Home Businesses | What Newspapers Don't Tell ~ and Agents Won't Say.

For Sale By Owners, ?FSBO?s,? place themselves at substantial risk when they invite -- so called -- home buyer prospects in to see their homes for sale. While law enforcement officers discourage people from opening their doors to people from ?Off the street,? newspapers are busy selling ?Open House? and For Sale By Owner advertising to na?ve sellers who insist on doing it themselves -- to save a buck.

Okay, so maybe the real estate agents split 5 to 7 percent of what they sell your house for, if they market it for you. And, if they do not tell you how dangerous house selling is, it may be that they fear that they will alarm you, that you will take offense, and not ?List with them later? when you are unsuccessful in your own efforts? Can you blame them?

Hey, I am not sugar coating this subject. It needs to be addressed, even if you don?t want to know the truth. Do you really think ?Street people,? those on drugs and thieves; can not look presentable enough to get into your house. They do it all of the time. It?s even easier for them -- and safer them -- than stealing from stores. How do you think they get their merchandize to hock and sell on the streets?

They normally come in to your house after they see other buyer prospects are already inside. Or, if they are first, the crooks will wait around long enough for others to arrive who will divert your interest. Maybe, even their cohorts or cronies? They don?t need to be rocket scientists.

A frightening reality based novel on the subject is available to read at no charge to internet users: http://books.iuniverse.com/viewbooks.asp?isbn=0595287034&page=fm1.

For Sale By Owners would be wise to consider reading it. Hey, if you decide to buy this novel, I will likely make $1.54 in royalties from my publisher. I don?t need the money that badly. I do care about you, and those that you love, getting hurt, or worse. I won?t go there in this brief article.
