Frequently Asked Questions |

1. Do I need a broker to sell my apartment?
No. NYCbyOwner.com is giving you the same tools you need to market your apartment that a real estate broker would use. 95% of prospective buyers are using the Internet to search for a property before they will even go and take a look. By allowing prospective buyers to view your apartment on the Internet before actually visiting the property you can separate the shoppers from the interested buyers and eliminate a lot of people who would not be interested once inside. |

2. Why use NYCbyOwner.com? We are currently in one of the hottest real estate markets New Yorkers have ever seen. NYCbyOwner.com takes the middleman out of the picture and allows buyers and sellers to deal with each other directly. Here is how it works… NYCbyOwner.com acts as a 'Virtual Bulletin Board'. You complete a listing questionnaire on the Place an Ad page and write a short description of the apartment. The number of photos / owner provided floor plans included with your listing will be determined by the package you purchase. The listing will then be assigned a catalog number, which you will use when you advertise your home in the classified section of a newspaper, to direct buyers to NYCbyOwner.com where they can view your apartment. Potential buyers will also find NYCbyOwner.com advertised in the Sunday New York Times Classified Section and listed on the following major search engines… (search engine logos) We are not real estate brokers, therefore aside from our advertising fees, when you sell your property we receive no payments from either the buyer or the seller. |

5. Safety Tips
Remember you are opening your home to strangers. It is very important that you put your valuables out of plain site. Never let anyone look around your home on their own. Stay with prospective buyers as they tour your home. |
