Here are some of the benefits of buying a property directly from the property owner:
Save Money!
By purchasing directly from the seller, you could save the built-in cost of an estate agents commission fee (average 1.5%). Buying direct enables you to negotiate directly with the seller and save money. Here is a table to show you how much you could save when you buy your property on Sellityourself.ie.

View properties when it is convenient for you!
Searching for properties on Sellityourself.ie offers you the freedom to view potential properties when it is most convenient for you and the seller i.e. in the evenings and at the weekends. These are times when real estate agents would not be available.
Greater Flexibility
Buying on your own offers you greater flexibility to view potential homes at your convenience (evenings, weekends etc.) and to directly negotiate the sale of the property directly with the seller.
Learn Much More About A Property
You learn much more about a property when dealing directly with the property owner. The property owner can not evade questions by saying 'I don't know'. How many times have you asked an estate agent a specific question about a property and they were unable to tell you?
