Do I need a Real Estate Listing Agent?

Seller
Written By Gina Madeya

HGTV makes what we do seem so simple. And because it may look easy, in an attempt to save on real estate commissions some sellers think they can sell without an agent. Here’s the reality. Only 11% of For Sale By Owner (FSBOS) actually succeed. And if they do? Those homes sell for about 26% less on average than agent represented properties.

Why?

FSBOs find it hard to price correctly, can’t effectively market their home, have to schedule all the showings, and communicate with ALL parties including the buyer, buyer’s broker, buyer’s lender, and title & escrow while assuming all legal liability associated with the purchase and sale contract. Bottom line, Real estate transactions can be complex and there is a lot of money on the line. Having a trusted advisor with proven results by your side is key to ensuring your sales success.
