Why use a Realtor?

Benefits of using a Realtor

Real estate transactions involve one of the biggest financial investments most people experience in their lifetime. Transactions today usually exceed $100,000. If you had a $100,000 income tax problem, would you attempt to deal with it without the help of a CPA? If you had a $100,000 legal question, would you deal with it without the help of an attorney? Considering the small upside cost and the large downside risk, it would be foolish to consider a deal in real estate without the professional assistance of a Realtor. But if you are still not convinced of the value of a Realtor, contact us so that we can explain all the benefits of using a professional in the sale of your home.

When a property is marketed with the help of your REALTOR®, you do not have to allow strangers into your home.

Research has shown that prospective buyers are knowledgeable, looking at an average of 12 homes. A property priced in line with its competition will receive all the benefits of proper pricing.
