Subject: [5-DayForum] Wording of signs and flyers
Message-ID: <af1b5.1ddb177a.38e64ae5@aol.com>

Jeannette,
 
On the signs, I put the ad word for word out of the book.  Hand  written 
black on white.  Easy to read the caps part fast if you are driving  by.  I 
did not use flyers, but others on here did with great success.   I think here 
you don't need as quick of a read, so a couple of GREAT pictures  and list 
of most salient features would probably work well.  I also like  the "choose 
your neighbor" slogan.  Makes people think of others if they  are not 
interested.
 
Hope this helps!
 
Janet

Janet,

Great info! Thanks.

Would you share more about  the actual wording on your flyers and signs? I 
am kind of at a loss at the  moment about what to include and what not to 
include. Your experience and  insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeannette  Freeman

>From  what I have seen here, Bill turn your head and plug your ears, the 
most  responses come from signs and flyers.  For the most part newspaper and  
advertising on Craig's will only bring you in a few.  I'd go with the  
Craig's advertising as it is free and maybe in your area, there are a lot of  
buyers on that venue.  About 20 signs seems to work well, flyers in a  fair 
radius advertising "choose your neighbor."  One person even had a  very good 
response from having a garage sale and handing them out.  I was  surprised 
during my sale that there was so little from newspapers.  Maybe  I'm getting 
"older."  Craig's brought me nothing.  I received 23  responses from hand 
written signs stuck all over the place with in a mile  radius and will next 
time include grocery bulletin boards with phone number  pull tabs.  That has 
also seemed to work well.  Beware, there is a  person on this list that 
advocates a web site and recommends everyone use that  sight.  I have a feeling it 
might be self s!
erving.

Ok,  now..... you will get more great advice regarding avenues of promoting 
your  sale from others in this forum.  And most with be extremely  valuable.

Greatest of luck in this process, and please come back with  questions and 
progress.  We are all rooting for  you!

Janet

Boy, that one is a toughie.  Internet is still plausible as well as  the 
chose your neighbor flyers.  Won't take long to hand those out.   <wink>  I 
would still do signs in the city, but pick malls, large  shopping strips and 
grocery stores.  And maybe pull tab flyers inside the  grocery stores on 
their bulletin boards.  You might want to hit a real  estate section in a major 
paper.  Who knows, it may work in your  area.  I just would not spend a lot 
on it.  I think I received 3  responses from three publications.  One was 
from the local paper the others  from free papers of what is going on around 
town.  A couple of people on  here used a bulletin board in the nearest city, 
but I never heard a response as  to how well that worked.  If I missed it, 
maybe someone on here can  remember.  I have a good memory, but it's not a 
steel trap!
 
Great luck and keep us posted!
 
Janet

We are about 5 miles outside a small town that is 45 miles from the

Or would newspapers be the better  route?

I bought the book and not much I've seen, so far, covers mobile homes.
Mobile homes are popular in Florida. My question(s):
1. Has anyone tried the 5day method with mobile homes?
2. I plan on getting things together and trying the 5 day method to sell my
one acre small farm with a mobile home using the 5day method - any
suggestions because it is a mobile home with land?

Thanks,
Eme

Hi Nicolas,

 

Saw your posting on the 5-day forum. I'd love to get a copy of your Excel
bid tracking. You're exactly right, I'd much rather do it on Excel than by
paper.

 

I'm holding my very first round robin this weekend. Wish me luck! Much
obliged in advance. 

 

Regards,

Eme,

People have used the 5-Day Method with mobile homes.  They sell, but 
don't bring much money because mobile homes tend to depreciate in value.

The land is another story.  If that mobile home were in Greenwich, Ct. 
where I live, it would bring a pretty penny because land here is still 
so valuable.  The mobile home would be scrapped, and a new home would be 
built on the land.  (This happens with 5 year old 10,000 square foot 
stick built homes as well.)

But land is local, and you must know what your land would be worth to 
you if you were a buyer.  Offer the land and mobile home for 1/2 what 
you think your land is worth.  If you fail to get 25 responses from 
Craig's list by Friday night, pull the plug on the sale--your land is 
worth much less than you thought.

Eme, 



I live in Florida as well. When using this method, I don't make a distintion between a home and a mobile home. The value of a mobile home will be lower, but this method should still get you a buyer at the market price exactly the same way it does on a conventional home.

a real estate contract is written, etc.

Janet,

Great! That's what I was thinking after I thought about it a couple of days. I talked to my husband about the flyers and we don't think it will be worth the effort in our area, but I can see how it would be effective in some areas, just depends on your neighborhood.

I bought a sample sign and will write it out this weekend as a template before doing 20-25. Our sale is in two weeks and I'm getting excited!

Thanks again,

and i want to delete it.  Can you please delete my posting, if that is
possible.  The subject is "What is a response?"  I just posted it a little

Realtors can't? . it is against their ethic codes.? They cannot have auctions.? But if they put the property in a partnership( even verbal) then their best friend or brother can hold the auction.? The reason I know this is because I have done two " 5 day auctions " for Realtors !!! 



And both homes sold above listed prices!!!!!!

Thanks, Mary,

My guess is that men don't want to buy a gun this way from a woman.  
It's just a guess.  There aren't a whole lot of 3-Day Gun Sales around 
New York City.

The only reason it got into the book at all was that I heard from so 
many people who had successfully run 3-Day Gun Sales to test the method.

