SellMyHouse.com has a national investor and Realtor network providing services that include cash purchases, FSBO & MLS services, online auction platforms, short-sale mitigation services, as well as a variety of other options for home buyer and sellers.

Under the cooperative marketing arrangement, SellMyHouse.com’s local affiliates will be able to capitalize on AmericanTowns’ brand 1) by encouraging adoption of AmericanTowns.com as their communities 'information resource' center, 2) by providing AmericanTowns tools and services for free to local community organizations and 3) by offering advertising services to businesses seeking to expand their brand.
