Does anyone have experience with doing apt showings as the owner? Is it usual practice to let the buyer broker show the home to their client without you being there at all? I understand how the buyer would feel more comfortable looking around and discussing things without the homeowner there, but shouldn’t there be someone present on your side.

  1. Sounds fishy to me. Probably not a real buyer’s broker at all, just a regular broker angling for a commission. Post on your ad: “No brokers please!”

  2. I sold FSBO, but 5 years ago, so it was a different market and I had no problem getting offers without allowing buyers brokers to be a part of things. But if I did allow it, I would still want to be there. Are you also going to pay the buyers broker their commission?
