Jared and Janet Briskin (Listing #1639) 1675 Old Cahaba Court Helena, AL 35080 Old Cahaba

HI! I am letting you know that we are sold!!! Thank you for letting us save our money and keep it. And just to let you know that our only form of advertising was the internet and drive-bys. We did not do any pay advertising or open houses.

Our final price was 160,000. I think we did pretty good.

Thank you,

The Briskin’s

Roger and Kristi Williams (Listing #1640) 131 St. Charles Drive Helena, AL 35080 Jackson Square

We closed on 131 St. Charles Drive on November 19th! We had three offers the very first week and ended up selling it for full asking price! I will never use a real estate agent again to sell a home! It was so easy! - and your service was great!

Matt and Jen Remick (Listing #1620) 6026 Waterside Drive Hoover, AL 35244 Lake Cyrus

Our house sold very quickly, the website was a big help as were the signs.  We held an open house every Sunday!  This is a great service but you have to be willing to put in the time - print up flyers, keep signs up, run open houses and you can sell your home yourself - no problem!!

Cynthia and Joey Fortner (Listing #1532) 525 St. Lauren Way Hoover, AL 35242 Greystone Village

Your website is the best that I have seen--the quality of pictures far surpasses the other realty websites. The detailed information and directions were excellent as well as the ease of moving around on the website and ability to find what one is looking for...everything went smoothly and we were very pleased with your website and services!  We have told a ton of our friends about your website and if we EVER move again, which I said after moving that we would NEVER do again, we would think of nowhere else but ForSale-ByOwner.com to choose to help us!!!!

Tell Pat we said thank you so much for THE DASH!

Cindy and Joe Evans (Listing #1672) 4006 Eagle Valley Circle Birmingham, AL 35242 Eagle Point

Our home sold because of ForSale-ByOwner.com. Our buyers were from out of town and saw our home on the web site. There were no realtors involved! It was great!

Thanks!

Karen King Blan (Listing #1714) 3268 Overton Manor Drive Vestavia Hills, AL 35243 Cahaba Heights

We ended up with three offers within the first week and an average of 3-4 phone calls per day on this listing. Selling without a real estate agent was much easier than we anticipated. So much easier since both of us work to be able to schedule showings at our convenience instead of having a lock box.

Thanks for a great service.

Claude and Cathy Lawson (Listing #1198) 2708 Lakeland Trail Hoover, AL Altadena area (Unincorporated Jefferson Co.)

My buyers saw the notice on your website that I was having an open house. They had previewed it on the website, came to the open house, and put an offer on it the next day. No agents were involved! Thanks for saving me a TON of money! And I had only had it back on the market for a week.

I wanted to let y’all know we closed on the house today. We had it up for $169,900 and got $170,900. We started receiving phone calls the day it appeared, and had a contract on it in 3 weeks. We have nothing but good things to say about y’all and your web site, and have already told lots of people about the ease and success of our sale.

Thank you so much for all your help,

Matt and Melissa Franklin (Listing #1651) 2416 Jannebo Road Birmingham, AL 35216 Hoover/Vestavia area (off Rocky Ridge Road)

This was our second time to use the website -- both times we have had a contract on two different houses within one week. We bought our new home from the website as well -- 711 Comer Drive -- great experience. A realtor was not involved in any of these transaction -- that money/commission stays in our pockets.

 Thanks -- see you next time we sell (or buy) again.

Lisa and David Kelley (Listing #1519) 2013 King Arthur Circle Alabaster, AL 35007

We closed on our house this week so please put "Sold" on listing #1519. Our asking price was 123,900 and we sold it for 121,000. We listed it on June 15th, had a buyer two months to the day (August 15th) and closed October 1st. We can't thank you enough for everything you did for us. You were right....it was so easy and it saved us thousands of dollars that we were able to put into the home we are currently building instead of a realtors pocket. I recommend you all the time and won't think twice about who to call if we ever sell again.
 

Thanks so much!

Alicia,

I'm please to inform you that we closed on our house last Thursday, September 30. Your website made the difference for us. Our home had been listed by a realtor for three months prior to us listing it with you. We got a full price contract three weeks to the day that it listed with you. Thanks!

Dear ForSale-ByOwner.com,

We had a contract in 5 days from posting it on the web site!!  We bought our house from this site and the people we bought from bought their house from this site.  That says a lot!

Thanks,

Anna and Travis Holly (Listing #1609) 319 Hidden Creek Trail Pelham, AL 35124 Hidden Creek

Patrick,

We closed on listing #1609 on Friday for $121,000. Although our buyer did not find the house on your website, she used it to show the house to her parents in south Florida who encouraged her to buy the house after seeing the pictures.  We used the contract that we received from you, and everything went really smoothly.

Thanks,
Anna and Travis Holly

Greg and Dana Smith (Listing #1459) 364 S. Burbank Drive Hoover, AL 35226 Bluff Park

Patrick,

Our first offer came 2 days after the web site went up, then we had 2 offers over the 4th of July weekend. One of those offers we took.

We have been recommending your services to all our friends who are selling or buying a home. We wouldn't sell a home any other way! It's ridiculous to throw all that money away when you can put it into your next home...or your pocket!

Thanks so much,

Dana Smith

Beth and John Carr (Listing #1376) 236 Kent Lane Homewood, AL

Well, we closed the sale of our house #1376 on July 29, 2004. We also closed on the purchase of our new home, another listing on your site, on the same day.

Your site is wonderful! We were very pleased with all the traffic it generated. It also made "shopping" for a new house a breeze. There is no match out there for the quality of the pictures you take of the homes. We plan to never move again. But, in case never comes, we will, without a doubt, sign up with you again. We also made some new, wonderful, friends through this process.

Thank you for all your support. We will highly recommend you to anyone.

Fondly,
Beth Carr

Larry and Sandra Riggs (Listing #1495) 1765 Russet Hill Circle Hoover, AL 35244 Russet Woods

Thanks Pat and Amanda,

We have always sold our own home but this time was special. The response from your internet service sold our home within the first month. The excellent quality of the pictures clarity and descriptions of the amenities helped immensely.

We had the privilege to find and buy our dream home and in turn selling our home, using your website!
Your organization is congratulated on an excellent job well done!

Sincerely, Larry and Sandra
