FSBO Listing Syndication
For additional exposure, our Canadian listings from ForSaleByOwner.ca are automatically submitted to the following classifieds websites & social media:
This creates a broader reach for your listing!
Learn more about listing syndication.
Complete & Relevant Listing Data
All of our packages give you the ability to fill out a variety of data fields to ensure a complete and accurate listing. These fields include the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, lot size, parking, year built, room dimensions, fire place, air conditioning, hot tub, pool, and much more.
All of this additional information helps your property be represented in a professional manner.
Automatic Google Indexing
Every day, we automatically submit all of our listings to Google using an XML sitemap system specifically designed for search engines. These sitemaps are accessible to all search engines, meaning that others are easily able to crawl our listings, too.
All of our listings are submitted and indexed by most major search engines, giving our customers more exposure on Google and other popular search engines.
SPAM Prevention System
Using a combination of formulas, we have a custom built spam prevention system in place that filters out the majority of junk and scam attacks from getting through to you. When someone sends an email to you through your listing's contact form, we strive to detect and block messages that do not appear to be legitimate, increasing your online safety. It also saves you from the inconvenience of having to sort through several fraudulent or spammy messages.
However, it's still important to use common sense and to ensure that all prospective buyers view your property in person before any agreements are made.
Private Website Linking
Do you already have your own website to help promote your listing?
At For Sale By Owner Inc., we encourage our customers to list their property on multiple websites to further increase their exposure. Simply paste in the URL into the "Private Website Link" field when you add or edit your listing, and a personalized button will appear on your listing that goes to the external link.
Virtual Tour Linking
Did you get a professional virtual tour done of your property? If so, add the link to your listing and a virtual tour button will appear for users to click on in order to view it.
This allows potential buyers to get an even better impression of your property and is therefore a highly valuable selling tool.
Online Support & Tips for Success
We have various guides available for free on our website to help you make the most out of your selling experience.
Topics include preparing yourself and the property for sale, property inspections, using social media to promote your listing, showing your home, documentation, working with buyer's agents, and much more.
You can view our Successful Seller's Guide or Dealing With Buyer's Agents guide here on our website at any time. We are also available 7 days a week to support you with your listing.
No Cancellation Fees
There are no cancellation fees for any of our services. Period.
No Listing Change Fees
There are no fees when you submit change requests (listing amendments) for your MLS® System posting on REALTOR.ca, such as a price change.
You can also freely update your listing on ForSaleByOwner.ca as often as you like, which you can do yourself directly in your online account.
No Selling Fees

7 Days a Week Listing Services
We strive to be available 7 days a week to support you with your listing, including MLS® System services.
Listing Advertised on REALTOR.ca
Be seen on Canada's largest real estate website by getting a posting of your property on REALTOR.ca.
All British Columbia REALTOR.ca mere postings are loaded to the local real estate board that is closest to the property's physical location. For more details, please click on the "MLS® System Listing on Your Local Board" section of this page.
Did you know that the REALTOR.ca and MLS.ca websites are actually the same website? If you type the address MLS.ca into a web browser, your browser will redirect you to REALTOR.ca. Many people don't know this, so we've taken a moment to explain it to make things more clear to our sellers.
With a mere listing on REALTOR.ca, your property will receive maximum exposure to the most serious buyers and real estate agents, with the flexibility of still being able to sell privately without commission.
REALTOR.ca DDF® Listing Syndication
Aside from REALTOR.ca, your listing is also automatically submitted to several additional real estate and classifieds websites for maximum exposure:
We also post ads on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter!
PLEASE NOTE: The listings marked with "(FSBO)" are submitted using our own listing syndication service, whereas all others are provided by REALTOR.ca's DDF® (Data Distribution Facility) service and are subject to change. Some listings may not show up on the websites mentioned above due to technical difficulties, or because the listing may not qualify due to restrictions imposed by the destination website.
Learn more about listing syndication.
Open House Data on REALTOR.ca
Announce Your Open Houses on REALTOR.ca!
(Unlimited times for the duration of your listing)
With this service, the brokerage will update the REALTOR.ca website with your open house schedule for up to 4 weeks in advance. This will allow for your REALTOR.ca listing to come up in a search result for any buyer or agent who has used the Open House search parameter on the REALTOR.ca website when searching for available properties to view.
