Going to be selling my house, and would like to do it myself rather than listing with an agent. Websites like forsalebyowner.com and FSBO.com advertise flat-fee listing "packages" that will place the listing on their own websites plus MLS (thereby getting it on Zillow, Trulia, Redfin, etc.).

Is the increased exposure of the broader listing worth it? If so, any advice on which website (forsalebyowner.com, FSBO.com, or other) is best to get the best marketing?

We used FSBO.com and sold in less than 30 days. I think the pkg was about $500. They did a nice job, advertised our open house which ended up being what sold it.

I used fsbobr.com and had 10 offers on it in 3 days.

I recently purchased an FSBO home. We first found it on facebook. The sellers created a facebook page and shared it. Someone suggested we "like" the page, and it went from there.

She also put a sign in the yard. I'm not aware that she used any listing service. FSBO listing services in NOLA aren't that good.
