LADERA RANCH, Calif.—Fizber® (Fizer.com), the industry-leading self-directed online real estate platform which provides for sale by owner (FSBO) home sellers with the comprehensive tools and resources they need to list, market, and sell their home online, today released a list of the top 10 U.S. markets where the company is currently seeing the largest number of homeowners list and sell their home FSBO, and saving thousands of dollars in the process.
The top 10 markets, as well as the average home list price on Fizber.com for each area, are:
1. New York – $621,063
2. Chicago – $373,085
3. Houston – $355,344

9. Portland, OR – $383,899
10. Nashville, TN – $343,706
Many home owners in these markets say the biggest reason they choose to list and sell their home themselves is because new online technology tools, such as those offered by Fizber, now allow them to do a lot of the same things a real estate agent would do to market and sell their home. Thus, many of these home owners are choosing to self-direct the listing of their home instead of hiring a full-time real estate professional to do the work for them.
