5 Reasons You Need A
REALTOR®
1.
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.
2.
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 90 days. And it usually takes another 60 days or so for
the transaction to close after an offer is accepted.
3.
Real estate has its own language. CMA,
HUD, TRD, TRR…
4.
REALTORS®
have 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. Even if you’ve done it before, laws and
regulations change, that’s why having an expert on your side is critical.
5.
REALTORS®
provide objectivity. Since a home often symbolizes family, rest, and
security, not just four walls and roof, home selling or buying is often a
very emotional undertaking. 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.
