Discount Realty Services vs. For Sale By Owner Sites vs. Full Service
What’s the best type of service for selling your NYC property?
There are three main ways to sell real estate today. Which is right for you?

​FSBO
For-sale-by-owners still happen now and again. They aren’t that common in NYC due to the prices, the liabilities, and how busy we are, but some try. However, the data shows that very few who attempt this path end up selling this way. Most end up deferring the task to an agent. Even the head exec of one of the country’s most notable FSBO websites ironically used a real estate agent to sell his own home in NYC. The danger here is that a lot of the websites that say they offer support to owners, end up costing more than an agent would. Often this is upfront money, with no guarantee of a sale.

Discount Realty Services
Discount brokers often promote themselves as a cheaper option. They offer a bare bones service. They may just put your property on the MLS and a few other low-level websites, and hope another full-service agent does all the work for them. This can work, but what they don’t tell you is that in order to attract buyers you’ll need to offer a competitive and attractive commission to buyers’ brokers. If you don’t it is unlikely anything will happen. Again, the bottom line normally just results in paying the same, but for inferior service.

Full-Service Real Estate Agents
For those that are busy, who want to minimize legal liability, streamline the process, and have an expert get them top dollar for their homes, it is only common sense to choose a full-service team. It offers the best value, and best service. You can enjoy the privacy and protection you need, while attracting the best buyers.
