Introducing Our New "Find a Pro" Service

You might have noticed a new tab along the banner of ForSaleByOwner.com. "Find a Pro" is our new resource to help sellers and buyers connect with with service providers to help them through the real estate process and become new homeowners. We're building up "Find a Pro" with experts in more than 20 professional categories, from title companies and real estate attorneys to electricians and general contractors.

We welcome professionals in all markets across the country to join our new service to market their services to our website's more than 50,000 daily visitors and active selling and buying community. Since our customers are independent sellers and buyers, this is a tremendous opportunity for service providers to gain new clients who to traditionally are steered to businesses favored by real estate agents.

A Harvard study found that new homeowners typically make improvements after they purchase a home and spend an average of 20-25 percent more on home projects than other households. The new ‘Find a Pro’ service helps businesses can attract new clients in the untapped "by owner" market, while providing valuable services that ForSaleByOwner.com customers need to sell, buy and maintain a home.

Real estate businesses and home improvement service providers can visit http://www.forsalebyowner.com/pro/new to learn more about the program and register as a participating provider.