But now that you mention it, they were all men.

Thanks for taking the time to post this --

I do not recommend a 3 day sale for a gun.  Has anyone else had experience with this type of sale?

Dear Forum,

I will be out of Town for 3 weeks starting Sunday, holding together the 
Forum as best I can, from time to time.

If you want to be sure to post, sign up as a member early, and have me 
clear your moderator flag so you can post directly to the list without 
first going through me. Just send a message to the forum after becoming 
a member saying in the Subject Line: "Please Clear my Moderator Flag" .  
In the body of the message give me some idea of who you are, and why you 
want to join the Forum, and I will look for messages with this Subject 
Line and Clear them as quickly as I can.  After that, you can talk to 
everyone on the Forum directly, whenever you like.

The Spam has gone up sharply, so I won't clear anybody's moderator flag 
without first getting the sense that they are someone who belongs in 
this Forum--this takes time.

I think I blocked the sender of the attached email, or something--I 
don't have the time to figure it out.

Please follow up his email, and let me know, on the Forum, if he is 
someone we want to hear from on a regular basis.

Thanks,

Bill Effros
List Administrator

I'm sorry but I disagree. You're REALTOR friends are mistaken if they feel that a 5-day sale is 
against their Code of Ethics. I would be interested in knowing what CoE article they feel they are violating. The important thing to understand about a 
5-Day Sale is that it is NOT an auction. It is a technique for generating a high 
level of interest in your home thus creating a multiple offer situation.

Many REALTORS monitor this forum and have successfully used this method to sell homes for themselves and their clients.

I have to chime in with Dac and with Tom - Realtors around the country have
been conducting sales similar to the one described in Bill's books for many
years.  For us, it is, as Dac describes,".a technique for generating a high
level of interest." in a very short amount of time.  

 

Actually, what raises the ethics question, as well as violates state
statutes, is the deceit involved in using the technique that Dave describes.

I'm sorry but I disagree. You're REALTOR friends are mistaken if they feel
that a 5-day sale is against their Code of Ethics. I would be interested in
knowing what CoE article they feel they are violating. The important thing
to understand about a 5-Day Sale is that it is NOT an auction. It is a
technique for generating a high level of interest in your home thus creating
a multiple offer situation.

Many REALTORS monitor this forum and have successfully used this method to
sell homes for themselves and their clients.

Realtors can't  . it is against their ethic codes.  They cannot have
auctions.  But if they put the property in a partnership( even verbal) then
their best friend or brother can hold the auction.  The reason I know this
is because I have done two " 5 day auctions " for Realtors!!!

 

And both homes sold above listed prices!!!!!!

If you want to be sure to post, sign up as a member  early, and have me 
clear your moderator flag so you can post directly to the  list without first

saying in the Subject Line: "Please Clear my Moderator Flag"  .  In the body

the Forum, and I will look for messages with this Subject  Line and Clear 
them as quickly as I can.  After that, you can talk to  everyone on the Forum 
directly, whenever you like.

The Spam has gone up  sharply, so I won't clear anybody's moderator flag 
without first getting the  sense that they are someone who belongs in this

I think I blocked the sender of the attached email, or  something--I don't

Thanks, Mary,

My guess is that men  don't want to buy a gun this way from a woman.  It's 
just a guess.   There aren't a whole lot of 3-Day Gun Sales around New York 
City.

The  only reason it got into the book at all was that I heard from so many 
people  who had successfully run 3-Day Gun Sales to test the method.

But now  that you mention it, they were all men.

Thanks for taking the time to  post this --

following sound like  generalizations, but in our experience, this is what happened.
1.  Many men wait until the  day of the inspection to call.
2.  Most of those who called did  not show up.
3.  It didn't seem like the men  wanted to mess with an auction; they just 
wanted to buy the  gun.
I do not recommend a 3 day sale for a  gun.  Has anyone else had experience 
with this type of  sale?

Sorry Agents,? Maybe the two agents I worked with just didn't think it was ok .? I have only Flipped over 2200 homes 

and I really think in a normal market or even now that the first time home range is the easiest to sale on a "5 day sale". 



Higher priced homes are still hard to have the buyers due to the fact it is harder for them to qualify.

The only reason it got into the book at all was that I heard from so many people who had successfully run 3-Day Gun Sales to test the method. 

But now that you mention it, they were all men. 

Thanks for taking the time to post this --

To the Forum/Janet:

It is not SPAM, just updating another option to help the forum. This is now on the same level as Postlets, Backpage, 

So again, no spam, I am not going to continue to promote it via this site and please keep in mind I initially sent the email to Bill directly and once again he magically was unable to answer me directly.

No worries, best of success to all.

Dear Forum, 

I will be out of Town for 3 weeks starting Sunday, holding together the Forum as best I can, from time to time. 

If you want to be sure to post, sign up as a member early, and have me clear your moderator flag so you can post directly to the list without first going through me. Just send a message to the forum after becoming a member saying in the Subject Line: "Please Clear my Moderator Flag" .? In the body of the message give me some idea of who you are, and why you want to join the Forum, and I will look for messages with this Subject Line and Clear them as quickly as I can.? After that, you can talk to everyone on the Forum directly, whenever you like. 

The Spam has gone up sharply, so I won't clear anybody's moderator flag without first getting the sense that they are someone who belongs in this Forum--this takes time. 

I think I blocked the sender of the attached email, or something--I don't have the time to figure it out. 

