Name: Paul N. - Repeat Customer

Comments: The service you provide has been the best way for me to sell a property. It gets listed on the local MLS and yet provides a way to save money by selling direct to a buyer. I like the flexibility of the method and it has proven effective for me.

Name: Jim Jaqua

Comments: First, we sold the property to a person who responded the day after we listed.  Second, the process of getting listed was much more complicated and continuous than I expected with a lot of back and forth. Third,and most important, Greg and Ronel were responsive and helped me get things right whenever I had a question.

Name: Carl Miller

Comments: We sold our home ourselves using By Owner Advertising.  They were very helpful and the process was straight forward and easy to create our MLS listing.  I honestly don't think our home would have sold if it weren't listed on the MLS by By Owner Advertising, it made our (for sale by owner) home visible to buyers.  We would definitely use By Owner Advertising again! Thanks! View Listing

Name: Tim McGuill

Comments: My decision to select By Owner Advertising was primarily based on their  "professional" product offerings.  MLS listing services are easy to purchase; however one that includes a Realty comparable signs, fliers, and lock boxes is not the norm. And beyond product offerings, Greg and his staff exceeded every one of my expectations throughout the selling process.  I had a unique property which took some time to sell and I received prompt responses and actions when submitting  changes.  Using By Owner Advertising saved me ~$15k!  I'd gladly use their services again.

Name: Suzanne Cook

Comments: Greg and Ronel with By Owner Advertising were just wonderful to work with through our sale.  They really went the extra mile for me as I had alot of changes to my listing through the process and they were very responsive and helpful with the whole listing process.  I thought it was an incredible value for the service I received.  In this market, it really helped to get a discount when we had to sell our house for such a discount. Thank you Greg and Ronel, you were great to work with! Sincerely, Suzanne Cook

Name: Lisa Davidson

Comments: What I like about your program is the flexibility it provides.  We wanted to sell our home quickly, but didn't want the high cost of using a realtor.  Your service helped us accomplish our goals.  We had a full price offer within a week of listing, which is unusual in the current market.  Thank you so much!

Name: Lisa T

Comments: I had my house on the market for 3 months and it did not sell. I listed it with By Owner Advertising under their silver package and reduced the price by my agent's commission and had several offers with in 2 weeks. Now my house is sold and because the buyer had no agent I got more cash in pocket then I would have if my agent had sold it even though I lowered the price. I would recommend trying if you don't sell you can always hire a full service agent latter on. The cost is really minimal compared to what you will pay a full service agent.

Name: Greg Ornduff

Comments: We heard about By Owner Advertising from a friend. We listed and sold our house in 25 days! Greg Messick and team provided the necessary tools and support that we needed to sell our own home. Excellent communication and very patient with new sellers.

Name: James Wu

Comments: Great service. I sold for full asking price which was quite a feat in this real estate market. I would reccomend to anyone who likes to save some money.

Name: Doug Spencer

Comments: We were nervouse about selling our home on our own, specially in such a tough market, but we had to because we couldn't afford to pay a 6% commission. We sold our home in a little over a month. The service we received on By Owner Advertising made it easy to sell our home. I would recommend them to anyone.

Name: Rollie White

Comments: The folks at By Owner Advertising did a great job helping us sell our property. We had put the place up completely by owner, offering a courtesy to Broker, and got very few calls and inquiries. A week later, we listed it via By Owner Advertising with a low flat fee and immediately had 20+ showings in three days, and our full price buyer made an offer the third day. This is in a "Buyer's Market" with average market times over 50+ days. Greg Messick was extremely helpful and very responsive to our e-mailed questions about how the process works. The website they helped us create was beautiful, and being listed in the MLS made all the difference in this challenging market. If we ever have to sell another house, we'll be sure to use By Owner Advertising again!

Name: David & Dixie Woodall

Comments: I would recommend your program to anyone who feels he or she can market their home themeselves. There is no reason to pay a listing agent 3% for putting a sign in your yard. Most buyers come from your sign or another realty firm. With by owneroregon.com you get a professional sign, lock box and listing in the mls service for 1 year for a set fee.

Name: Pam Fournier

Comments: Your firm was very helpful. I would definitely use your flat fee listing service again and will recommend you to anyone who wants to sell their own house. Thanks, Pam

Name: Kim Fitts

Comments: Hi Greg, Your listing of our home was just what we needed to get qualified buyers interested and looking. We sold our home in two weeks after the listing and had a showing at least once a day and sometimes more... Bill and I definately recommend your services. Thanks so much !

Name: Linda Rein

Comments: I was able to sell my home quickly. This is a great service for someone who is comfortable doing the leg work and negotiating themselves.

Name: Bill Roberts Jr.

Comments: Greg's company did exactly what it said it would do. They listed my home on several websites, including the RMLS site. They listed the property on a timely basis and everything on the listing was exactly as I had indicated on the input sheet. Greg's website to develop a home sale flyer was also very helpful. Greg and his office were responsive. When I called or emailed, they got back to me in short order. Good job. We accepted an offer on our home in 20 days after it was listed.

Name: Randy Gould

Comments: My fiancee and I both used your service to sell our homes. It was real easy as long as you took the initiative to market your home yourself. For my home, I advertised online on the website and also put ads in the saturday paper for sunday open houses etc. My fiancee's house...We marketed similarly...Her house was more attractive and hence we had alot of traffic...I was pretty up front during the open houses that I was not a realtor but a personal representative. things went well...My fiancee got more than she was asking... We did deal with a realtor and hence paid a commission but it was well worth it. I would recommend this service for people that are comfortable dealing with people, and who are willing to take the initive to do it on your own. We saved about $16,000 total.

Name: Kelly Kamhoot

Comments: After doing a lot of research I found that byowneroregon.com provided the best value. Our home sold in about 2 months after listing and this service saved us $6500 in realtor fees and provided the potential to save even more if someone approached us without representation. I would recommend this service and use it again!
