Going live with the FSBO Route but realtor friendly too
Hi! So I always wanted to see what its like selling on your own (I know crazy) But I have the time, great property and neighborhood, some common sense and like all of us here I enjoy real estate and especially foreclosure buys (been through 4 already) I'm listing the property as FSBO, doing the flatfee MLS Midweek and of course Buyers Realtor fee-friendly. I fully expect 90% interest offer will likely have a realtor. Word of mouth with signage and FB mentions already bringing some inquiries.
Anyways, My question is this; probing questions, how do you politely ask "are you preapproved or have proof of funds"? and what are some of the other good responses to have to chats/emails?
I fully expect this house to get a ton of attention, a nicely remodeled, area is hot & no homes in the neighborhood because all the other got bids in 3 days. I'm priced at the upperend of like homes that sold. I did pro photos to and she shoots and the photographer (works with 100+ realtors) kindly added me to her website/FB so I know that'll get alot of interest and the phots will too.

Don't be bashful about asking for POF. I would put it in the ad that you require POF for a showing and blame it on Covid. Just be upfront and weed out the tire kickers and nosy neighbors. If not you will waste a lot of time. Also your phone will blow up from realtors. Be prepared to tell them you aren't interested in listing but will protect them if they bring you a buyer. Good luck.
