What is a FizboBOX?

First, let’s define FIZBO?

FIZ•BO [Fizz•bo] -noun: A property owner selling on their own while using real estate tools normally reserved for Realtors®.

• FIZBO sellers often offer commission to buyer agents (typical range 2½% - 3½%) while reserving the right to sell without paying any commission.

• It is widely understood that FIZBO’s have a dramatic advantage over FSBO’s (for sale by owners) because of the numbers of buyers they attract.

Now, what’s in the BOX? These are the tools referenced above. They include:

• Multiple Listing Service (MLS),
• electronic lockbox,
• agent email campaigns,
• magazine advertisements,
• exposure on multiple websites that display real estate for sale,
• “Virtual Open House” tours,
• video tours,
• a more attractive yard sign,
• private voicemail and email accounts so you don’t get spammed,
• paperless transactions,
• professional photography,
• and much, much more!

If you can have access to all of these tools traditionally reserved for Realtors®, why not sell your home yourself and save thousands in commissions? FizboBOX makes it possible. Are you a Fizbo?
