1. Your FSBO Sign agreement covers installation, removal and maintenance for the life of your contract.  Please DO NOT attempt to move, remove or repair a post yourself.  Contact FSBOmadison.com directly and we will service the post and sign. 
  2. If it is determined that a seller has moved a sign to another property, that seller is to be charged a $75.00 installation fee and FSBOmadison.com has the right, at their discretion, to retrieve the post and steel from said property. 
  3. FSBOmadison.com is available to perform requested service 5 days per week per their regular schedule.    
  4. Posts may remain on properties as long as the listing contract is valid.  In the event the sellers cancel the contract, withdraw this listing, the listing expires, or the property is sold, FSBOmadison.com is to be notified within 48 hours to remove the post and sign.  You should not attempt to remove it yourselves.  If multiple trips have to be made to retrieve our materials because a property owner removed the post and sign and placed it somewhere that FSBOmadison.com could not access it, a trip charge will be assessed!
  5. When a sign is installed, a door tag is left at the property with some basic information about our services so the homeowner can contact us directly if necessary. 
  6. Signs are always placed for maximum visibility and exposure.  If no direction is given, our installers will use their discretion for placement.  If there is a problem with where the sign is placed, contact FSBOmadison.com directly.  DO NOT ATTEMPT TO MOVE THE POST YOURSELF.  Our installers are trained to install posts safely and legally.  
  7. Snow Removal – While we will remove some snow for the sign installation, we do not have the proper equipment to dig through snow and ice.  It is up to our installer’s discretion in terms of placing a sign near a driveway – if there is evidence that a plow may come through and potentially damage our post and your sign, the sign will be installed further back in the yard.
  8. Removal – notify FSBOmadison.com immediately when a property sells, expires or is withdrawn.  DO NOT attempt to remove the post and/or steel yourself.  Removing the post and leaving the steel exposed is a huge liability.  Contact FSBOmadison.com and we will arrange to remove both as quickly as possible.  Occasionally in the winter we are unable to remove the steel due to the ground freezing, however, we always place a protective cap over the steel and let the homeowner know we will return to retrieve the steel as soon as the weather permits.
  9. Brochure boxes – should you choose to use your own brochure box, you must find an alternate way of displaying the box rather than placing it on ASI’s post.  Most companies that sell boxes also sell push-in stakes that the boxes can be attached to.  If we see a box attached to our post that was not placed there by ASI, we will remove it and leave it at the property.
  10. Personal property – If you add a rider to our post that you want back, please be sure and retrieve it before we remove the sign.  ASI is not responsible for personal property left on a sign at the time of removal. 
  11. DO NOT place stickers or put anything on our posts that may damage the finish.  If you need something added to the post, please contact we will arrange for this to be done.
  12. Properties that require flagging:
    a) Condominiums* – Be sure the condo association will allow signs, find out where the designated area for signs is, and then flag where the sign can be placed.  Provide a description of where the flag is on the order form so that we can locate it particularly if it is not in front of the condo that is for sale.
    b) Vacant Land/Lots* – In addition to flagging the lot, we will need a plat map or a Google earth map indicating where the lot is located.  GPS coordinates are also extremely helpful in these cases.
    c) Directional Signs* – It is illegal for a sign to be placed in the right of way or on a property that is not for sale unless the owner of that property has granted permission.  If you must have a directional sign, please flag the property where you want the sign, provide detailed instructions along with the property owner’s name and phone number so that we know from whom you obtained permission.  Many offices are now using smaller push-in arrow signs for this as the municipalities are less strict with placement of these smaller signs.
    d) New Construction* – Please provide a plat map along with the lot number and an address if there is one.  Be aware that when you request a sign to be placed on a lot where construction is occurring, there is a high probability that our post and your sign will be damaged or destroyed as the crew does their work on the site.  To avoid this, consider waiting to have a sign installed until most of the construction is completed.  If the sign has to be installed before completion, ask the foreman on site to flag the lot where it will cause the least amount of disruption for the workers.  Please instruct the foreman that our materials are not to be moved by anyone but ASI staff.  If our materials are damaged or destroyed, FSBOmadison.com may bill you for the damage.
    e) Properties that have an invisible fence or sprinkler system.  Please flag the property  so that no damage occurs to these underground systems.
    f) Properties that are tricky to find or don’t have an address listed on the house or a fire number – Detailed instructions to the property should be given – example:  Go 2.5 miles on Main Street, turn west on Church, go 1.3 miles to Olive Road – house is yellow with green shutters, etc.  If you have a photo of the house, please send it along.  GPS coordinates are also helpful.
  13. ASI guarantees their workmanship.  If a sign needs repair due to the ground thawing or faulty installation, there is no charge.  If the sign panel fails (either no grommets on the sign or the grommets failed), or if we need to repair a rider that you installed yourself, a trip charge may be assessed.  If the property is outside of Dane County, ring charges will be added to the trip charge fee.  If it is deemed that the sign was moved by someone other than ASI personnel and now needs repair, a fee will be assessed.  If our property is damaged due to someone other than ASI personnel moving or removing our materials, the agent will be charged.  If a sign is moved by non-ASI personnel and property damage occurs, ASI will not be held liable for said damage.
  14. Along with watching for possible repairs on our regular routes, ASI performs periodic spot-checks on posts that are in the field.  If we drive past anything that does not meet our professional standards, we’ll stop and repair it leaving a door tag with the homeowner giving you credit for the repair so that they know you are watching out for them.  
  15. If any of these terms and conditions are violated by a seller, FSBOmadison.com has the right to terminate that seller’s account and remove all of our materials from the field.

We Know... Its confusing
...We're sorry!

Wisconsin state law prohibits a licensee (Brokerage) from advertising a property for sale without a listing contract and a visual inspection for your property. But, because FSBOmadison is NOT a brokerage, you are able to advertise your property for sale on our website!  To add your property to the MLS, we have associated with a licensed brokerage, The McGrady Group LLC,  to provide you with this service and we need to be sure that the services we offer are paid for and clearly kept separate to avoid any confusion.

FSBO Madison Yard SIgn

A FSBO yard sign is a vital marketing tool, bridging the digital and physical worlds to attract potential buyers, signal professionalism, and facilitate connections within the community. It serves as a beacon of trust and opportunity, transcending its physical presence to symbolize credibility and legitimacy in the competitive property market.

DISPLAYING A PROPERTY'S LAYOUT

A floor plan is a great way to show the layout of rooms in a building. Often photographs alone cannot convey this information. Floor plans, on the other hand, offer a clear, bird’s-eye view of the entire space, allowing buyers to grasp the relationships between rooms, their sizes, and how they connect.
