WHY USE A REALTOR VS FOR SALE BY OWNER
If you are planning to sell your home, it's probably crossed your mind to try to sell it yourself and save the sales commission. However, there are very good reasons why that could be a mistake. According to HomeGain.com
and Realtor.org, more homes listed by real estate agents are sold than homes marketed by their owners, and they sell more quickly for more money.
Sellers can rely on me to help them make the best decisions when selling a home. As a listing agent, I can provide local comps to ensure competitive sales price that will meet appraisal for buyers financing. I will market your home for optimum exposure and verify that a potential buyer is financially approved, ready to purchase. I will negotiate the right deal so you can sell your home and move on to bigger and better things. As your buyer's agent, I'll help you find the perfect home and negotiate the best possible deal. We serve Conroe, Texas and all surrounding counties to ensure that everyone looking to buy or sell a home gets the best value as they grow and move up in life.
WHY YOU NEED A REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONAL
I work with buyers and sellers, providing representation, as well as intermediary representation and transactions. If you're considering whether or not selling is in your best interest, I offer property evaluations which could help your decision. It is important to compare your home to recent sales in the area to calculate a realistic price suggestion. Other advantages of using a real estate professional include:
