Thank you for this wonderful tool that you offer the people in Birmingham.
Selling our home was one of the most enjoyable not to mention one of the
easiest experiences of our lives. We had an offer after only 2 1/2 weeks
and from that point things progressed effortlessly to closing.
Just a funny little note. Our closing with our buyers went very smoothly
without any holdups but our closing on our new home was not so easy. We
had to wait and wait because the real estate agent had not done what they
needed to do for us to close on time. Thanks again and we will recommend
this web site to all our friends!
Sincerely,
Chris and Christine Feenker |

Pat,
All has gone so quickly and smoothly! A lady from Florida saw the listing
on the internet the first week and just knew it was what she had been
looking for. Even though we have been going through negotiations with her,
we have continued to receive tremendous interest on the house including
two other offers.
Thank you for all of your help, your site is wonderful. We are definitely
keeping our signs and stuff for the next time we decide to sell.
Sincerely,
Randy and Joan McKinney |

Pat-
We did it! We beat our record! We sold a house on your website almost 3
years ago in just 12 days! More recently, (February of this year) we sold
our house in only 4 days! You and your website made it happen.
We had an open house the first weekend it was on the market and had a
wonderful stream of traffic come through. Almost everyone said they saw it
on the web and knew they wanted to see it in person. Everyone commented on
how great the pictures were that you took. We are very thankful and
consider ourselves blessed for having you help us.
I hope I never have to sell another home but if I do, you can count on it,
we will be calling you first.
Sincerely,
Tahara and Toner Evans |

The
web site definitely helped to sell our home. The couple saw it on the web
page and only came to look at it once before making their offer. I am
sure it helped them to have an accurate picture of the house to see.
Almost everyone who came to see our house saw it on the web, very few just
saw the sign and called.
Thank you for all your help!

Patrick,
We actually had an acceptable contract on our house within the first 24
hours
it went on the market. I am glad we chose your site to list our house - we
have been extremely pleased with the amazing amount of interest and calls
we received.
Thank you!

Pat,
We sold our house in 2 months. We closed yesterday, 4-30-03. This was the
second time we used your website and we were pleased both times. What a
great website you have, very professional. The flyers you gave us with the
pictures and information of the house helped because the couple that
bought our house did not have access to the internet. We will definitely
use your website again.
Thanks for all your help.

Dear Pat,
Just wanted to let you know that your services were very helpful in
bringing
our buyer to us. We actually had several people very interested and were
able to get what we wanted for the house. We have recommended your website
to a couple of our friends who are currently trying to sell for sale by
owner. Out of all the websites that offer your services, yours is the most
straightforward and the easiest on which to navigate. Thanks again for
everything. We will definitely use your website the next time we decide to
sell.
Sincerely,
Susan and Beatty Richardson

We enjoyed using your service. It made the sale of
our home a much better experience because we did not waste our time
setting up showings without people first viewing our website. Thanks for
your help.

The web site was great! We received so many calls
from people pre-viewing our home before they came. It really helped to
screen only the interested buyers. As a matter of fact, most of the people
who came really were impressed at how the pictures on the web site were so
true to what the house really was.
Our buyers were so amazed at how quick and painless the "for sale by
owner" process was. They said that they would have done theirs the same
way and avoided a realtor if they had known. We certainly intend to use
ForSale-ByOwner again, (when we decide to sell.) Thanks so much! You did a
great job on photos and descriptions.
Thanks!

Hey Patrick,
We have sold three homes and this was the greatest. First couple that
looked at our home wrote a contract. We realized that putting it on the
market right before Thanksgiving and Christmas would probably take a
little longer. But not so, they looked before Christmas, and said they
would write the contract after the first of the year. We got to enjoy the
Holidays!
If anyone asks this is the only way to sell your home! People can look at
the home all they want and you don't have to spend all your time cleaning
and waiting for Real Estate agents to show up.
Thanks so much for all the help.

Patrick,
We finally can write you a success story. Our house sold around the last
of February and the pictures had a lot to do with it. The pictures gave
someone an idea of what the house looked like before they made a visit.
The two best benefits from using your service were: 1) saved $5,000 in
commission, and 2) set up appointments for visits when it fit both party's
schedules.
My only advice to other people thinking about using the service is to
price their house competitively with the surrounding houses and not to
overprice your home.
Thanks for your service and we'll use you again in the future.

We bought both our new home and sold our former home
with ForSale-ByOwner.com and we could not be more pleased with the success
we had. Pat's professionalism, promptness and advice were
invaluable. The exposure we got from the website helped us to sell
our home in just one week. Our favorite part about the service is
the ticker at the bottom of the page for each house. Not only could
we tell how much interest there was in our home, but potential buyers knew
they needed to act fast and bid high. We could have never had the
success we had buying or selling if it hadn't been for
ForSale-ByOwner.com. We are telling everyone we know!

Thanks again,
