Show your actual listing service, the questions it can address, and how to request a discussion. Let owners compare that service with the work they intend to handle themselves. The page structure below is an editorial recommendation for agent websites. It establishes no conversion rate, sale-price advantage, or entitlement to contact an owner. ## What does FSBO mean for this page? Use the term for an owner-directed sale, then explain your service in plain language. ARMLS defines FSBO as an owner handling a residential sale without a real estate professional's help. [ARMLS FSBO explanation, published 2023.08.08; checked 2026.10.23](https://armls.com/what-is-fsbo). Do not turn that category into a claim about the visitor's knowledge, finances, or likelihood of hiring you. ## What question should the page answer first? Answer: what work would you take on if this owner chose your listing service? Name the tasks you provide and the decisions that remain with the owner. Have the broker approve that description. Avoid treating a free resource download as agreement to a listing presentation. Make the resource and the service conversation separately understandable. ## Which tasks belong in the comparison? Use the work your brokerage can deliver. Ask the owner which tasks they intend to handle before suggesting a gap. | Selling task | What your page should explain | | --- | --- | | Pricing discussion | Evidence you review and the limits of the resulting opinion | | Property presentation | Photography, descriptions, and preparation advice included in your service | | Marketing | Placements you can confirm and responsibilities for approval | | Inquiries and access | Who handles questions, scheduling, and property access | | Offers and coordination | Your role and the specialists involved where needed | Present this as a service description, not a universal comparison of every private sale. Leave unsupported tasks out. ## Should the page claim owners earn more with an agent? Omit a causal earnings promise unless you have evidence that supports that exact claim. Do not turn different groups' sale-price medians into a prediction for the visitor's property. If pricing is the owner's question, explain your review process and link to the [CMA sample guide](/articles/public-cma-sample-agent-seller-page). Keep any sample explicitly separate from an analysis of their home. ## How should compensation appear? Use the brokerage's approved explanation of how the proposed service and compensation will be discussed. Avoid a universal commission percentage or a savings figure invented for the comparison. For REALTORS®, Standard of Practice 1-12 requires advising sellers entering listing contracts that broker compensation is not set by law and is fully negotiable. [NAR Standard of Practice 1-12 in the 2026 Code, checked 2026.10.23](https://www.nar.realtor/about-nar/governing-documents/code-of-ethics/2026-code-of-ethics-standards-of-practice). ## Does an owner advertisement establish current representation? Ask the owner and follow the broker's verification process. Do not make a website form decide the legal meaning of a marketing arrangement. For REALTORS®, Standard of Practice 16-9 requires reasonable efforts to determine whether a prospect has a current, valid exclusive agreement for the same type of service before entering a representation agreement. [NAR representation check, checked 2026.10.23](https://www.nar.realtor/about-nar/governing-documents/code-of-ethics/2026-code-of-ethics-standards-of-practice). Keep an uncertain answer visible for professional review. ## What resource could owners inspect before contacting you? Offer a readable checklist of questions about pricing evidence, property information, marketing responsibilities, access, and next steps. Describe it as a planning aid. Publish the useful material on the page. If there is a download, show its contents and date. Avoid advertising a complete legal document package or market analysis that the resource does not supply. ## What should the inquiry ask? Request the owner's question, property area, and preferred reply method. Offer choices such as marketing, pricing discussion, listing-service comparison, or another question. Keep the present plan optional. An owner should be able to request information without declaring an intention to stop selling independently. Leave sensitive documents for an appropriate professional conversation. ## What should happen after submission? Tell the owner who receives the question and what response the service can provide. Keep an inquiry, a scheduled conversation, and a signed engagement distinct. Pass the selected question and source page to the recipient. Require a separate review before any later outreach process. This page brief does not establish permission for calls, texts, or subscription messages. ## How should results be measured? Record received questions and their topics. Count a service discussion only when it occurs. Count a listing engagement from the brokerage's completed record. Avoid calling every download a converted listing. Use actual questions to improve the explanation of work and to identify information owners wanted but could not find. ## What should the builder demonstrate? Require readable comparison rows, usable contact controls, and a marked test inquiry received at the agreed destination. Check the owner's question and uncertainty about representation in that record. Review download access and failure messages. These are acceptance requirements for future work, not evidence of a completed page or sales outcome. ## Include the FSBO page in your website brief Use the [real estate website guides](/for/real-estate) to prepare your approved service comparison and owner resource.
