FSBOs Down, REALTORS Score! staging, Colorado Springs
According to yesterday’s Natl. Assoc. of Realtors® - Economists’ Outlook blog, FSBOs decreased from 19% to 10% during 1991-2011. The share of Sellers using Realtors or Brokers increased from 77% to 87%. You may have caught this earlier, but I thought it was headline worthy and called for a much needed shout out to both REALTORS and Independent Brokers!
Glad to see this trend fading away.
If you’re thinking of selling, you've researched your market and your competition enough to know there are sharper knives in the drawer (Realtors and Brokers) than you. They are masters at being able to market your property better, optimize your MLS listing, target the right buyer demographic, navigate negotiations, oversee inspections, manage legal paperwork (not a complete list here, by any means) and get you the most profit in the shortest amount of time. Honestly, your home is probably your biggest investment, protect it wisely and rely on the experts in this field who, without a doubt, have your back.
