Welcome to Kansas City's original, private home sales company. We are not a real estate agency therefore we take NO COMMISSIONS, EVER. Since 1996 we've helped thousands of buyers and sellers save millions of dollars in real estate commissions. Buyers benefit from buying homes listed through our services because they are not paying commission-inflated prices.

For home buyers we offer the largest selection of FSBO properties in the KC metro area. Listings are updated daily online and each month in our popular magazine. It's easy to shop FSBO properties, simply find the home you are interested in, call the owner directly and make an appointment to see the property.

For home sellers we offer everything you need to successfully sell your home by owner! Our unique FSBO Fast™ sales program allows YOU to not only match, but to significantly OUTPERFORM any agent's best marketing effort. You're in control, you call the shots, you keep your hard-earned equity. Our sellers sell faster and net more money than homes sold through old traditional commission-based real estate agencies. We provide our sellers with non-stop assistance until closing. Why pay commission?

Homes that are offered "For Sale By Owner" are more competitively priced. Today home buyers always shop private sales first. FSBO properties do not have to inflate their asking price to recoup their agent's high commission! No commission real estate saves money for the Buyer AND Seller! Some of the services that we provide are listed below:

	Selling Your Home Join the thousands of metro Kansas City area home sellers who've discovered the smarter, easier way to sell their homes. Pearson’s For Sale By Owner clients...

At Pearson’s For Sale By Owner we're all about providing unparallel multi-media exposure to promote the sale of your home. After all, selling your home is all about exposure. The more exposure to as many different diverse groups of people, the better the chance you will find your buyer. If you just install a sign in your front yard you are relying on only drive-by traffic. If you just run an ad in the local paper you are limiting yourself to the few buyers who get the local paper. We believe strongly in multi-media exposure. Some buyers like to look at real estate magazines, some like to browse the web, while others drive around looking for signs. Why not reach them all in one consistent marketing approach? Here's how we do it...
