FSBOOPEN.COM Introduces Next Generation Listing Service; One-Stop Site for Home Owners to Sell, Market and Manage House Listings
FSBOOPEN.com Is a Next Generation Site for Home Owners Combining All Property Listing Methods and Marketing Tools Required to Sell a House Online, Including Social Media
BATON ROUGE, LA -- (Marketwire) -- 09/02/10 -- CEO Joe McFerrin today announced the launch of FSBOOPEN.com, a completely new service aiming to redefine the way houses are sold online by home owners.
Geared to the For Sale by Owner market, FSBOOPEN.com allows users to sell, market and spin property by combining every process and marketing tool required to generate a house listing and market awareness in just a few clicks.
"Using FSBOOPEN.com, home owners can list their house for viewing with multiple premium real estate sites, including Craigslist, Trulia and Zillow," says Joe McFerrin.
More than just a listing site for property, FSBOOPEN taps into a pool of offline and online resources. User will receive an individual property home page to share with potential buyers, and are able to upload an unlimited amount of images at no cost.
"Users may also publish professional looking brochures to use as leave-behinds or mailers for the open house," says Joe McFerrin.

Recognizing that social media will be vital for tomorrow's housing market, FSBOOPEN.com already today makes it easy to publish property with social media sites in just a few clicks.
"We are the only one-stop site for the For Sale By Owner-user group that we know of featuring distribution over Twitter, Facebook and Google Base in combination with premium real estate sites," says Joe McFerrin.
