Are you thinking about selling your home yourself? Before you move down that path, here are some things to consider:
With the onset of spring, buyer demand is up and is higher than the inventory on the market. Given that, now is the best time to sell your home and how you do could mean more money in your pocket.
When hiring a broker, most clients get more money in their pocket and have less stress during the whole process. Also, hiring a realtor is free for homebuyers since sellers pay their commissions. By deciding to sale a home on your own, you limit the exposure on the home which limits the home activity, offers, and a lower sell price.
As realtors, we use a Multiple Listing Service (MLS) which allows us to view homes right when they go on the market. With various criteria fields we can narrow down on exactly what you are looking for to ensure you find your dream home.
There are advantages for the seller to when using a broker too. Did you know:
- 6-9% of FSBO accounted for all home sells in 2013 nationally
- 18% said their most difficult task was performing and understanding the paperwork
- 14% said it was {difficult to know if they were} getting the right price. On average, a home sold for $230,000 with an agent compared to $184,000 when selling directly by owner.
On average, agents only sell a handful of homes per year, but here at My Ogden Agent, with our proven proactive plan, we are a cut above the rest. Give us a call today at 801-458-6467 and let us show you what we can do for you to make your move a reality.
