The majority of people that contact us through our website are looking for bank owned properties because they think they'll get the best deal. Usually they're right. I think the market is going to be extremely tough for sale by owner. I think Ann makes some good points.

This and combined with the fact that many potential buyers are reading about real estate and mortgage scams, so they wisely chose to work with Agents. With regards to your comment about converting FSBO in this market. I think that is so true, I really don't think some that doesn't need to see will try to list their home in a buyer's market. So good luck and go close some deals.
