To assist you with understanding what goes into selling a home in today's real estate market, I have assembled a home seller's guide that briefly describes the process and gives some advice.
Selecting a REALTOR
The most important piece of advice we can give is on how to select a REALTOR. Pricing should never be the primary reason that you select a specific agent! You do not want agents bidding on your listing. Here are some important things you will want to determine:
- The agents reputation and experience: Ask for referrals
- Their marketing plan: Is it customized for your house?
- The agent's sales statistics: For example, the number of houses
sold, number of their listings that failed to sell, days on the market,
list to sales price comparisons.
- How much do you like them? Selling your house is a joint effort!
- Do they have a team? In today's market, you need a team of professionals
working to sell your home.
Choosing our team of professionals can help make an experience that some describe as similar to a root canal, a smooth and painless process!
