List Your Home Without a Real Estate Agent
Can Colorado homeowners and investors list their homes without using a real estate agent?
More importantly, if they can, should they?
Property owners and investors are forced to make these real estate agent decisions every day.
There are some advantages to neglecting the assistance of a listing agent. There are also times when not using a professional can cost you much more than initially. A do-it-yourself approach can reap massive rewards or cause massive migraines.
Those with a good real estate education should have a good foundation in which to start. However, that doesn’t mean it is always smart or gets you the most value at the end of the day.
What if I need to sell fast?
If you are selling your home with little time or heading to foreclosure, you might want to consider selling to a reputable real estate investment firm.
What if I am an investor?
Investors that rely on buying and selling houses every day to generate an income should consider teaming up with agents in your market. The time you gain back from hiring a GOOD real estate agent permits you to pursue more investment opportunities!
Should YOU use an agent?
Many seriously underestimate the value of an excellent real estate agent. When you hire an agent, their commission usually includes marketing, showings, negotiating, paperwork, and managing the closing process. These tasks can be costly and extremely time-consuming.
Plus, those regularly buying and selling homes can generally negotiate huge discounts on real estate agent commissions. What if you only had to fork over 3 percent, instead of 6 or 7 percent?
Would that change your mind?
