Question:
Shouldn't I sell my home on my own so I can save the
commission?
Answer:
Selling 'For Sale by Owner' is like
representing yourself in court instead of having an attorney represent
you.. It can be very costly and very, very stressful, and you may be
putting your biggest asset in jeopardy!
Selling your home on your own can actually cost you more money than
if you listed your home with a Realtor. Normally a real estate company can
get you more money for your home which actually offsets any money you
would save by selling on your own.
My recommendation: List your home with an expert You'll get more money for
your home, close sooner, and get to closing with fewer problems! |
Question:
Should I buy a home without a real estate agent representing me?
Answer:
Houses up 'For Sale by Owner' are
typically overpriced by as much as $10,000 to $15,000 and sometimes even
more. Even if you get them to come down you are not really saving any
money. Also you lose all of the knowledge and protection gained by having
an experienced real estate agent represent you.
My recommendation: Buyers Beware! Find an experienced Realtor to do your negotiating.
You'll be glad you did!
