Time Based Transparent Pricing

Yes. The definition of a private sale is the transaction, or the sale is between two people directly without a real estate agent, but conducted by solicitors or licensed conveyancors.

In the olden days, a private sale would never hit the open market as the property would be sold to a neighbour, a family member or some other direct deal.  

Unfortunately, a private sale is regarded as inferior to a real estate agent. FiSBO® is proving this to be a fallacy.

It's the perfect mash-up of traditional For Sale By Owner spirit with a dash of digital magic - we call it For Internet Sale By Owner..

Our visionary, Ben Keehan, spent half a decade immersing himself in the world of real estate sales before crafting FiSBO, New Zealand's pioneering hybrid real estate platform. FiSBO is the culmination of marketing genius, cutting-edge technology, streamlined real estate processes, and a dynamic team, representing a genuine alternative to the conventional real estate experience.

Ben embarked on a mission to dissect and rebuild the traditional real estate framework, ensuring it benefits all involved. By merging premier traditional marketing strategies with the latest digital tools to engage potential buyers and introducing a transparent, real-time online auction system that welcomes conditional buyers, we've sparked unprecedented competition among sellers.

This innovation has led to a service that's not only significantly more cost-effective for sellers but also creates a win-win situation for all parties involved.

Purchasing a home has never been easier. Once you pop your details into our online openhome register, we'll zip all the essential info straight to your inbox to get you started with FiSBO.

Dive into a treasure trove of free tools waiting for you on FiSBO, and don't hesitate to drop a direct line to the seller for any nitty-gritty questions - all through our secure messaging, of course.

Feeling a spark of interest? That's your cue to fill out a "BiD" form. Select "Make a BiD" enter your details, your offer's conditions, and the price you're thinking of. It's like sending a little hello to let the seller know you're seriously considering their space.

Hit 'submit' and watch the magic happen. Our system immediately alerts any buyer who's shown interest in the property, making your bid visible in the public listing - in dollar signs, so it's crystal clear. And if the competition heats up, buyers can up their game with higher offers.

Sellers, you're in the driver's seat now. Feel free to negotiate with any prospective buyer. Once you're nodding in agreement, we'll whisk away the details to your solicitors, paving the way for a smooth sales & purchase agreement - keeping the legalities in check and everyone protected.

If the thought of managing your own open homes seems like a mountain too steep to climb, fret not! We're here to lend a hand. Our vibrant team of marketing consultants is all set to take the reins of your viewing management and open homes, employing our dynamic, tried-and-true systems.

The real question we should be asking is, "Why isn't your house selling?"

Imagine diving into the market with the fresh perspective of a buyer and pricing your home in a way that aligns perfectly with the competitive landscape, all thanks to the rich insights from various market data sources. With this approach, there's virtually no reason for your home to linger on the market.

From what we've gathered over the years, a few things can stall the sale of a home. If a seller sets the price above market expectations, finding a buyer becomes a challenge. A lack of flexibility in negotiations? That's a surefire way to deter potential buyers. And holding out for a dream price that's not grounded in reality? Unfortunately, that means the house might just sit waiting for a buyer who'll never come.

With a blend of innovation, helpful guidance, and genuine enthusiasm, we encourage sellers to embrace a more optimistic and positive outlook. Selling your home should be an exciting journey, and with the right approach, it can be a smooth and rewarding experience. Let's work together to make your home sale a success.
