β€’ Steve Klein β€’ Season 6 β€’ Episode 8

In episode 68 of the FSBO Smarts Podcast, host Steve Klein answers a frequently asked question: Why did he start selling homes For Sale By Owner (FSBO) instead of using a real estate agent? Steve shares his personal journey and the top five reasons that motivated him to embrace the FSBO process.

Key Topics Covered:

  1. Investing Roots: Steve recounts his early experiences in the late 80s real estate market, emphasizing how high interest rates and the desire for investment freedom led him to handle his own transactions.
  2. Low Volume Sales: With typically only one or two properties to sell at any given time, Steve found it manageable and cost-effective to sell without an agent.
  3. Love for the Process: The joy of meeting new homeowners and helping them start their journey has always been a rewarding aspect for Steve.
  4. Control Over the Sale: Steve highlights the benefits of having full control over the sale process, including pricing, marketing strategies, and not being tied down by an underperforming agent.
  5. Significant Cost Savings: Saving thousands of dollars on commission fees is a major incentive, allowing sellers to reinvest those savings or use them for other financial goals.

Steve also discusses the potential challenges and considerations of going the FSBO route, providing a balanced perspective for those contemplating this option. Whether you're a seasoned investor or a first-time home seller, this episode offers valuable insights into the benefits and motivations behind selling your home without a real estate agent.
