Reasons to list your home - Whatcom County Real Estate for Sale - An Active Rain Newbie Contest - Fall into Blogging as Fall Approaches

                                                          Top Ten Reasons to List you Home

  • Safety: Posting you phone number on signs, can let strangers know when you are not at home. Inviting people you know nothing about into your home can be dangerous. Agents know something about the people they are showing your home to. 

 

  •  No advertising costs to seller: All advertising costs and marketing costs are absorbed by the listing agent. The listing agent is only paid when your home sells.

  • Tax Deductions: Commissions are Tax Deductible, ask your accountant.

  • For Sale by Owner's Sell for less than listed homes: This will usually pay the Agents commissions!

  • Not at home? Off the Market: For Sale by Owner's homes are only on the Market when the owner is home. No one can be home all of the time!

  • Multiple Listing Service:The exposure your home get with MLS. Your home gets viewed by agents, already working with preapproved buyers.

  • Investment: Often a person's largest investment is their home, and should be treated as such. Investments of this kind should be protected with the use of a professional.

  • Buyer's Agent is not yours! Buyers May have an agent and be represented: the buyer's agent would only have the buyer's best interest in mind and you could be left unprotected!

  • Errors in Paperwork: Errors in paperwork and disclosure issues with the buyer, can cost a For Sale by Owner. In this sue-happy world, a buyer can easily become unhappy.

 

  • The Burden of Making Yourself Available: Every time your home is viewed and the burden of all of the paperwork and legal issue's, would be taken on by the listing agent.

These are 10 great reasons.  Thanks for sharing.  I wonder how many people consider the safety issue when listing their home.

Kryste,

I am amazed at how many don't think about it here in our area! Tax dedutable commissions is another one many don't know about! They are a little less bothered by the commission when they find out they can deduct it!

Have a great week!
