Hi Abi, statistically speaking, if you sell by owner you net less than if you hire a licensed Realtor, due to the vast marketing strategies utilized by Realtors. That being said, you can contact a local Title Company and give them the details and they will provide you with a net sheet. If you would like assistance connecting with a Title Company I can be reached at: [email protected]

Hello Abi. You are taking such a risk trying to sell your property by yourself without the help of a professional. I hope it works out for you and that you had some help in establishing the asking price. The title company will be able to tell you your net proceeds. It all depends on taxes that will be collected and any other costs you may incur. Best of Luck!

Hi Abimael, If you are FSBO you would use a local title company to help assist you with the sale and they can provide you with an estimated settlement statement to give you an idea of how much you will net. If you do decide to work with a Realtor, they can also provide you with net sheet, they will make sure all the necessary paperwork and disclosures get done and you will usually net more due to their marketing strategies to get you the most money possible far outweighing the commission you pay.

Hey Abi, it all depends if you are going to pay a buyers agent and closing cost. I can send you a net sheet which will give you a break down on closing cost and other fees. I am licensed in FL, so I am not sure how they handle it in Delaware, but I can speak to one of my partners and get some answers for you if you like. How’s that sound?

  • If I sell my home, will my boyfriend receive part of the sale?

    I wanted some clarification before deciding to put my home on the market. My boyfriend and I purchased a home together several years ago. We split up so he signed a quitclaim deed but is obviously still on the loan. If I want to sell my home that I have been making payments on myself for the last 8 years. Does he need to sign anything and would he be entitled to any of the sale money?
