When selling a property, what is the best and fastest way to sell?  There are several for sale by owner websites sellers can use to get their message out.  Every property will sell if it is priced right and buyers know about it.  I think that is without question, but what is best to get the word out?

Online real estate tours are becoming popular.  Realty Thoughts has done a review of three real estate video services that can make an impact in 2007.  Currently many individuals and real estate professionals are using YouTube.

Real Estate Agents have found very effective ways to sell real estate.  They are the professionals.  Since success leaves clues, I would suggest real estate investors attempting to sell their own properties in ways that mimic what has been successful for agents.  Listing the property with the MLS, holding open houses, networking with other agents and sharing commissions.

The technics that agents use can be modified in one form or another to work for investors too.  There are flat rate brokers who will list the property in the MLS on your behalf, you can hold open houses, you can network with agents and other investors to find buyers.

Here are a couple of tips that have worked for me:

1. Post your property for sale on eBay.  There are many buyers that have first been exposed to properties on eBay.  One can get exposure for their property to potential buyers from around the world.  Ebay Real Estate.

2. Yahoo Real Estate Groups are an effective way to network with other investors and find buyers. Yahoo Real Estate Groups.

Best of luck in selling your property, and remember, “success leaves clues.”

There is a company selling Virtual Real Estate.  When I think of Virtual Real Estate I think of a domain name that one buys to develop a website or hold to appreciate in value.  A domain name was my concept of Virtual Real Estate until I viewed this video.  Appearently, this company is making a lot of money.  Does this concept have a place along side the real estate market?  There are already Virtual Real Estate Agents…Amazing.
