Reasons You Need a Real Estate
Agent
 |
A real estate transaction is
complicated. In most cases, buying or selling a home requires
disclosure forms, inspection reports, mortgage documents,
insurance policies, deeds, and multi-page government-mandated
settlement statements. A knowledgeable guide through this
complexity can help you avoid delays or costly mistakes. |
|
Selling or buying a home is
time consuming. Even in a strong market, homes in our area stay
on the market for an average of 90 days. And it usually takes
another 60 days or so for the transaction to close after an
offer is accepted. |
|
Real estate has its own
language. If you don't know a CMA from a PUD, you can understand
why it's important to work with someone who speaks that
language.
|
|
Real estate agents have done it
before. Most people buy and sell only a few homes in a lifetime,
usually with quite a few years in between each purchase. And
even if you've done it before, laws and regulations change.
That's why having an expert on your side is critical. |
|
Real estate agents provide
objectivity. Since a home often symbolizes family, rest, and
security, not just four walls and roof, home selling or buying
is often a very emotional undertaking. And for most people, a
home is the biggest purchase they'll every make. Having a
concerned, but objective, third party helps you keep focused on
both the business and emotional issues most important to you.
