What is FiSBO® and how does it work?
FiSBO® has bridged the gap between a private sale and a traditional agent by providing full-service marketing to the point of inducement then our "Hybrid" sales platform helps the vendor to sell.
FiSBO® was created by Ben Keehan former real estate salesperson to automate the sales process as most of what agents do is repetitive and very outdated. FiSBO® is the acronym For internet Sale By Owner.
We provide all the signs, photos, Virtual Tours, scripts, Assisted Open Homes, Inspections, TradeMe and Social Media posts. You can choose to prepay or postpay for your campaign from 1%+GST!
All campaigns start out with a price or by negotiation, then turn into an auction when there are multiple offers. Unlike a normal auction, all bids can include conditions with the dollar value of the BiD's displayed in the public listing (transparent) and buyers can change their bid or conditions at any time.
Once the vendor is satisfied they "Approve" one buyer's bid and the system sends all the detail to their solicitor to draft the agreement and keep all parties safe.
The latest campaign at 11a Windsor saw two buyers start bidding 1 day after the first open home then reaching their limits the vendor was satisfied by the third day. The solicitors had it all in hand and the house is now sold setting a record for the street and the vendors saved a considerable amount in fees compared to a traditional agent.
We want your business in 2021, so please call me to discuss your property campaign and find out how to FiSBO® your property
