‘How To Sell Your Own Home’ Blog and Forum Created By Chicago-Based Realtor

With the climate that exists in the US housing market today, the ugly household word “foreclosure” may soon be replaced with a much better-sounding one: FSBO. Pronounced “Fizz-bo,” the acronym represents “For Sale By Owner,” and in the current world dominated by upside-down homeowners and credit-strapped buyers, more and more sellers are looking to sell by owner. But where do these people turn to get the most up-to-date information about selling their homes as quickly and effectively as possible?

How about a free, online sell by owner blog and community forum devoted to doing just that? In tandem with his recently launched For Sale By Owner selling system called EasyPRO FSBO (www.EasyProFSBO.com), a long-successful Chicago native by the name of Sean Patrick intends to offer the blog and forum as a free service to For Sale By Owners everywhere.

“Since the Internet has made a ‘world is flat’ revolution in the real estate arena, more and more FSBO’s are showing up on the map and they need a place to gather and relate with each other’s concerns, methods and successes,” said Patrick in an interview from his Chicago-based real estate office. After doing considerable research, Patrick was surprised to uncover just a handful of blogs dedicated to FSBO, and the ones he did find were sometimes left without updates any more recent than 2006.

“This was shocking to me, and I knew I needed to put a blog together where I could post my everyday experiences within the real estate trenches to give ideas and strategies for people looking to sell by owner. There are thousands of people wondering ‘How do I sell my house myself’ not because they don’t want to hire a Realtor but because they simply can’t afford to”

Patrick’s blog and forum will compliment his sister site, EasyPRO FSBO, in the effort to help sellers that owe too much on their homes and therefore can’t afford a listing agent. EasyPRO offers a complete system to effectively sell your own home, with for sale by owner tips and strategies assembled by Patrick through his practices and know-how as a nationally ranked real estate professional licensed in multiple states. Visitors to the site can download the first two chapters of the system free of charge.

“I think it’s important for people looking to sell their own home to have a sense of online community, a place where they can find out what service providers actually helped other FSBOs to sell their own home,” Patrick went on to say. “A free resource like this is crucial to have at your fingertips so you can get feedback, ideas, and best-of-breed methods from real people that choose to sell by owner.”

Patrick hopes those who consider selling their own home will visit the blog at http://www.howtofsboblog.com and forum at http://www.forsalebyownerforum.com . “I highly recommend you join in on the discussions surrounding these relevant topics so we can continue to build this important FSBO community online”.
