179 Reasons Why Buyers Should Use a Realtor®

Let's face it, buying a home can be a frustrating and try-my-patience experience for buyers. Those that believe they know best, and think they can work their way through the process on their own, often hit roadblocks they have no idea how to navigate through.

That is all the more reason why all types of buyers (first time, step-up, step-down, final home, new construction, investors, etc.) should utilize the services of a professional to help them seek out, find, contract, and close on the home of their choosing. NO ONE understands or knows the local real estate market better than local Realtors®.

Still not sure why you need an agent or what they can do for you that you cannot already do yourself? Check out this handy list of 179 reasons why buyers should use a Realtor®!

Hello Anita Clark 

Another excellent post (this should be a feature).

If this list doesn't convince home buyers to work with a professional, nothing will!

This post is almost overwhelming, which goes to show that buyuers and sellers alike can easily become overwhelmed going it on their own.

They would be very surprised, Sally.

My thoughts as well. Thanks Lisa.

Tammy: Exactly the reason why buyers need to work with an agent who will do most of this for them...often times seamlessly.

WOW, Anita. After seeing this infographic, I wonder why any buyer or seller would want to go it alone without the assistance of a local REALTOR.

WOW Anita, we do work hard, don't we? I'm ready to rest after reading this post. Reality is, buyers have no reason to play the role of a Realtor. Let the professionals do what they do best.
