Sell Your Home Without a Realtor: Save Money and Reduce Your Risk

You’ll Save Thousands of Dollars by Selling Your Home Yourself. We Provide the Legal Counsel You Need to Close the Deal with Peace of Mind.

Selling your home can be a very expensive proposition, especially in light of today’s choosy buyers in a competitive market. We can help you sell your home and save a lot of money in the process.

How? We give you the tools and legal guidance you need for a low flat fee instead of a typical commission. If you’re selling a home for $500,000, you’re looking at up to $10,000 in savings.

And since we’re attorneys as well as licensed brokers, you get sound legal advice throughout the processes. Our flat fee includes everything below:

  • Property listing in the NWMLS that serves the greater Puget Sound region and 19 counties in Washington. It will appear on all major and most minor brokerage sites, such as Windermere, John L. Scott, Coldwell Banker Bain, and RE/MAX, plus the NWMLS search site.
  • Comparative market analysis to help you set your asking price
  • Professional photography of your home
  • Syndication of your listing to other real estate related websites like Zillow and Trulia
  • A professional “For Sale” sign installed for you and removed when you sell
  • Flyer box and full-color .pdf flyer that you can print yourself
  • A NWMLS-approved electronic keybox so agents can show your home without you present
  • An open house for brokers or the public, as well as advertising online and on the street
  • Marketing advice, tips, and best practices to help you spread the word
  • Legal counsel throughout the sale of your home, including explanation of legally required disclosures and negotiations on your behalf
  • Contract drafting, as well as reviewing all offers, analyzing a potential buyer’s ability to perform, and preparing counteroffers, notices, and more
  • Guidance on filling out your seller disclosure form
  • Contingencies monitoring to ensure that your buyer has satisfied or waived all of them
  • Receive notices on your behalf and forward them promptly to you by email

True, you’ll have to do some of the work yourself, like preparing and staging the property and hosting tours. But we can do that too, or provide more of the included services, for a low hourly rate.

Some people don’t have the time or interest to deal with buyers. That’s cool, but then you might want to go with someone else. On a $500,000 property, plan on paying up to $15,000 to your listing agent, plus another $15,000 to the buyer’s agent. First, though, check out how we compare to other brokers — we’re better overall, and not just on price.
