For most homeowners, the process of selling a house can be quite stressful.  If you have been thinking about selling your home, even if the property has issues, there are many creative ways to do so without the hassle of traditional listing with a realtor.

This article discusses six creative strategies that you may want to consider when selling your property:

Whether you're looking for an easy way to create listings or want to avoid commission fees altogether, there are plenty of alternatives out there. Some options will work better than others depending on your specific situation.

Option 1: Sell as-is with no contingencies - For those who would like to take the traditional route and list their house through a real estate agent and don't mind the extra cost and wait time, then listing with no contingencies is probably best.

Option 2: Use a listing service - These services help you by listing your home, screening potential buyers, and setting up showings digitally. Not without a cost of course. The cost varies depending on the platform but is often around $200-300 per month.

Option 3: Post to social media sites - This option is becoming more popular because it's free! Sites like Facebook are great for targeting specific demographics that would be interested in buying your house(based on likes, interests, and other information they've shared). You can also target certain networks like local home investors.

Option 4: Create a virtual tour - Use a 360-degree video to showcase your home. This allows potential buyers to imagine themselves in the home and be able to possibly make a remote investment. They can explore the property before coming in person. You can even provide additional information about the house, like schools nearby or what the street looks like.

Option 5: Pay for marketing - Think ad space on different platforms like Google, Facebook, and Instagram. Given you have a website or third-party website that is showcasing the property, this can add up quickly.

Option 6: If you're still unsure of which option is best for you, consider joining forces with an investment home buying company which is like networking with a professional to help with marketing your home. Still no realtor or closing costs. These professionals will market your listing on multiple levels. Some of which are better than a traditional agent would.
