Selling Real Estate On Craigslist


If you happen to be a real estate owner, Craigslist can help you immensely when it comes to selling land and property. The best part about Craigslist is that you do not need to pay any money to post an advertisement. In addition, you can re-post the advertisement on a weekly basis in case if you are not able to find a seller. Below you will find details of how to sell real estate through Craigslist.


In order to post your real estate listing, first thing that you need to do is to visit the website of Craigslist. Once there, you need to click on the post to classifieds. Click on the housing button. After that tick a box where it is mentioned “Are you interested in offering housing?”


To post an advertisement, it is quite important that you click on the link “Real Estate for Sale.” You also have an option of going for other categories including storage, parking, commercial and office. Finish the needed green fields for your advertisement such as a title, description and more importantly e-mail address where you want to receive details. Make sure that your advertisement consists of relevant fees that are applicable to the sale of your real estate.


If your main objective is to sell your real estate quicker, it is advisable that you put an image to your advertisement by clicking on the add image option that you are going to get at the time of posting an advertisement. To get a desired result, include colorful and right kind of descriptions related to your property. By following this route, you increase your chances of selling your property much more quickly. It is always a good option to enter details such as yard size, upgrades, square footage, parking accessibility, swimming pool and other features in your advertisement.


Buyers these days give preference to advertisements that are comprehensive in nature. But yes, it should be accurate; otherwise it can easily backfire on you. Your real estate advertisement should not contain semi-negative characteristics like limited view and busy street. In the initial stage, such things are not going to have an impact on the potential buyer and therefore your focus should be on depicting positive things regarding your property rather than negative one. If you manage to find a serious buyer through an advertisement, make sure that you show your property to him in person without any delay. You need to act quickly, often as soon as you get an email or phone call from a potential buyer.
