Reasons For Hiring a REALTOR®
Experience
You don’t need to know everything about buying and selling real estate if you hire a real estate professional who does. Also, a realtor can help you put your home on the market at the right moment and at the right price.
Agents are Buffers
Agents take the spam out of your property showings and visits. If you’re a seller, your agent will filter all those phone calls that lead to nowhere from lookie loos and try to induce serious buyers to immediately write an offer.
Neighborhood Knowledge
Agents either possess intimate knowledge or they know where to find the industry buzz about your neighborhood. They can identify comparable sales and hand these facts to you, in addition to pointing you in the direction where you can find more data on schools, crime or demographics. For example, you may know that a home down the street was on the market for $350,000, but an agent will know it had upgrades and sold at $285,000 after 65 days on the market and after twice having the sale collapse.