Please follow up his email, and let me know, on the Forum, if he is someone we want to hear from on a regular basis. 

Thanks,

Message-ID: <20100416014253.KKQOG.194438.root@hrndva-web18-z01>

Greetings! I've asked several questions over the last few months in preparation for our sale this weekend. Thanks to all for their support and advice!

I am happy to report that as of Thursday at 8:30 p.m. I have answered 22 phone calls in response to our advertising. We posted 21 signs in high traffic areas around our home, put an ad in our (small) local newspaper and that of a larger town 25 miles away, and an Internet ad on a popular local classified site serving the area (Craig's list isn't effective here).

I know we are a long way from having a signed contract, but I am SO excited to report that we have so many phone calls and it's not even Friday yet! This is our first time selling a house by any method and we are very excited about how this is all going to turn out.

Thanks again! And thank you, Bill, for writing this book.

Realtors,
I am a licensed Realtor in Boston, MA and I am putting my personal home up for sale using the 5 day program. Having access to the MLS,
I am wondering if any other Realtors out there use the MLS to advertise their 5 day sale? Or will it just attract a lot of phone calls from agents?

Please let me know your experiences and thoughts with this! Thank you!

Subject: [5-DayForum] Sale this weekend in Port Arthur, Texas!

Greetings! I've asked several questions over the last few months in preparation for our sale this weekend. Thanks to all for their support and advice!

I am happy to report that as of Thursday at 8:30 p.m. I have answered 22 phone calls in response to our advertising. We posted 21 signs in high traffic areas around our home, put an ad in our (small) local newspaper and that of a larger town 25 miles away, and an Internet ad on a popular local classified site serving the area (Craig's list isn't effective here).

I know we are a long way from having a signed contract, but I am SO excited to report that we have so many phone calls and it's not even Friday yet! This is our first time selling a house by any method and we are very excited about how this is all going to turn out.

Thanks again! And thank you, Bill, for writing this book.

Actually, I don't know. For my own convenience I put my phone number on all pieces of advertising. I started to ask people where they read the ad, but realized that would detract from my own goal of selling my home, so I stopped. 

Sorry I don't have an answer!

Well, things didn't go as we had hoped. Our highest bid is $22,000. We thought it would go for $30-35K. We paid $25K for it three years ago and with all the expenses we had selling it (including plane ticket and rental car for my husband to return for this weekend), can't let it go for less than that. 

My husband is talking to our high bidder and breaking the news to her. Hopefully she can come up with something and we can make it work for both of us.

We are thinking that possibly we put too low of price in our advertising and that hurt us. Any thoughts? We listed it as $14,500 (or Best Offer, you know how the ad goes), but are thinking we may have been better off with $19,500. What do you think?

In the meantime we are considering other options--keep it as rental property (something we're not opposed to, but we live 16 hours away, means hiring someone closer to do on-site stuff for us), sell it traditionally (not my first choice), doing something with it for 6-12 months and then trying to sell it again with a higher starting price--I am really curious if that would have changed the final outcome. We do have options.

We are bummed. We (of course) were hoping for a nice profit on the property. We've already relocated to be near family and we hoping to be free of the property there soon.

Oh, well.

Jeannette,
 
So sorry things didn't go as you had hoped.  Putting selling costs  into 
the mix really isn't fair.  Additionally, apparently in your market  property 
values have not increased in the past 3 years.  I guess you could  always 
rent it monthly and list it on FSBO.com.  I had a property that the  highest 
bid was $135K, and then turned around and listed it on FSBO and received  an 
offer of $150K.  Just took a few months longer, which with no mortgage  
wasn't a big deal.  Timing is so crucial with this method.  Maybe a  few months 
from now, your market will improve as well and you can ask for  more.  FYI, 
your starting bid doesn't matter.  It's there to draw  interest.  It's not 
suppose to be an indicator of what you will ultimately  be offered for your 
property.  I wish you the greatest of luck in whatever  you plan to do with 
this property in the future.
 
Janet

and that hurt us. Any thoughts? We listed it as $14,500 (or Best  Offer, you 
know how the ad goes), but are thinking we may have been better off  with 
$19,500. What do you think?

In the meantime we are considering  other options--keep it as rental 
property (something we're not opposed to, but  we live 16 hours away, means hiring 
someone closer to do on-site stuff for  us), sell it traditionally (not my 
first choice), doing something with it for  6-12 months and then trying to 
sell it again with a higher starting price--I  am really curious if that 
would have changed the final outcome. We do have  options.

We are bummed. We (of course) were hoping for a nice profit on  the 
property. We've already relocated to be near family and we hoping to be  free of 
the property there soon.

Oh, well.

Sell it to the girl now. If you paid 25k and she offered 22k take it and run. Market is not getting any better any time soon. Write off difference on taxes, take the loss and carry it forward for next years taxes, between what you paid plus expenses on it and what you sell it for. Do it now before you loose buyer.

Well, things didn't go as we had hoped. Our highest bid is $22,000. We thought 
t would go for $30-35K. We paid $25K for it three years ago and with all the 
xpenses we had selling it (including plane ticket and rental car for my husband 
o return for this weekend), can't let it go for less than that. 
My husband is talking to our high bidder and breaking the news to her. Hopefully 
he can come up with something and we can make it work for both of us.

Update--

Well, over the last 24 hours we've tried to figure out what to do. My husband had the day in Port Arthur before catching an early evening flight back home so he did what he could there before he left.

