What result are you looking for? As a buyer, I have to assume you're looking to buy a home directly from a seller so that you can save some money.
If you're a seller, I'm guessing you're looking to save the Real Estate commission by doing the work yourself!
The fact is that if the buyer and seller are willing to do all of the work, there could be up to about 7% in Real Estate commission saved. Keep in mind, however, that the work that Realtor would have done still needs to get done!
I am a Real Estate lawyer in Niles, Ohio covering all of Northeastern Ohio. One of the things you're going to need is a title insurance agency to handle the legal end of your transaction. My fees are normal for our area, but there's much I can provide at no additional cost both for buyers and sellers entering into a Real Estate sales transaction. Let my years of experience work for you at no additional cost!
Let's get together to talk about your home buying and/or selling plans. Call me at the office (330-652-1609) or on my cell phone (330)717-4571 or send me an e-mail (zuzolo5@yahoo.com), we'll set-up a time to meet that is easy and convenient for you.
I look forward to working with you!
I have taken the liberty to negotiate some great and unusual deals with local vendors, including Realtors. For example, I have a program with a local Real Estate firm that will allow you to put your home into the mulitple listing service for as little as $299! If you want to save the listing fee but don't mind paying the Realtor that sells your home half the normal fee, this program may be just for you!
