5 Reasons to Hire a REALTOR®

1. Every state has a different contract and requirements regarding a sale of a property. A REALTOR® is an expert in their market and can guide you thru the process.

2. There are a lot of actions that can take place during a real estate transaction, you want someone who has the knowledge to guide you thru those actions.

3. A REALTOR® has the training to help you with negotiating the sales price and repairs that may be needed.

4. It is important to price your property correctly from the start to attract the right buyers and shorten your marketing time. According to the "National Association of REALTORS", the typical FSBO home in 2014 sold for $208,000 compared to $235,000 with an agent assisted sale. Get the most by hiring a Professional.

5. With so much information on the internet and news, how do you know what is going on specific to your neighborhood? Hire an agent  who has the knowledge and training to make your buying/selling experience a smooth and educational one.

Bottom line: You would not trust your health to someone that works on cars. A financial decision as important as a Real Estate transaction is should be handled by a Real Estate Professional such as a REALTOR®.

New Year! Happy 2015!

Common First-Time Home Buyer Mistakes

1. They don’t ask enough questions of their lender and end up missing out on the best deal.

2. They don’t act quickly enough to make a decision and someone else buys the house.

3. They don’t find the right agent who’s willing to help them through the homebuying process.

4. They don’t do enough to make their offer look appealing to a seller.

5. They don’t think about resale before they buy. The average first-time buyer only stays in a home for four years.