We decided to check out a couple options. Got a realtor involved and asked some questions, after some research her thought was to list it for $35K, expect $30K, and for us to walk away with $27K after fees. Average time on market for our area is currently 109 days. 

My husband also called three property management companies to find out how that would work if we used them to rent it for us and take care of it. Like I mentioned before, we liked the idea of rental property but not being so far from it; but we'd never looked into what having someone else manage it for us would involve. A lady came and looked at the house and talked to my husband and they recommended renting it for significantly more than we would have been happy with. Our agreement with them would be for a year, so I think that is what we are going to do. If it doesn't pan out we can always sell it then. Maybe the market would be more to our liking at that point. 

And, hey, owning rental property is another way to get rich, huh?! So, onto our next real estate adventure. 

We are glad we did the 5-day method for several reasons. I wouldn't have wanted for the house to be sitting on the market for six months before realizing we weren't going to get what we wanted out of it. That could have been six months of lost rental income. And I have every intention of using the 5-day method next time we go to sell a home. ( . . . unless we decide to make our millions via rental property . . .) 

Anyway, thanks for the advice! I really do appreciate it.

Warmly, Jeannette

Yes. the 5-day sale is a marketing system - you are talking about financing, 
which is the same no matter how you come by your buyer.
Right now you might want to consider a land contract. If you can get a 
contract signed before the end of April, the buyer may qualify for the 
federal money, which can be your down payment. Then you don't have to 
consider yourself a landlord, but the bank! If you have a mortgage you can 
sell the property for a bit more, and charge monthly payments a bit higher 
than your mortgage payment. It is a lot less "fussy" than a lease option - 
you have no responsibility for repairs, and if they don't pay you can evict 
and do it all over again. (make sure your contract says this.) You will need 
a lawyer to draw up the paperwork. We have done this with two houses, both 
of which are 800 miles away from us, and we are very happy.
Good luck
Rosemarie

Message-ID: <020d01cae005$6a0a7910$3e1f6b30$@net>

We tried the 5 Day Sale last week using the internet (Craigslist etc) to
post our listing in San Diego.  We also distributed about 150 flyers in the
neighborhood of the property.  Sad to say, we got very little interest, only
10 emails and 2 phone calls by the end of Friday.  We canceled the open
house.  

 

I do not believe that our price was too high based on comparative market
analysis.  My gut feeling is that we did not reach enough people just using
the internet and the 150 flyers.

 

Has anyone in this group been successful recently in the San Diego market
with the 5-day sale.  If so, how was your marketing done?

Hello,
 We are getting ready to do a 5 day sale in NJ and have a few questions.  We
are concerend about the legality of the 5 day sale.  What if we don't
recieve the bid that is the lowest price we're willing to accept?  Can
someone file a law suit against us for not taking their offer if we have
publically advertised that we would "take the highest bid" and sell sunday
night?  We are trying to put this whole thing togeather and would appreciate
some feed back.  Also, if there's anyone who has ran a successful 5 day sale
I would love to talk to you briefly on the phone just to get my confidence
and some pointers.  Could you provide your phone number, or just ask and I
will provide mine.  Thank You!!

Hi!

I am wondering if there are any realtors in the Chicago, IL area - or
anywhere for that matter - that are working with their sellers to sell their
homes this way?  :-)

Thanks!

Hello Ms. Freeman,

Why not just start at 25k to sift through the window shoppers and still get 3 truely interested buyers...or can you seller-finance the?difference+cost for one year?

Well, things didn't go as we had hoped. Our highest bid is $22,000. We thought it would go for $30-35K. We paid $25K for it three years ago and with all the expenses we had selling it (including plane ticket and rental car for my husband to return for this weekend), can't let it go for less than that. 

My husband is talking to our high bidder and breaking the news to her. Hopefully she can come up with something and we can make it work for both of us.

We are thinking that possibly we put too low of price in our advertising and that hurt us. Any thoughts? We listed it as $14,500 (or Best Offer, you know how the ad goes), but are thinking we may have been better off with $19,500. What do you think?

In the meantime we are considering other options--keep it as rental property (something we're not opposed to, but we live 16 hours away, means hiring someone closer to do on-site stuff for us), sell it traditionally (not my first choice), doing something with it for 6-12 months and then trying to sell it again with a higher starting price--I am really curious if that would have changed the final outcome. We do have options.

We are bummed. We (of course) were hoping for a nice profit on the property. We've already relocated to be near family and we hoping to be free of the property there soon.

Oh, well.

Offer a payment plan for the additional 5,ooo or the amount of car rental and plane ticket. If u don't sell it think of the expense to do it again fly n rent a car etc it may be worth it to get it off ur hands now.

Honestly I tried it the other way with rental and am still stuck n paying money outta pocket with a big weight on my shoulders.

All you need to say is, no one is committed to the sale until a contract is 
 signed.  Worked for my lawyer and everyone else on here.  It's totally  
legal, so take a deep breath.  :)

I've had two real estate lawyers recommend against a 5 day sale due to potentially being forced to sell a house at 50% of the value. 

A third lawyer thought "it might be okay", but openly admitted real estate wasn't his specialty. 

I still like the idea of the 5 day sale, but have been too afraid to try it.  One of my concerns was the wording "will be sold..."  The lawyers seemed more concerned with putting a low dollar figure on the advertisement. 

