Are you ready to list your house for sale?
You might be tempted to sell your property without the assistance of a real estate agent to avoid paying a commission. Although it may be tempting, the risks of going alone usually outweigh the benefits!
When you're working by yourself, it's considerably more difficult. It's a demanding procedure that involves paperwork, legal and financial documentation, negotiations, marketing, and follow-up.
There is much jargon used in real estate sales that you, as a seller, might need to become more familiar with.
Having few potential (let alone qualified) buyers, making emotional choices, being unable to negotiate appropriately, and needing more spare time are all risks of selling your property without the proper help.
A reliable real estate agent can go a long way toward assisting you in finding the right buyer. Here are some reasons to list your home with a real estate agent:
AGENTS BRING A WEALTH OF EXPERIENCE TO THE TABLE!
An agent can determine whether a potential buyer is qualified or just a dreamer or nosy neighbour who wants to visit your home. Every time you put your life on hold, make your home look flawless, and show it, it is inconvenient. You should limit those hassles to the showings that have the best chance of resulting in a sale. Real Estate agents ask qualifying questions to determine a prospect's authenticity, qualification, and motivation.
For how long the buyers have been looking, whether they have seen any other homes that would suit their needs, whether they are paying cash or have been prequalified, what schools they are looking for, and other questions are all examples of closing questions that your agent is trained to ask.
YOU CAN AVOID AN EMOTIONAL SALE
When selling a home dear to you, the lines between business and emotions can be blurred. A real estate agent can prevent you from overpricing or underpricing your house, accepting offers that are below average for the area, and dealing with a buyer's unfavourable feedback. Your agent will spot the right offer in the right market and at the right time.
IMPARTIAL EYE
Agents give you unbiased advice and information. A professional real estate agent will assist you through the home-buying process with an impartial eye, assisting you in achieving your purchase goals while staying within your budget. Agents are a fantastic resource for inquiries regarding neighbourhood amenities, utilities, RERA regulations, contractors, DLD ( Dubai Land Department Rules) and much more!
