RE Site Allies With Military.com

ForSaleByOwner.com, a website for do-it-yourself homeowners who want to avoid paying real estate commissions, has announced a partnership with Military.com to offer military personnel the tools to sell their home without a real estate agent.Under the terms of the arrangement, Military.com will direct its five million members to a specially created, jointly branded site offering the full range of ForSaleByOwner.com services. The service members will receive a 10% discount on any listings package purchased on the joint site. "For military families who are required to move regularly, paying a hefty broker commission each time becomes an unfair and costly financial burden," said Colby Sambrotto, chief operating officer of the New York-based ForSaleByOwner.com. "By partnering with Military.com, Americans who need this service the most will receive the tools and information they need to buy and sell independently -- and save thousands of dollars in the process." ForSaleByOwner.com also operates a site, YourLoanHelper.com, that offers applications for discount mortgage and refinancing services. The companies can be found online at http://www.forsalebyowner.com and http://www.military.com.
