Within these tough economic times and the ever increasing fees demanded by Estate agents to sell your property whilst reducing their advertising activity, it is no wonder that people are seeking alte
ative methods of property selling such as FSBO.
When selling your property on an FSBO (for sale by owner) basis visibility is crucial, not only just in terms of the particular FSBO website you choose to advertise your property with but also with the aid of a quality sale board displayed outside of your property.

Sale boards are by far one of the most effective ways of generating sales inquiries for your property. If you don't have a board prominently displayed, you could be missing out on an unbelievable amount of opportunities to sell your home. Remember, it is still very common for buyers to scout the areas they are interested in for any 'For Sale' boards. If you haven’t got a board outside, how will they have any idea that your property is for sale?

Even if you live in a small cul-de-sac within a small village, you should not under estimate the possibly of any of your neighbours connections, or a chance drive-by potential buyer who is looking for a property in your area.
It may even be somebody walking their dog past your home in the morning, they may not be interested in it themselves but there is chance they may know somebody that might be.

Sale boards vary greatly in quality, size and price. Always go for the best you can afford – after all, it is an advertisement for you. Using the proven format of Estate and Letting Agents boards, try to acquire a board that is 800mm x 600mm and constructed from Correx board and has been professionally printed.
Expect to pay anything from 40 (€ $ £) to 125 (€ $ £). You can receive a FREE sale board to the above quality and specification when you list your property with Ocean Wave Properties.
