              Purpose is defined as a reason for which something exists.

The purpose of  a Real Estate Agent is  to offer specialized knowledge in research, marketing and negotiations to help sellers meet their goals.

To assist sellers in the sale of their property, a Real Estate Agent's purpose is to be an advocate and representative when dealing with buyers.  A fair asking price and a marketing plan for maximum exposure needs to be established.  An Agent will advise a seller how to present their home aesthetically to maximize its appeal to buyers.  A Real Estate Agent will screen all written offers, check buyers mortgage qualifications and assist in making counter offers.  After an offer has been accepted, a Real Estate Agent will follow the transaction with home inspection, appraisal and trouble shoot any problems that may arise before closing.

If your planning to sell your home on Staten Island, N.Y.,give me a call and I will tell you about our aggressive marketing plan.  Service to you is our priority!  Visit my Website  for additional information.

Pretty good summary of the responsibilities of a seller's agent.  Too bad more Realtors do not recommend aesthetical improvements.
