TEN GOOD REASONS FOR USING A REALTOR
It is unlikely that you can afford to gamble with what has probably been
the largest single investment
you have made, namely your home. You may be surprised to learn, however,
that some people are
willing to take that chance.
Selling a home without the help of a REALTOR is not as easy as it may
appear to the uninitiated. Ask
yourself the following: Do I know its true market value? Am I aware of
the legal 'ins and outs'? Can I
arrange suitable financing? Can I qualify a potential buyer? Can I negotiate
to a successful close?
Can I write an enforceable contract? In today's market, you get what
you pay for and if you want the job done right, you use a professional.
Today's complex market demands expertise and market resources not
available to the average citizen.
There are several very compelling reasons why you should enlist the professional
services of a
REALTOR. Consider the following:
-
Chances are your REALTOR can get you a higher price for your property
than if you tried to sell
it yourself.
-
You will likely sell your home a lot faster when you use the services
of a REALTOR.
-
Listing your home for sale through a REALTOR on
the Victoria Real Estate Board's Multiple
Listing Service® (MLS®) means you get the widest possible exposure
for your home. MLS® is
a cooperative marketing system designed to bring sellers and buyers
together.
-
REALTORS have the skills and resources to market your home effectively.
-
Your REALTOR knows your neighbourhood - they assess
market conditions and property
values daily.
-
Your REALTOR has been educated on the complex laws and regulations
in real estate and is
trained to put together a legally binding contract.
-
Negotiating price is an art. Your REALTOR will negotiate objectively
in order to get the best
possible price for your home.
-
REALTORS are on call and are usually available seven days a week
to show your home.
-
Your REALTOR is aware of the many options available
for financing the sale, and has the latest
information on mortgages.
-
Moving up or down? Your REALTOR can open the doors
to thousands of properties through
MLS® and provide you with an up-to-date computerized list of
homes suited to your needs,
wants and budget.
If you are serious about selling your home, then you should seriously
consider using the experts.
REALTORS are real estate marketing specialists. Let them deliver the
professional service you
deserve.
