I like to read Dave Ramsey's columns...always useful advice and things to think about. Last week his column really hit home, no pun intended :) So, for all of the potential home sellers and buyers out there, here it is:
Dear Dave,
What are the advantages of using a real estate agent versus going the for-sale-by-owner route when it comes to selling a home?
Seth
Dear Seth,
I've had a real estate license for 30 years. If I were to put my personal residence on the market today, I'd use an active real estate agent who really knows his or her stuff in the marketplace. I'd gladly pay them their commission, too. Now, why would I do that if I could just sell it myself and save the commission cost? For starters...
To read the rest of Dave's answer, go to his June 7, 2010 column by clicking here. Thanks Dave!
