Selling Your House with a REALTOR®

By
Real Estate Agent with Kim Wilbourn Realty

Do people really think about why they should use a REALTOR®? I am sure that  deciding whether or not to use a REALTOR® has a great deal to do with what you feel your capabilities are. Do most people feel confident that they can assist the buyer in obtaining financing,and having  the knowledge of legal contracts?

Do the majority of sellers today use a REALTOR®? Wouldn't they feel more entrusting to allow a REALTOR® handle the sale of their largest investment? Also many sellers would rather use a REALTOR® because of the confusing and complex issues and legal aspects they would have to deal with, not to mention the costs of advertising.

REALTORS® have many connections to home inspectors, closing attorneys, and mortgage lenders that they can help you with. In addition a REALTOR® is able to help you with negotiating.

So how do you choose a REALTOR®?

Things to look for in a REALTOR®:                        

                 

  • Professional
  • Full Time or Part Time
  • Familiar with area/price
  • Advertising/Marketing
  • Keeping You Informed on Progress
  • Member of MLS(Multiple Listing Service)

Also you might would want to ask a family member, friend, or co-worker if they have a person they have used so you could get some feedback from them. Just make sure you feel comfortable and have confidence in the REALTOR®

Selling your house can be very emotional, but it is also a business venturee and should not be taken lightly.

Hope this information will be helpful when selecting a REALTOR®.
