Can anyone choose to sell their home as FSBO?

Typically, yes. Though you have to be willing to put in the work - and that includes marketing, listing prices, showings, handling contracts, negotiations, and so forth.

Is the seller responsible for title insurance fees?

It depends. In Virginia, it is customary for the buyer to pay the title insurance fees. However, this can always be negotiated. Keep in mind that this can be different for different states - even if you are selling FSBO.

Does a title company handle the recording of signed documents after the closing?

Yes. Part of the role of a title company, like FIZZBOW, is to have all the signed documents recorded.

Can I still save money with an FSBO if a title company is involved?

Absolutely. Well, when it is the right title company. You will still save on realtor commission fees, but you will also be protecting yourself from any issues with the title and the transaction itself. Title agents can be the expert eye you need to ensure everything goes as planned.

Why For Sale by Owner (FSBO)?

Greater Profits For You, The Seller

For the Purchaser, there may be a significant discount in the sales price or an inside track with an existing relationship with the seller. If the seller is avoiding commission, typically the buyer is the most immediate beneficiary of those cost-savings.

FSBO Provides Greater Control

From pricing the property and negotiations to deciding how and where it’s marketed, and who and when it’s sold to - FSBOs provide full control to YOU, the seller.
