More than 80 percent of all houses sold are sold through a real estate
professional and the number is growing. Why? Research shows that more
than half the homebuyers find out about a house through their Realtor
and not through an advertisement. Another reason is that homes sold
through a Realtor put more money in the pocket of the seller.
Most people are apprehensive about dealing with a home owner. They
don't want to ask embarrassing questions about a home's maintenance or
problem areas. Likewise, the seller may not be comfortable with hard
questions about a prospective buyer's ability to pay.
If and when you decide it's time to move, your Realtor will devote his
or her time to promoting your property, screening inquiries, and
showing the property. Your Realtor should also be knowledgeable about
the market, other real estate services, disclosure laws, inspection
regulations, financial matters, and much more.
Your Realtor will be a vital ally and partner in getting your house
sold. He or she can offer invaluable suggestions to make your property
more attractive, and will assist you with pricing, exposure in the
market, negotiations, and closing.
Selling
your home should be a process that goes quickly, smoothly and
profitably. The process is inherently time-consuming and stressful.
Partnering with a Realtor will ease the stress and enhance the process
and the sale.
Your Realtor will help you sell your property quickly, and assist you
in finding a new home as well. Communicating openly will enhance your
experience and get you the best service possible. Your Realtor brings
a wealth of information, knowledge, and skill that's invaluable in
selling your house, buying a new one, and establishing a long-term,
professional relationship with you and your family.