If anyone has a lawyer in Iowa who endorses the idea, I'd like to talk with them.

Message-ID: <8CCB11664A39FAB-874-19185@webmail-d014.sysops.aol.com>


Has anyone ran a successful 5-Day sale on a higher end house?  I know it will work on medium priced property, but does it work on the 2x and 3x medium priced houses?

There's a "guru" putting on a high-price boot camp about targeting houses $1-5 million homes, getting an option on the property, then selling with either a Round Robin or Outright auction.

Does it work?

Thanks,

Lynn

Big mistake to bring lawyers into the mix. They are notorious for giving bad advice and charging an arm and a leg for it.? You can always count on them erring on the side of caution and telling you not to do something. 

There is no legal obligation to sell anything at any price, real estate included, until you agree on a price and sign a contract.?This has been pointed out and proven time and time again.

The lawyer's point was that in advertising that creates a "general solicitation" you become obligated to sell something at an advertised price. 

An example would be if an electronics store advertised a ultra big screen tv at a unbelievable bargain price.  As a consumer if you went to buy store and offered them the asking price, they would be legally obligated to sell the product at the advertised price.  This is why all major retailers include some fine print somewhere in their ad that excludes them being obligated to sell the product in the case of mis-prints, typos, etc. 

Although an agreement to sell real-estate has to be in writing, the advertisement which includes a bargain price is a very risky move.  Even including the words "best offer over" could case a problem if the best offer isn't a price you can live with. 

The fact that the best offer may be less than you owe, is your problem- not the buyers. 

I want to use this method, but haven't had enough guts to risk a major loss after a legal battle.  I'm hopeful one of you has some good legal points to counter the advise I described above.

Can everyone say Ohhhhhhmmmmmm.   There.  Get over it.   There will be no 
legal battle.  As I said, tell everyone that no one is  obligated on either 
side to go through with the sale until a contract is  signed.  Also, put it 
on the top of your bid sheet.

There is loads of discussion about this on the forum. Bottom line - you 
yourself can be the highest bidder, or your bank, if the mortgage is higher 
than your best offer. You can tell your highest bidder that you have a bid 
in the amount that you need, and see what happens. If they can't go there, 
they drop out and are no longer part of the action. You are not a retail 
store!
 In the couple of years or so that I have been part of this group, I have 
never seen anyone have a problem - lots of fear and worry, but no actuality!
There have also been several cases, including mine, in which  the highest 
bid didn't reach the mortgage amount, and the high bidder agreed to raise 
the offer after the official Round Robin was over.
Don't let yourself be paralyzed by fear.

The lawyer's point was that in advertising that creates a "general 
solicitation" you become obligated to sell something at an advertised price.

An example would be if an electronics store advertised a ultra big screen tv 
at a unbelievable bargain price.  As a consumer if you went to buy store and 
offered them the asking price, they would be legally obligated to sell the 
product at the advertised price.  This is why all major retailers include 
some fine print somewhere in their ad that excludes them being obligated to 
sell the product in the case of mis-prints, typos, etc.

Although an agreement to sell real-estate has to be in writing, the 
advertisement which includes a bargain price is a very risky move.  Even 
including the words "best offer over" could case a problem if the best offer 
isn't a price you can live with.

The fact that the best offer may be less than you owe, is your problem- not 
the buyers.

I want to use this method, but haven't had enough guts to risk a major loss 
after a legal battle.  I'm hopeful one of you has some good legal points to 
counter the advise I described above.

Big mistake to bring lawyers into the mix. They are notorious for giving bad 
advice and charging an arm and a leg for it. You can always count on them 
erring on the side of caution and telling you not to do something.
There is no legal obligation to sell anything at any price, real estate 
included, until you agree on a price and sign a contract. This has been 
pointed out and proven time and time again.

I've had two real estate lawyers recommend against a 5 day sale due to 
potentially being forced to sell a house at 50% of the value.

A third lawyer thought "it might be okay", but openly admitted real estate 
wasn't his specialty.

I still like the idea of the 5 day sale, but have been too afraid to try it. 
One of my concerns was the wording "will be sold..." The lawyers seemed more 
concerned with putting a low dollar figure on the advertisement.

If anyone has a lawyer in Iowa who endorses the idea, I'd like to talk with 
them.

All you need to say is, no one is committed to the sale until a contract is 
signed. Worked for my lawyer and everyone else on here. It's totally legal, 
so take a deep breath. :)

Howdy, if the words "will be sold to the highest bidder" bother you, try "will be offered to the Highest bidder". I have had sales where the bids did not come up to what was needed and we made another offer to the high bidder which in most cases has been accepted.

Save your money. What they teach at the seminars is fantasy land. Just my opinion as I have been to several and it goes like this, Seller has had $1m propery on the market for a year with no success, you come along and offer $500k, seller jumps at the offer, you put sign in the yard with 5 day sale and get bids to 700k and you make 200k  with back to back closings. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is. If it really worked like that they wouldn't be doing seminars.

Has anyone ran a successful 5-Day sale on a higher end house?  I know it will work on medium priced property, but does it work on the 2x and 3x medium priced houses?
 
There's a "guru" putting on a high-price boot camp about targeting houses $1-5 million homes, getting an option on the property, then selling with either a Round Robin or Outright auction.
 
Does it work?
 
