Top 10 Reasons to Use
a Realtor®
In today’s economy, some
feel they may try to sell their homes themselves using For Sale By
Owner sites. While this may seem like a good idea, here are some
reasons why you should choose a Realtor®.
-
More Time Saved – A Realtor®
can save you time by holding open
 houses
and scheduling showings that are convenient to buyers and not
tied to your schedule. You don’t even have to be home or in
town!
-
More Exposure
– A Realtor® can list your home on
www.har.com . This is one of the nation’s best websites for
prospective buyers. Your home can also be seen on
www.realtor.com and in various real estate publications.
-
Less worry
– No need to worry and hope that someone “might” drive by and
see your sign. Through the internet and connections with other
realtors and prospective buyers your home WILL be seen.
-
Less stress
– A Realtor® will only bring interested buyers to your home
that, more than likely have already previewed it on the
internet. You will have fewer people who just want to snoop at
your house.
-
You try selling your home on your own to save money on the
commission. Most buyers who shop the For-Sale-By-Owner
marketplace are doing so because THEY want to save the
commission.
-
Most buyers would much rather buy through a Realtor® because
they then can have an independent party who will be responsible
to them and their interests.
-
A majority of For-Sale-By-Owners eventually end up using an
agent to get the price they want.
-
Prospective buyers rarely feel comfortable voicing their
opinions directly to homeowners. You will be left not knowing
why your home isn’t selling.
-
Most buyers don’t hesitate to tell their Realtor® their opinion
of your home. Having a Realtor® to act as a sounding board
allows the buyer to let off a little negative steam. The
Realtor® can then help overcome the objections and minimize its
impact by giving an unbiased opinion and perspective. You
receive accurate feedback.
A
Realtor® brings experience, marketing, connections and expertise.
They take care of the details so you can go on with your life. You
can rest assured you received the best price for your home –
usually more than if you sell it on your own. |
