Strictly speaking, you don’t NEED to hire a realtor to sell your home successfully – you can do it on your own! But it takes a lot of intensive work to negotiate the sale of a home from beginning to end, and if a licensed realtor can lift some of the weight from your shoulders, it might be best to consider hiring one. After all, you still have more work ahead of you – finding your own new home and starting the process anew from the buyer’s side. But guess what? A realtor can help with that, too! Here are some reasons why you should seriously consider hiring an experienced realtor like Hector M. Ruiz and America’s Finest Property Management.
What Does a Realtor Do For You?
A good realtor is by your side from the start of the sale process to the final signing of the paperwork. Here are a few key tasks that a realtor can handle for you during the sale of your property.
Deciding a Price
How much is your property worth? There are so many factors that can impact your home’s value, ranging from its condition to the school district it’s located in. A realtor is aware of the best approach to take toward pricing your property. This may involve coordinating appraisals and inspections, comparing your listing to other homes available for sale in the area, and seeing your home for its potential rather than its current state – all things that will help your realtor figure out who best to market your home to.
Preparing Your Home For Sale
In our last post, we talked about some things that may boost your home’s marketability. Namely, this can include seeing to those repairs you’ve been putting off and staging your home for prospective buyers. But the work doesn’t stop there. You have to figure out how you mean to present your home to those who might be interested.
Marketing Your Property
How do you get your home on the radar for the best possible buyers? This means considering where you intend to market it, whether through online listing presentations or having your realtor reach out directly to interested parties. Will you stage open houses? Will your home be listed online? A realtor can help you identify the best strategies for marketing your home, ensuring that it’s being presented to only the best possible buyers. They can even provide you with the right yard signage!
Securing a Buyer
So you have an interested party! Congratulations! The work doesn’t stop there, though. There’s a great deal of red tape surrounding the purchase of a home. In addition to making sure the right possible buyers are seeing your property, a realtor can help you screen the best candidates for buying your home. This process will include ensuring that the buyer is qualified, negotiating an offer that works for both parties, and seeing the purchase through to completion.
