responsive to the needs of the property owner, within a short span of time at the most convenient possible way. Therefore, not discounting the selling abilities and capabilities of the property owner/seller, it might be to be very much advisable to be open to all possible available and accessible proven mechanism to do the actual selling. Anyway, sales will always boil down to whoever gets to offer the best package.
