Best Home SellersTip: Free MLS Listing for Sale by Owner

More than 70% of homes sold in the United States are sold via MLS (Multiple List Service). An MLS listing gets your house on Realtor.com. 80% of home buyers look for their new house on the internet. The majority of home buyers visit Realtor.com.

You can pay some outrageous fees for listing your “For Sale By Owner” home on MLS, or you can list with a realtor. An innovative company has created a new way for you to list your home on MLS; and it’s free. Realtors and buyers will not only view your listing, but can also view as many photos and videos of your home as you want to upload.

Iggys House makes the professional real estate agent tool, MLS, available to home owners trying to sell “By Owner.” Launched a short time ago, March 2007, Iggys House lists your home for free. You don’t need an agent. You don’t pay any fees. You are listed the same as any other listing in MLS, which means your “For Sale By Owner” home is also seen on such popular listing sites as MSN and The Wall Street Journal.

This is the best innovation in the home buying and selling market for years. Iggys House places power in the hands of the person who really wants the house to sell, the owner. Iggys House believes that most home buyers prefer to find their houses themselves. Real estate agents serve as the middleman, doing little and collecting precious profits from the sale of your home. Knock out the middleman by listing your house for free on Iggys House.

How does Iggys House do it? What is the catch? There really is none. April of 2006, the owners and operators of Iggys House launched an innovative company called BuySide Realty. BuySide rewards the home buyer by paying them 75% of the commission for the effort they put into finding the home they want to buy. BuySide provides buyers with advice and closing assistance.

Iggys House and BuySide Realty are also enabled by the mortgage company BuySide Mortgage. BuySide promises competitive rates, and offers pre-approval for new home buyers. In essence the concept of Iggys House and free MSL listings for “For Sale By Owner” houses is that by providing a free service for sellers, they may gain a customer as a buyer. It’s simple good-will marketing.

There is no catch and no obligation to buy through BuySide Realty. Home sellers should still employ a variety of strategies to sell their home. Before you list with Iggys House make sure that your state has access to MLS. At least half of the United States uses the MLS home buying and selling service.

Iggys House is a new concept and a new company, but according to reports sellers who want to eliminate the middleman are flocking to the site. Check it out if you are trying to sell your home “By Owner.”
