- I am very familiar with
competitive houses so I can help you
position your home well.
- Homes are bought by comparison.
I have a large inventory at my
disposal through MLS while you have
an inventory of one.
- It is hard negotiating for
yourself. I have lots of experience
in writing contracts and can
negotiate aggressively on your
behalf.
- Buyers are not always forthright
about their financial situation. I
insist on pre-qualifying before I
even bring you an offer.
- My lender contacts and mortgage
experience help buyers get the
financing they need.
- Unqualified buyers can tie up
your home. I make sure that doesn't
happen.
- Most buyers don't want to tell
the seller why they don't make an
offer. I can probe the buyer or
his/her agent for that information.
- Any follow up you do with a
buyer can be seen as desperation. I
follow up as part of my job so that
you are not perceived in a
compromising light.
- I can showcase your improvements
better so that you don't appear like
you are "selling."
- Most sellers who spend their
time as a For Sale By Owner end up
by listing in the end. A recent NAR
survey found that only 11% of
sellers nationally ended up selling
by owner. Why spend your time and
money if in the end you will hire a
Realtor®?

- An NAR survey
of recent closed sellers found that
Realtor®-assisted sales brought in
an average of 20% higher sales price
than For Sale By Owner sales.
- A FSBO sign makes you
vulnerable for any curiosity seeker
or unsavory character. When you
list, only buyers accompanied by a
Realtor® will get into your house.
- Personality
conflicts with a buyer can get in
the way. I come between the buyer
and the seller so that personalities
don't enter in.
- Most buyers use a
Realtor®, which increases the number
of buyers who will see your home.
- I can
mobilize my company agents and other
area Realtors® on your behalf.
- Being accessible to show
your home limits your personal time
and cuts down the available showing
time. When you list, your property
will be available during normal
showing hours and the prospect will
always be accompanied by me or
another Realtor®.
- Additional
exposure through MLS and the
Internet brings you a higher price.
- I orchestrate the
contract-to-closing process,
including the appraisal, buyer-loan
process, title, inspections, survey,
etc., taking this burden off of you.
- I make sure
that you are compliant with all laws
relating to the sale of your home.
