WHAT'S NEW?
The biggest reason given by home sellers for attempting to sell their home on their own is to avoid paying an agent's commission. However, statistics have historically pointed out the fact that when a homeowner lists with an agent, they can expect to net more money.....even afterpaying a commission! This infographic, provided by the National Association of REALTORS®, shows the disparity in sold prices between sellers who list, sellers who don't and sellers who eventually do.
The bottom line is...
A recent survey of real estate agents by ActiveRain has confirmed that there are certain things a seller should avoid if they are trying to get their home sold for the best price in the least amount of time.
The results of this survey are no surprise to real estate agents, but sellers need to understand that eliminating as many hurdles as possible to the sale of your home will help you achieve your desired outcome.
