Am I allowed to...

[jamesbe]

Post a link to my house for sale on here?

Hoping maybe some local Ottawa members could forward around to their friends / colleagues perhaps. Read the rules doesn't really say but don't want to do it until I am sure I can.

Thanks.

You're really better off using local ad services like kijiji, craigslist, etc.

[jamesbe]

Yes, using that, facebook, mls, other websites. ETC.

But can't hurt to get the word out other ways as well

[NotMe]

However if you could post a story of how the selling by owner goes that would be cool....

[Four Pillars]

It's fine with me if you want to post it here. But, it's really up to Frugal Trader and CC since they run the joint.

I agree with NotMe: you could post regular updates on weird situations that happened to you, mistakes (hopefully very few) and successes! That would be very interesting.

I wouldnt want this forum to become a raw real-estate announce board though.

This is a discussion forum, not a place to post advertising and try and solicit sales. Your house is probably already on MLS, and you'll get far more relevant exposure there than spamming up our forums with it here.

Why are you selling?
How have you priced it?
Where are you going to live?

I'd like input on this request from other members. I am concerned that once we set a precedent of publishing a classified ad, other members might want to post ads in the future.

I think this forum is a great place for discussion, but I don't see it as a good place to buy and sell things because people people on here live throughout Canada and the US.

If CC decides to, it should be in a new section called "Marketplace".

Obviously they would have to follow rules as to what they can and can't sell, what details to include, conditions etc.
