Before you make the decision to try to sell your home alone, consider the benefits of a Realtor can provide, that you may not be aware of:
A Realtor understands market conditions and has access to information not available to the average homeowner.
- A Realtor can advertise effectively for the best results and make your homes availability known to thousands of other Realtors.
- A Realtor knows how to help you price your home realistically, to give you the highest price possible within your time frame.
- A Realtor is experienced in creating demand for homes and how to show them to their best advantage (staging).
- A Realtor knows how to screen potential Buyers and eliminate those who can’t qualify or are looking for bargin-basement prices.
A Realtor knows how to go toe-to-toe in negotiations.
- A Realtor is always “on-call” answering the phone at all hours, and showing homes evenings and weekends. Well not all of them we have found, but we are “on-call” most hours of everyday. In our absence we will have an associate step in for us.
- A realtor can remain objective when presenting offers and counter-offers on your behalf.
- A Realtor maintains errors-and-omissions insurance.
- A Realtor will listen to your needs, respect your opinions and allow you to make your own decisions.
- A Realtor can help protect your rights, particularly important with the increasingly complicated real estate laws and regulations.
- A Realtor is experience with resolving problems to ensure a successful closing on your home.
Only you can determine whether you should attempt to sell your home, probably your largest investment, all alone. Talk with a Realtor before you decide. You may find working with a professional is a lot less expensive and much more beneficial than you ever imagined!
