- Real Estate Relocation
See the AskMe Feature Below.
“For Sale By Owner” homes very often overpriced
No-one denies that, on occasion, you can negotiate directly with the sellers and save money. However, most buyers assume that if they buy directly from an owner they will get a lower price. Since the owners wouldn’t have to pay a commission, they could pass along their savings to the buyers. But why would they want to? Most sellers don’t take on the burden and expense of selling their own home so they can give buyers a better price. They do it to pocket more money for themselves. Elk Grove real estate sellers are no different!
In fact, as often as not, people selling their own homes overprice them. They’re hoping to find some “bargain-hunting” buyers who will be hoodwinked into believing they are saving money because there’s no agent involved. In addition, even if the home appears to be priced right, it may suffer from hidden defects. Buyers moving in from out of town to Elk Grove California are the most vulnerable to assessing the value of For Sale By Owners. The home may be a steal compared to house prices in their home town, but may not be a good deal here in Elk Grove California.

Elk Grove is a city in Sacramento County, California, located south of the state capital of Sacramento. The (U.S. Census' 2005 population estimates) list the city's population as 112,338. City-limit signs at the city's entrance, however, list the population as 130,609. Due to its rapid growth, Elk Grove has earned the title of the fastest growing city in the U.S. Elk Grove is the second-largest city in Sacramento County. The incorporated city boundaries are larger than the census-designated place boundaries set by the Census in 2000. Elk Grove was founded in 1850 as a stage stop. It is located about 15 miles south of historic Sutter’s Fort and thus became a crossroads for business, entertainment, mail service and agriculture, and acted as home base for gold miners in nearby communities. After it played its part in the early gold rush and statehood history in California, a close-knit community evolved with a distinctly rural and western lifestyle. -- Source: Wikipedia.com
