Selling Your Home For Sale By Owner in Las Vegas? A Transaction Coordinator Handles the Paperwork (and Gets You on the MLS)

Plenty of Las Vegas homeowners want to sell their own home. They want to set the price, talk to buyers themselves, and keep the decisions in their own hands. What they don't want is the stack of Nevada forms, disclosures and deadlines that comes with a sale. That's where Reign TC comes in. You run the sale your way, and we handle the paperwork side from listing setup to closing, including getting your home on the MLS.

Who This Is For

Our For Sale By Owner (FSBO) service is for sellers who:

• Want to set their own price and negotiate directly with buyers and buyers' agents.
• Are comfortable showing the home and talking with buyers.
• Don't want to learn Nevada's disclosure rules, contract deadlines and escrow process the hard way.
• Want the exposure of the MLS, where buyers' agents actually search, without signing up for a full-service listing.

If that sounds like you, you don't need to choose between doing everything yourself and handing everything over. You can split the work.

How the Work Is Split

You handle: pricing, negotiating offers, showings and the decisions about your home.

Reign TC handles: the listing paperwork, the MLS listing, the seller disclosures, contract deadlines, and title and escrow coordination, all the way to closing.

One important line: a transaction coordinator doesn't give legal advice, set your price or negotiate for you. Those decisions stay yours. Our job is to make sure the right document is in front of you at the right time, signed correctly, and delivered to the right people before every deadline.

Step 1: Listing Setup

It starts with our listing form. You tell us:

• Your list price and how soon you'd like to go live.
• How long you'd like the listing to run.
• What's included or excluded with the home (furniture, appliances, fixtures and so on).
• Your photos. If you'd like professional photography or video, we can recommend a local real estate photographer.

If the home is held in a trust, we'll ask for the certification of trust and confirm which trustees are authorized to sign. For an LLC or corporation, we'll need the articles and operating agreement. Getting signing authority right at the start prevents a scramble at the closing table.

Once your form is in, your listing agreement and seller disclosures are sent to you for e-signature, usually within one business day.

Step 2: Getting Your Home on the MLS

Most buyers in Las Vegas are working with an agent, and those agents search the MLS. A home that's only on a yard sign or a FSBO website misses most of them.

Only a licensed brokerage can put a home on the MLS, so your listing goes up under Galindo Group Real Estate, the brokerage of Reign TC's owner, Lexi Barraza, a licensed Nevada agent. The listing notes that the home is for sale by owner, so buyers and their agents contact you directly.

Because the listing runs through a brokerage, it follows the brokerage's standard process, which includes a brokerage transaction fee paid at closing. That fee goes to the brokerage, not to Reign TC, and it's based on the final sales price. We walk you through the exact amount before anything goes live, so there are no surprises.

Already listed with another agent? We can get everything ready in the background so you can go live as soon as your current listing agreement expires. We never touch an active listing that's under contract with another brokerage.

Step 3: Seller Disclosures, Done Right

Disclosures are where FSBO sales most often go wrong. Nevada requires sellers of residential property to complete the Seller's Real Property Disclosure (SRPD) and deliver it to the buyer before the sale closes, and depending on the home there may be more:

• Lead-based paint disclosure for homes built before 1978.
• HOA resale package if the home is in a common-interest community. Many Las Vegas homes have both a master and a sub-association, and the timing rules matter. See our guide to Nevada HOA resale package deadlines.
• Solar disclosures if there's a leased or financed solar system.

We send you the right forms for your home, tell you what each one is for, and make sure everything is signed and delivered on time. You fill in what you know about your home. We make sure nothing is missing.

Step 4: When an Offer Comes In

You review and negotiate the offer yourself. Once you've accepted, Reign TC takes over the file:

• Open escrow with the title company and send the executed contract.
• Build the deadline calendar: earnest money, inspection period, appraisal, loan approval and close of escrow.
• Introduce everyone: the buyer's agent, the escrow officer and the lender.
• Track earnest money until title confirms receipt.
• Coordinate the buyer's inspection and any request for repairs paperwork, so your responses are written up and signed correctly.
• Order the HOA resale package and follow up on payment links.
• Keep you updated in plain English, so you always know what's next and what's due.

Step 5: Closing

In the final stretch we work with escrow on the settlement statement, make sure every addendum is fully signed, confirm your signing appointment and keep after the last items until the deed records. When it's done, you get your fully executed file for your records and for taxes.

What It Costs

• $95 listing setup fee, paid up front when you submit your listing form.
• $495 transaction coordination fee, paid at closing through escrow. If your home doesn't sell, you don't pay it.
• Brokerage transaction fee for the MLS listing, paid at closing to the brokerage and based on the sales price. We confirm the amount with you up front.

Compare that with a full-service listing commission, and you can see why so many sellers who are comfortable handling buyers themselves choose this route. See all of our services on our pricing page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I sell my house myself in Nevada and still be on the MLS?

Yes, but only a licensed brokerage can put a home on the MLS. With Reign TC's For Sale By Owner service, your home is listed under a licensed Nevada brokerage and marked for sale by owner, so buyers and their agents contact you directly while you keep control of pricing and negotiating.

What does a transaction coordinator do for a FSBO seller?

A transaction coordinator handles the paperwork side of the sale: listing setup, seller disclosures, contract deadlines, earnest money tracking, inspection and repair paperwork, HOA resale packages, and title and escrow coordination through closing. The seller still sets the price, negotiates and makes every decision.

What disclosures does a FSBO seller need in Nevada?

Nevada sellers of residential property must complete the Seller's Real Property Disclosure (SRPD). Depending on the home, you may also need a lead-based paint disclosure (homes built before 1978), an HOA resale package for common-interest communities, and solar disclosures for leased or financed systems.

How much does Reign TC charge for a For Sale By Owner sale?

A $95 listing setup fee up front and a $495 transaction coordination fee at closing through escrow, which you don't pay if the home doesn't sell. The MLS listing also carries a brokerage transaction fee paid at closing to the brokerage, based on the sales price, which we confirm with you before going live.

Does a transaction coordinator negotiate for me or give legal advice?

No. A transaction coordinator doesn't negotiate, set your price or give legal advice. Those decisions stay with you. The TC makes sure the right documents are prepared, signed and delivered on time.
