You are getting ready to sell your home and you really need to get all the money you can to purchase a new one, pay off bills or whatever.  You’re thinking “I can do this myself and save money".  Right?  We’ll think again.

 

You need a Realtor for several reasons.  Here are the reasons:

1.  Security - Someone knocks on your door and wants to see your home and being so excited you let them in and show them around.  You point out everything you have done to the home and what you have in it.  You know nothing about this person or persons.  They could be looking at the layout to come back later and rob you.  Now I don’t want to scare you but this does happen.

 

Realtors meet their clients and get them pre-qualified before showing homes, or most of them do.  They know who they are working with, where they live now and what they do for a living.

 

2.  Paperwork - Do you feel comfortable filling out all the paperwork.  Do you know what has to be disclosed?  Is everything you are doing legal?  Not sure?

 

3.  Showings - Are you available from 9AM-8PM to show your home, 7 days a week?

 

4.  Can you see the Trees for the Forest?  Meaning you have lived in your home and like the surroundings. Can you see it needs to be cleaned or that you need to get rid of some of the furniture? 

 

5.  Marketing - Have you even thought about marketing your home besides putting up a sign in the front yard?

 

6.  Pricing - Sellers who use Realtors normally get more for their home than if a seller just sold it themselves.  They also sell quicker due to the extensive marketing done.

 

Realtors know what sells!  It’s their jobs!  If you look for a Realtor that has a CRS - Certified Residential Specialist Certification than you have the Best of the Best.  In order to get this designation a Realtor must sell a certain number of homes in so many years.  They also have to under go numerous classes regarding Real Estate and Investing.  A CRS Designation is the Symbol of Excellence in Real Estate.  There are millions of Realtors but there is only 37,000 that have this designation.