30 Photos on REALTOR.ca
In addition to the 60 photos that you can show on your ForSaleByOwner.ca listing, you can also have 30 photos displayed on the REALTOR.ca website.
Any combination of exterior and interior photos is acceptable.
REALTOR.ca Paperwork Assistance
Worried about filling out the REALTOR.ca paperwork? Don't be! We make it easy, and it's included in our pricing!
We fill out the forms with you and then you e-sign them. It's that simple!
After 22+ years helping people sell on their own, we know that some people may feel a little overwhelmed with the whole sales process, and the paperwork is usually the number #1 source of the stress. We take most of the "work" out of doing the paperwork - so you don't need to worry about it!
Learn more by visiting our Paperwork Assistance page.
Find a Better Listing Price? We'll Match It!
If you have indeed found a comparable service for a better price, we will match the price.
There are several sites out there who are using creative pricing models to hide the true cost of listing with them.
At For Sale By Owner Inc., we operate differently. We use a true one-time flat fee pricing model for all of our MLS® System Listings.
All of our listings are "Until It Sells" with no time limit. We don't charge a fee to cancel the listing if you need or want to.
We don't charge for any changes to your listing including photos or price updates, either.
Instead, we charge one low flat fee that also includes:
- Auto-Forwarding of All REALTOR.ca Inquiries
- REALTOR.ca DDF® Listing Syndication
- Sales Contracts for Each Province
- Printable Feature Sheets
- REALTOR.ca Paperwork Assistance
- Online Support & Tips for Success
- Advertising Syndication to Multiple Social Media Sites
- FSBO Listing Syndication
- 30 Interior/Exterior Photos on REALTOR.ca
- Google Indexing Of Your Listing
- Virtual Tours and Video Integration
- Open House on REALTOR.ca... and much more!
Please make sure that the service you are comparing our price to has similar elements and offers the same high level of service. :-)
If you are confident that you have found a comparable service at a better price than ours, please let us know and we will step up and match that price. Please call us directly at 1-800-831-3726 ext 101 so we can validate your price.
MLS® System Listing on Your Local Board
We load your MLS® System listing to your local real estate board!
Our brokerage members belong to multiple local real estate boards throughout Canada.
This allows us to offer a premium service on our REALTOR.ca listings, because each listing is actually loaded to the local real estate board that is closest to the property's physical location.
This means that your REALTOR.ca listing will be fully visible to the local real estate agents in your area, and to the general public, giving your listing FULL exposure on the MLS® System & REALTOR.ca.
You can learn more about local boards on our "What is a Local Board?" page.
If you would like clarification about local boards, please call us anytime on our toll-free number at 1-800-831-3726 ext. 101.
Auto-Forwarding of REALTOR.ca Inquiries
Since your property will be publicly posted on the REALTOR.ca website under our listing brokerage, several interested parties will inquire right on REALTOR.ca as opposed to your listing here on ForSaleByOwner.ca. Since your MLS® System posting can only have the brokerage's contact information on it, we have a solution that automatically catches these inquiries and then immediately forwards them to you so you don't miss a thing.
Your local board listing will also be accessible to real estate agents via their internal systems, which have their own messaging platforms. Our customized auto-forwarding system also recognizes these inquiries so that you receive them all!
Property Title Search
IMPORTANT: This document is newly required for BC properties - you can either supply your own, or purchase it through us.
If you supply your own property title, it MUST be dated within 30 days of your property going live on REALTOR.ca, otherwise it will be rejected by the real estate board.
To save yourself the hassle of acquiring one yourself, we can take care of it for you for a modest fee of $20 + GST.
Property Evaluation Tools - Pricing
Need help pricing your property? The Sold Data reports we supply contain real MLS® System market data based on the comparable criteria that you choose. Your PDF report will include all comparable properties available at the time of the request, without any properties being left out.
This is an optional addon that can be purchased with your REALTOR.ca listing package for $39.95.
Please note that this service is currently offered in all areas of BC except Chilliwack and Powell River at this time.
