Frequently Asked Questions
How can you charge so much less than a traditional agent?
Traditional agents charge 5-6% in commissions, regardless of how much effort is required. We do not operate as real estate agents. Instead, we provide expert guidance, education, and legal support for a flat fee, helping homeowners sell their homes independently. By focusing only on what homeowners actually need and eliminating unnecessary commissions, we provide an affordable alternative without sacrificing legal protection.
Will my home still show up on Zillow, Redfin, and other real estate sites?
Yes. We guide you on how to get your home listed on the MLS, Zillow, Trulia, and other major real estate platforms for maximum exposure. Buyers will see your listing just as they would with a traditional agent, but you remain in control of the process.
Will buyer's agents still show my home to their clients?
Yes, buyer’s agents often show FSBO (For Sale By Owner) homes to their clients, as long as the listing offers a competitive buyer’s agent commission. We advise on industry norms and strategies to ensure your home remains attractive to buyers represented by agents, but it is up to you whether to offer a buyer’s agent commission.
What if my home doesn't sell?
Because you control your listing and pricing, the outcome depends on market conditions and your sales strategy. We provide expert guidance on pricing, listing exposure, and buyer engagement to help you position your home for a successful sale. However, we do not guarantee a sale, as that depends on market demand and your decisions as the homeowner.
Do I have to do everything myself?
Not at all. While you remain in control of listing, marketing, and showings, we guide you through every step, including pricing strategies, listing setup, and marketing insights. Our partner attorneys handle negotiations, contracts, and closing paperwork to protect your interests and ensure a legally sound transaction. Please note, we do not list properties or conduct showings, as these activities require a licensed real estate agent.
Is this legal? Why don't more people sell this way?
Yes, selling your home without a real estate agent is 100% legal in Illinois. Many homeowners are simply unaware of their options due to the traditional dominance of the real estate industry. Agents benefit from high commission structures and often don’t inform sellers that they can legally sell on their own with the right guidance and legal support. Our goal is to educate and empower sellers to take full control of their home sale while ensuring they are legally protected.
How quickly can I get started?
You can start right away! Once you book a consultation, we provide step-by-step guidance to prepare your home for sale, from pricing to legal protections. Depending on your readiness, you can have your home listed within a few days to a week.
