5 reasons to use a Realtor
Education and Experience
You don’t need to stay up nights searching online about buying and selling real estate if you hire a professional that has the education and practical experience to guide you thru the process. As agents, we have a fiduciary responsibility to put our client needs first. As the great Henry Ford once said, When you hire people smarter than you are, it proves you are smarter than they are!
Agents are Buffers ( and have superhero powers!)
Agents keep the peace by working with licensed agents working with qualified buyers. We protect and serve you by keeping your interest ahead of ours. And we have been known to keep other agents from biting at your heels when you are just looking online or at an open house. (that’s where the superhero powers come into play!)
Market Conditions Information and Neighborhood Knowledge
Real Estate Agents can research and disclose market condition information which will govern your selling or buying process. How many houses have sold this year in your neighborhood? Check! How many months will it take to deplete the current inventory in your city? Check, Check! Your neighbor’s house was listed and you don’t know what it sold for or what it looked like inside? Easy Peasy…We’ve got you covered!
Price Guidance
Contrary to popular belief Real Estate agents do not select the prices for sellers or buyers. That is all on the customer! We can’t look into the future ( how can we get THAT superpower?) but we can check out the past and guide you based on current conditions and trends. Final say all rests on your shoulders, and please don’t rely on the “Zestimate.”
Negotiation Skills and Confidentiality
Real Estate Agents have the power to negotiate because unlike most buyers and sellers we have the ability to remove ourselves emotionally from the transaction and because we are skilled at doing so. You could also call us negotiating ninjas. It is a big part of our job description and one of the most important. The old saying “your secret is safe with us? , rings true in Real Estate too! Agents have a duty to protect all that you hold dear. Unless if you know where Jimmy Hoffa really is buried. That one we may have to let slip.
