Very valuable service, run with a high touch

I've recommended Hauseit to at least a dozen people I know (sometimes just met) that are selling their home. It took us about two days of going down the FSBO path before we realized the shortcomings: couldn't list on major real estate websites, ceaselessly inundated with calls by brokers cagily suggesting they had buyers, but really just trying to sign us. Interestingly, Hauseit cold-texted me about their service and, though I was somewhat suspicious at first, they were very engaged in answering all my questions and concerns. The site was a bit rough around the edges and had trouble processing payment, but the folks I chatted with at Hauseit were very on top of all my questions and never pushy about upselling services. Honestly, after two home purchases and one sale, it was hard to believe there are folks in this industry that work purely for a seller/owner's interests, without ulterior motives or an eye on a fatter commission. So I recommend the service not just because it help us secure our sale without a huge seller's agent commission but because, frankly, the folks at Hauseit personify the consumer-focused industry that real estate *should* be -- and that I hope they contribute to turning it into.

Hi Michael, We feel privileged to have had the opportunity to work with you and demonstrate the value of our platform in helping New York City home sellers reduce or entirely eliminate broker commissions. You may be surprised to know that home sellers in London pay roughly 1.7% in real estate commissions for the services of a full-service listing agent while NYC home owners pay on average 6% in total real estate commissions. This is precisely the reason why we feel that our platform is the right thing to do for sellers in NYC and the only way to ultimately bring NYC's commission model more in line with the more reasonable (and less expensive) approach taken by the residential brokerage industry in London! Sincerely, Team Hauseit https://twitter.com/hauseit

Hauseit in NYC
I am pleased with the Hauseit team and the service. I tried the FSBO option (with the intention of using their full service option if showing becomes too much work for me). It worked! My listing is in contract and I will be saving close to 3% commission. They are very responsive and pleasant to work with. I would definitely recommend their service (and I will probably go with the full service option next time).

Going forward, if you consider buying another property in NYC we highly suggest you take advantage of a buyer broker commission rebate to save money on your purchase.

Dear Ganna - thanks for your support, and likewise we had a wonderful experience working with you on your co-op sale over the past few months! Since you are now a successful NYC FSBO seller, we think you may enjoy reading this article 'The Biz of the FSBO' about other seller's experiences listing by owner in NYC: http://observer.com/2016/09/the-biz-of-the-fsbo/ Kind Regards, Team Hauseit https://www.hauseit.com

Would use them again in a heartbeat
Bottom line: if you have the time and energy, using Hauseit is a no-brainer. You can pay yourself tens of thousands of dollars by saving commission on a broker. If you're selling your property in NYC, you'll be doing all of the hard work anyway - cleaning and staging the property so that's ready for photography and open houses. You know the property better than anyone and can talk it up. But if you hire a broker, you're out 6% and the alignment of interests are terrible - they want a sale at any price, not at the right price for you. With Hauseit, you can list for less than $1000. That's the listing itself, photography, and a floorplan - everything you need. Once the listing hits the MLS and StreetEasy, all the buyers brokers see it immediately and you'll get inbound requests from brokers AND un-attached, individual buyers. If you're lucky enough to find an un-attached buyer (no buyer's broker), you pay 0% commission. If you have the energy to handle showings and open houses on your own, you can pay yourself tens (or hundreds) of thousands of dollars for the effort. For me, it was absolutely worth it and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Hello Brian, Thanks for the thoughtful and honest review! We are so glad that you gave us a shot and didn't cave under pressure and pay 6% by hiring a traditional New York City listing agent. Nobody is more knowledgable about a property than the owner him or herself, so your sale experience will be second to none provided you market the listing correctly (NYC Flat Fee RLS/MLS Service) and enjoy showing the unit to interested parties and negotiating!

Definitely worth a try!
I tried FSBO service with Hausesit in the spring of 2016. Then I got too busy to show the unit myself, so I switched to their full service. It worked! It is so much better paying 4% (1% to my broker and 3% to the buyer's broker) than 6% with a traditional broker! I would definitely recommend their service. The communication was very efficient and professional.

Dear Miwako, Congratulations on your successful condo sale! Our team mentioned that you were a real pleasure to work with during the sale process, so thank you for being such a wonderful counterparty. As you alluded to, it's especially important in the case of selling a condo that you are always available show the unit. Unlike co-ops which cater mostly to home buyers who live in the city, many condo buyers are out of town investors who have limited time in the city to view units and make decisions. Your changes of a successful sale are materially decreased every time you reschedule or cancel a condo showing. We designed our 1% full-service listing option for busy NYC home sellers who understand the convenience and need of having a full-service agent but who aren't onboard with paying 6% in commissions for that privilege.

We are immensely thankful for your kind words and support! When you are ready to make a purchase again in NYC, please remember to take advantage of a NYC buyer agent commission rebate. You can think of the buyer rebate as an automatic way to save money on your purchase. Because of the high median sale price in NYC, buyer agent commission rebates can be substantial ($15,000 or more).

My goal was sell my NYC co-op without paying excessive broker fees. Because I had the time and energy to show my apartment whenever necessary, the Hauseit team, for me was perfect. For a very reasonable flat fee, Hauseit got me listed on all the major listing outlets, and screened all email and voicemail inquiries, gauging the potential interest of buyers by requesting info from the buyers' brokers. When potential buyers wanted to see the apartment, whether individually or at the open houses, I would show the apartment. The selling process went smoothly, and I saved $35,000 in broker fees. Definitely would recommend Hauseit team. Rob

Hi Rob - it's always a pleasure when we are able to work with well-informed and motivated co-op sellers such as yourself. Selling a co-op without a traditional listing agent will always be more complex than the process for a traditional condo, but as you've demonstrated it's entirely doable if you do your homework before listing! We always suggest that our NYC co-op FSBO sellers read these articles before listing: Sample Co-op Board Application: https://www.hauseit.com/sample-coop-board-application/ Sample NYC Co-op House Rules: https://www.hauseit.com/sample-nyc-coop-house-rules/ How to Sell a Co-op Fast: https://www.hauseit.com/how-to-sell-a-co-op-fast/ How Do You Sell Your NYC Apartment Without a Broker? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmWWC_SqlrQ
