House-Source.Com is our newest service that we offer our clients. Selling by owner can help you save thousands of dollars in real estate commissions and fees. For those interested in selling their home themselves we offer a way to have a "virtual listing" of your home on the internet. This service is available for the Birmingham, Alabama area including Jefferson County and Shelby County. These online listings give detailed information on the houses and provides links to school and community facts. We provide the listing service alone or combined with an appraisal. Combine the appraisal and listing and get a discount price. By getting a "pre-appraisal" on your home you can set an asking price with confidence. Without an appraisal you could offer your home at a price that is to low and leave money on the table. By setting a price to high, your home could be on the market for an extended period of time. Your "sellers pack" will include information on writing newspaper ads, local financing sources for your buyer, and tips from a local real estate attorney to help your buyers save on closing costs. Call us at 205-620-6888 to advertise your home now.
