Yes, thats right, another FSBO website in the USA. This time one that potentially allows buyers to never see the house before buying it. Apparently the site RealUmbrella.com will allow users to complete the entire buying process online.
I believe this goes back to the old medical metaphor. Would you let someone who isn’t a doctor perform open heart surgery on you? No. So why would you buy a house without the advice of an expert? People have no idea just how much work a realtor does to protect you, use one! You won’t realize the value behind it until something goes wrong, and then you will be sorry you didn’t.
