5 Reasons You Should Use a Realtor When Selling a Home

The home selling process can be stressful and confusing. Here are 5 reasons why you should use a Realtor when selling your home.


1. Their Expertise Can Save You From Costly Mistakes

Realtors have been taught how to protect your money when dealing with contracts & addendums. They will advise you on what they know, and can also direct you to appraisers, lawyers, or inspectors if necessary. A Realtor can help protect you from beginner mistakes that could cost you in the end.

2. They Have Access to Marketing Not Available to Others

Realtors have access to list your home on the MLS, as well as other sites that their brokerage may be using. This allows more people to view your home online, and provides more opportunities for great offers.


3. For Sale By Owner Homes Are Often Not Priced At Market Value

If you list your home for sale by owner, it is difficult to price it at a correct market value price. If you price it too low, you may undersell it quickly. If you price it too high, your house may sit for months or years without any interest.


4. Realtors Know How to Accurately Price Your Home

By doing a comparable market analysis, Realtors can figure out the market value of your home so that you sell your home for the right price.


5. Realtors Are Experienced Negotiators

When selling your home, it’s important to negotiate well. Using a Realtor is a wise choice - they are skilled and experienced negotiators. Realtors can help you settle on a price that is fair for you.
