Do I need to have my property with a real estate agent to use this website?
You do not need to have your property with a real estate agent to use our site. This website accommodates For Sale By Owner, as well as properties listed with a real estate agency. We do strongly suggest hiring a real estate agent though, because they are trained professionals in selling and negotiating a deal with a potential buyer. Real Estate Agents make the time to show your property and hold open houses, so you don’t have to take the time out of your schedule. Whatever your decision is, we can get you the maximum exposure for your property, at the lowest price around.

What if I have my listing with a real estate agent?
This website is an amazing tool and should be used as another avenue to sell your property.  It doesn’t affect the contract you have with your agent and the commission your agent would get from the sale of your property. We would suggest you discuss this with your real estate agent and find out if they would want to put their information in the contact section or if you should put your own.  This website is actually used mostly by Real Estate Agents and Brokers in the Tri-State Area, as a successful way to sell their clients properties.

As a real estate agent, what should I include in my contract with
my client?
In your contract with your client, you should include a clause that states a property exchange is included under the definition of a sale and therefore you would get the agreed upon commission as a result. This is a great opportunity for you to possibly get a commission from both sides of the sale, as a result of the exchange.

How is contact made once I find a property that meets my criteria?
Once you find a match that interests you, then you can contact the other buyer/seller by internal email, without having your personal information revealed. We help you get to that point of contact and then it’s your decision to exchange more personal information at your discretion.

How do I ensure that the Buyer/Seller, that I have decided to
exchange my property with, will go through with buying my
property after I buy theirs?
Your attorney may recommend putting a contingency clause in your contract to ensure that the exchange goes as planned and you are protected.
