The Happy Homeowners Handbook for Selling Your Home By Owner

A Practical Guide to Successfully Selling Your Home Without a Realtor

Selling your home can be one of the largest financial transactions you will ever make. Many homeowners automatically assume they must hire a real estate agent, but that is not always the case.

Thousands of homeowners successfully sell their homes themselves each year through the For Sale By Owner (FSBO) process.

The Happy Homeowners Handbook for Selling Your Home By Owner was written to help homeowners understand how the process works and what steps may help them sell their property successfully without paying large real estate commissions.

Written by Fred Turner, who previously operated a For Sale By Owner business helping homeowners market their properties, this book provides practical insight into the steps involved in preparing, marketing, and negotiating the sale of your home.

This guide explains how homeowners can take control of the process and potentially save thousands of dollars in commission fees.
