When deciding whether to use a real estate agent or sell
on your own, be sure to carefully weigh the pros and cons so that you make the best decision for your family and
situation. Here is our list of top reasons why most people use
a real estate agent.
1. Real estate agents have market knowledge. Because of
their
access to the most recent market data, agents are able to
give
you advice on realistic purchase and listing prices.
Plus, they can
provide you with a report of comparable homes for sale
and historic
market data, so that you can ensure you’re getting the
most for
your money.
2. They negotiate for you. One of the most difficult
tasks whether
buying or selling a home, is handling the negotiations.
Many times,
real estate agents can help you to get creative with your
offers, so
that you end up with a deal that has your best interests
in mind.