Thanks,

This subject comes up again and again and again.  It's over  "hashed."  So, 
for the time being, I'm done commenting on whether this  method is legal or 
not.  It is.  Thousands of people have done  it.  I even had one where I 
did not accept the highest bid.   Absolutely NO problem.  If you are going to 
buy the book, and you want to  sell your house;  relax.  It's all good.  If 
you want to listen  to attorney's and pay their fees to tell you what they 
know nothing about.....  return the book.  Stop thinking about it and get a 
realtor to list your  property in the traditional way.  Whatever lets you 
sleep at night is the  best way to go.  That's how life in every aspect is

Hello  5-Day,

Thankfully I have gotten back on the list by changing to a different email
account. Something messed up with my previous connection and I could not get
restored through "request at mailman" on the old address.

Good to be back in the loop.

Warm regards,

Paul Forste

Hello 5-Day Forum:

 

We are entering the final week of our home's sale.  We started our
advertising using this billboard, which was placed on the road to Chardon
(the county seat).  It was up during last week's Maple Festival, which draws
many thousands of people, so we know lots of people got to see it.  During
the time that it was up, we averaged one call per day.  Therefore, the
billboard brought us roughly 15 phone calls so far.  But, yesterday we had
an offer for $150,000.  He claimed he was a first time buyer and wanted to
beat the April 30 tax credit deadline.  I told him he would save more money
by purchasing my home on May 3rd.  Anyways, here's what the billboard looked
like:

 



 

This method of advertising created no small stir in the little township of
Hambden where we live - no one had ever seen such a thing before.  People
are still commenting about it.  That's good for us.

 

"Once a week" local advertising kicked in during last week - I'll explain
more another time, and we have 30 calls and 8 email inquiries.  Our
inspection dates are this weekend (May 1st and 2nd) with the round-robin
bidding to follow on Monday evening.  Our house is in its final state of
readiness and we are reaching the climax of the process.  Once people
understand that they are *not* dealing with a Realty or with an Auction
company, they generally lose their adversarial attitude and simply ask
questions.  We look forward to a house full of potential buyers and meeting
some new friends.

 

I have a question for the forum:  During the round-robin auction, if one of
the bidders asks how many people are left in the bidding process, is there a
problem telling them?   

 

This process has been a real blessing for us. We've even had some callers
comment on what a great idea this is.  Thank you, Bill Effros, for
publishing this method of marketing and selling your home.

 

Thanks for your responses and support.  We'll let you know how this all
turns out.

 

Rich and Barb Lang

I don't think there is any problem at all.  It's an open bidding  process 
where you tell people what the bids are, etc.  However;  I  think you may be 
served well when you get down to a few as just stating that the  bidding has 
been narrowed down to highly interested prospects and leave it at  that.  
You may even want to wait a bit longer between telephone calls to  keep them 
thinking for a bit.
 
Greatest of luck to you!  Sounds like you are going to have a  fantastic 
sale!
 
Janet

Wasn't being pressimistic, just realistic. I have done 5 day sales on many different properties and helped others do them, it works. Every time? no. The difference is if the seller is realistic about what their property is worth or not.  I have attended many seminars over 25 years and some are good and some are excellent and some are garbage.  I know of one specific former client who paid thousands of dollars to a guru and ended up with a basement full of signs, a nice paint job on a truck saying he buys houses and on the first transaction ended up refunding all of the monies and getting a nice letter from the real estate commission instructing him not to do it again.

There are legitimate seminars, real estate instructors, educational real estate books like "How to Sell Your Home in 5 Days"(thank you Bill) and then there are other. Caveat Emptor.

I think you are a little pessimistic.  No, I take that back.  You are A LOT pessimistic.  If you dream it, you can live it.  If it really worked like that, there wouldn't be seminars??????  I'm not getting you at all.

Save your money. What they teach at the seminars is fantasy land. Just my opinion as I have been to several and it goes like this, Seller has had $1m propery on the market for a year with no success, you come along and offer $500k, seller jumps at the offer, you put sign in the yard with 5 day sale and get bids to 700k and you make 200k  with back to back closings. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is. If it really worked like that they wouldn't be doing seminars.

Subject: [5-DayForum] Round Robin on high end house


Has anyone ran a successful 5-Day sale on a higher end house?  I know it will work on medium priced property, but does it work on the 2x and 3x medium priced houses?
 
There's a "guru" putting on a high-price boot camp about targeting houses $1-5 million homes, getting an option on the property, then selling with either a Round Robin or Outright auction.
 
Does it work?
 
Thanks,
 
Lynn

I hope I can consult with you. Thanks!   Terrylee

This subject comes up again and again and again.  It's over 
"hashed."  So, for the time being, I'm done commenting on whether this 
method is legal or not.  It is.  Thousands of people have done 
it.  I even had one where I did not accept the highest bid.  
Absolutely NO problem.  If you are going to buy the book, and you want to 
sell your house;  relax.  It's all good.  If you want to listen 
to attorney's and pay their fees to tell you what they know nothing about..... 
return the book.  Stop thinking about it and get a realtor to list your 
property in the traditional way.  Whatever lets you sleep at night is the 
best way to go.  That's how life in every aspect is managed.  I hope 
we can move on to more sales talk and less pessimistic talk.  That would 
let ME sleep better at night!  :)
 
The Greatest of Luck to All of You!!!!!  No Matter What You 
Decide!!!!

