For Sale By Owner in Irmo Sold By Top Realtor, Ronnie Michel
How Ronnie Sold This Home After It Was Listed For Sale By Owner For Months
Record Sale Dreher Shoals Road Irmo SC
The Situation
The owners of this Irmo home tried to sell it themselves. They knew the market was hot and thought they could save on commission. But after months of a yard sign, a few Zillow posts, and dealing with unqualified buyers, the house was still sitting. They were frustrated, burnt out, and starting to wonder if something was wrong with the property. It wasn't the house; it was the exposure.
The Strategy
Ronnie Michel didn't just walk in and ask for a listing; he showed them the gap in their strategy. He explained that serious buyers are working with agents, and those agents weren't showing a FSBO home. Ronnie took over with a professional launch: high-end photography, a verified pricing strategy, and immediate distribution to the Coldwell Banker network. He took the burden of "showing" off the owners and turned it into a professional sales process.
The Result
Once the home was properly marketed and accessible to the agent community, the dynamic changed instantly. Ronnie generated multiple showings in the first week. He negotiated a clean offer that netted the sellers more money than they would have made selling it solo, even after paying the commission.
