Selling my lot

I would try selling myself first. Put a sign on your lot with a number that someone can reach you. IF it is a newer sub and has traffic already you shouldn't have much trouble.

Can you put a for sale sign on lots , some of the higher end neighborhoods don't allow that

subdivision?

If the neighborhood is in high demand, you should have no trouble going the fsbo route.

We're always looking for a lot(s). Not our preferred area right now, but that's a good subdivision. Good luck. Personally, I'd just slap a for sale sign on it. Shouldn't be too hard to get market value right now.

I had someone offer me $125k about 8 months ago but did not want to sell at the time. Sounds like you didn't buy a lake lot, they were never that cheap. The prices have went up a good bit in the last few years. The last lake lots were selling for $120k 1.5 years ago.

Right I don't have a lake lot. Just had no idea they would sell for that much, even the lake lots. The neighborhood has really taken off since we built 3 years ago. Can't believe it took off that quickly.

This is such a huge misconception. Especially a vacant lot. Is your plan to simply hope that people are randomly driving around calling signs in vacant lots? (Hint - this does not happen often)

People try to save the money, come out of pocket about $300+ for the listing -- and then after months and months, end up with a realtor anyways.

Honestly, many realtors make a fortune simply calling FSBOs, and catching them when they are just tired of dealing with all the hassle.

A realtor many times can actually negotiate a better price, so you end up with the same actually net gain, and 90,000 % less headache and legal issues.

Came out to $143 per sq ft including the lot. We used the developer as our builder. My house is about 3100 sq ft, a house a few doors down from me just sold. Same sq ft and not on a lake. It sold for about $80k more than what we built ours for. And it was a spec home. Crazy how much the prices have gone up since we built a few years ago.

We looked at a corner lot in there that was fsbo, about 10 months ago. Yes, people do drive around neighborhoods they are interested in. Seller wanted $125k and wouldn't even listen to an offer of $120k, thought it was her "son's lot".