Hi Everyone,

I've been watching this group for several weeks now since both my husband
and I have come upon and read the book.  We have a home in West Jordan
(suburb of Salt Lake City) Utah that we need to sell.  I'm comfortable now
with not having a legal battle by either using the words "offered to the
highest bidder" and the fact that we, ourselves, can be the highest bidder.

I would like to see some postings from people who have actually run the
5-day Sale and what their outcomes were... even up to closing.

Thanks!

  Hi Everyone,


  I've been watching this group for several weeks now since both my husband and I have come upon and read the book.  We have a home in West Jordan (suburb of Salt Lake City) Utah that we need to sell.  I'm comfortable now with not having a legal battle by either using the words "offered to the highest bidder" and the fact that we, ourselves, can be the highest bidder.


  I would like to see some postings from people who have actually run the 5-day Sale and what their outcomes were... even up to closing.


  Thanks!

  ???.?*?*?? ????? ???*?*?.???




I would be interested on how you will treat both Sunday and Monday in your sale.  I too have a property in Utah and have been mulling the Sunday and Monday thing for a while.

Message-ID: <848355.95276.qm@web45509.mail.sp1.yahoo.com>

Hello!?? I am a Realtor in Florida, and love this 5-day sale.? I have been using this method since December and have sold 5 homes FAST for sellers who needed to sell (one was a short sale we needed an offer fast).??Some of these homes had been listed with another Realtor for 6 months, 2 years, and 3 years respectively -- with no activity, no calls,?no showings.?? Is great to step in and sell their house in a week.

My challenge -?I hope you can suggest solution - is some of my sellers are not reasonable when their final number comes back from the?bidding.???Does seem scary to have a house "worth" $210K, and advertise it for about half that.???This past weekend, many of the buyers attending only had cash?or pre-qualification for up to about $120K, so had to drop out of bidding early on.???We drove price up to $150K, but seller is insisting home is worth so much more.??Might just keep this one listed for awhile, but don't think will sell for much more than this bidding could bring.?

Perhaps I didn't set up the sellers with proper expectations??? Maybe we did advertising incorrectly and didn't fine the 2-3 real buyers??? I am advertising massively on websites and craig's list, signs on the highway, and emailing my large data base of buyers.? I had about?50 people through the house this weekend, but over 35 Realtor showing requests - so?Realtors were showing the house all week.? I got 15 bids.

Figure I'm doing something wrong, and maybe you can?offer some suggestions???Have had 3 sellers now refuse the final bid price.? Thanks again!

The truth of the matter is that what the seller thinks the property is worth
is in no way related to what it is actually worth.  That is completely up to
the buyers' perception and their ability to pay.  Florida has been hit
really hard by the real estate bubble's inflated prices and the resulting
contraction and thus prices SEEM way less than they should be while in truth
are stabilizing back to what the market can actually pay for them.  While it
is possible you did not have 2-3 real buyers, if you had plenty of traffic
looking at the property, and it seems to me that you did, chances are the
best offer was fairly close to the true value you could hope to get for the
property at this exact point in time.  If the seller is unwilling to accept
that price then it simply is not the appropriate time for the seller to be
selling.

Marnetta,

I am a realtor in CA. I have used this method on and off for about 6 years now. Even though the sale didn't produce the desired result for the seller,it did produce an opportunity to give the sellera reality check. The experience should have brought an adjustment to the seller's perception. I have been in your situation. List the property traditionally at the bare minimum that the seller will accept and put a clause in the listing that they agree to drop the price by 1-2% every two weeks until sold. If they don't agree they are not motivated sellers. Move on. This market only abides motivated sellers.

Good Luck,

Conrad Kuiken

I completely agree with Jason. This method really does let you know what your house is actually worth. FYI we have a dog of a house in Florida that last year had a tax assessment of $250,000, and now the assessment is $65,000. Since our mortgage is $202,000 we cannot sell it. you might want to share our sad tale with your seller. This is just a crappy time to think you can make any money selling your house! Especially in Florida!

Sounds like you are doing everything right.  Florida got hit kind of  hard 
in the economic tumble.  Your sellers probably are unrealistic.   This is a 
great method in a stable, climbing market.  However;  in a  market like 
yours, reality isn't always pretty.  Keep up the good  work.  You are getting 
good turnout and a nice number of bids.  I  think you are getting the real 
value reflected in the bidding.

	on and hold Highest Bidder Sale-- low response as of Thursday
	afternoon
Message-ID: <008b01cae817$c6f6b7f0$54e427d0$@net>

Have my first 5 day Sale scheduled this weekend for a higher-end lakefront
home I own in a golfing community nearest Pinehurst, NC. 

As of now-- Thursday 11pm-- I've received 1 call, 1 email and some # of
people have taken flyers from my flyer box in the front yard- a couple of
folks have expressed interest. Not throwing in the towel yet-and won't have
latest flyer count until Friday evening, but the low response so far has me
wonder if I would really be wise to hold the inspection & sale this weekend.


? 25 "responses" else must postpone sale? Want to properly assess the risk. 

50 info signs are ready for placement in the area Friday late afternoon.
Though I have a community sign permit it will be challenging to not violate
their stringent rules. Have good professional sign in the front yard (and
home grown one for 10 days prior). Also a few newspaper ads and various
electronic media. Got stopped cold by the city when tacking flyers to
mailboxes on Monday so I have resorted to mailing  a nice flyer to 150
residents who are to receive Thursday / Friday before sale weekend.

