5 Reasons You Need a REALTOR
- A real
estate transaction is complicated. In most cases, buying or selling a home
requires disclosure forms, inspection reports, mortgage documents,
insurance policies, deeds, and multi-page government-mandated settlement
statements. A knowledgeable guide through this complexity can help you avoid
delays or costly mistakes.
- Selling
or buying a home is time consuming. Even in a strong market, homes in our
area stay on the market for an average of ____ days. And it usually takes
another 60 days or so for the transaction to close after an offer is accepted.
- Real
estate has its own language. If you don't know a CMA from a PUD, you can
understand why it's important to work with someone who speaks that
language.
- REALTORShave done it before. Most people buy and sell only a few homes in a
lifetime, usually with quite a few years in between each purchase. And
even if you've done it before, laws and regulations change. That's why
having an expert on your side is critical.
- REALTORS
provide objectivity. Since a home often symbolizes family, rest, and security,
not just four walls and roof, homeselling or buying is often a very
emotional undertaking. And for most people, a home is the biggest purchase
they'll ever make. Having a concerned, but objective, third party helps
you keep focused on both the business and emotional issues most important
to you.
