Default Re: ONE thing I've learned...

I also think that you have something with this whole FSBO idea. Lets add a different prospective to it though. Instead of charging the homeowners money to place their homes on your website, you could find a way to list mortgage companies and have them pick up the bill. This way the homeowners get free advertising, mortgage company gets new customers, and you get paid as well.