This sale is of personal importance so I appreciate your valuable feedback.
Thanks in advance. 

Paul

Paul,
 
In my area, both for me and two other 5 day sellers here, signs give us  
over 90% of our responses, and yours aren't even going up until the deadline 
is  in sight.  Get your signs up ASAP and see what happens.  Wait until  
around 9:00 before making your decision.  It will be interesting to see  your 
response today, as this is when your most favorable advertising is going  into 
effect.  Even your flyers are coming out late.  I hope your phone  rings 
off the hook tonight.
 
Keep us posted.
 
Janet

How do you do a sale if your property is 2,000 miles from where you live?? Is there anyone else that would help with a 5 day sale in this group?

Paul,
?
In my area, both for me and two other 5 day sellers here, signs give us over 90% of our responses, and yours aren't even going up until the deadline is in sight.? Get your signs up ASAP and see what happens.? Wait until around 9:00 before making your decision.? It will be interesting to see your response today, as this is when your most favorable advertising is going into effect.? Even your flyers are coming out late.? I hope your phone rings off the hook tonight.
?
Keep us posted.

50 info signs are ready for placement in the area Friday late afternoon. Though I have a community sign permit it will be challenging to not violate their stringent rules.

This sale is of personal importance so I appreciate your valuable feedback. Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much for asking.

 

Property is located in Whispering Pines, North Carolina (Pinehurst golf area) &  1 hour South from where I live in Cary. Driving down in about 90 minutes to put up signs which came in yesterday.

Putting a banner on a car during the inspection period.

positive.  She is a regular contributor, so should see your message in  time.  Nice 
area.  Cary is great.  Brother works at SAS, as most  every one who lives 
in Cary does.  LOL
 
Greatest of luck, and hope you get responses.

How do you do a sale if your property is 2,000  miles from where you live?  
Is there anyone else that  would help with a 5 day sale in this group?

Paul,
 
In my area, both for me and two other 5 day sellers  here, signs give us 
over 90% of our responses, and yours  aren't even going up until the deadline 
is in sight.   Get your signs up ASAP and see what happens.  Wait  until 
around 9:00 before making your decision.  It will  be interesting to see your 
response today, as this is when  your most favorable advertising is going 
into effect.   Even your flyers are coming out late.  I hope your  phone rings 
off the hook tonight.
 
Keep us posted.
 
Janet

Have my first 5 day Sale scheduled this  weekend for a higher-end lakefront 
home I own in a golfing  community nearest Pinehurst, NC. 

As of now--  Thursday 11pm-- I?ve received 1 call, 1 email and some #  of 
people have taken flyers from my flyer box in the front  yard? a couple of 
folks have expressed interest. Not  throwing in the towel yet?and won?t have 
latest flyer  count until Friday evening, but the low response so far  has 
me wonder if I would really be wise to hold the  inspection & sale this 
weekend. 

? 25  ?responses? else must postpone sale? Want to properly  assess the 
risk. 

50 info signs are ready for  placement in the area Friday late afternoon. 
Though I have  a community sign permit it will be challenging to not  violate 
their stringent rules. Have good professional sign  in the front yard (and 
home grown one for 10 days prior).  Also a few newspaper ads and various 
electronic media. Got  stopped cold by the city when tacking flyers to 
mailboxes  on Monday so I have resorted to mailing  a nice flyer  to 150 residents 
who are to receive Thursday / Friday  before sale weekend.

This sale is of personal  importance so I appreciate your valuable 
feedback. Thanks  in advance.  

Paul

Yes, I am in NC, but in Charlotte - about three hours or so away. Sorry I haven't been following this very closely - when is your sale?

  We have a member nearby.  I believe Rosemarie is in NC, but am not positive.  She is a regular contributor, so should see your message in time.  Nice area.  Cary is great.  Brother works at SAS, as most every one who lives in Cary does.  LOL

  Greatest of luck, and hope you get responses.

    Thank you so much for asking.

     

    Property is located in Whispering Pines, North Carolina (Pinehurst golf area) &  1 hour South from where I live in Cary. Driving down in about 90 minutes to put up signs which came in yesterday.

    Putting a banner on a car during the inspection period.

Got stopped cold by the city when tacking flyers to mailboxes on Monday so I have resorted to mailing  a nice flyer to 150 residents who are to receive Thursday / Friday before sale weekend.

              This sale is of personal importance so I appreciate your valuable feedback. Thanks in advance. 

              Paul

Subject: [5-DayForum] Advertising in Georgia
Message-ID: <005d01cae7e6$655c69d0$30153d70$@net>

I want to run a 5-day auction in Stone Mountain, GA (about a ? hour from
Atlanta) within the next three weeks, but I have been having trouble finding
a way to advertise.  I priced the ad in the AJC (the Atlanta newspaper) and
they wanted $900 for the five days.  That?s the only daily newspaper I have
been able to locate.  There?s a couple other weekly papers that I thought
I?d put my ad in, but it doesn?t get the 5-day consecutive ad effect that
the book talks about.

 

I?ve also been unable to locate a billboard.  I?m wondering if that?s out of
my price range too.  

 

I?ve priced mailers and that seems extremely expensive too.

 

I know that advertising is key to the success of this auction.  

 

I?ll be traveling down there for the two day inspection (which will cost me
~$250), so I want to make sure we advertise properly.  Unfortunately, I
don?t have thousands to put into promoting this sale.  Any guidance would be
appreciated!  Thank you.
