With so much information available online, many homeowners entertain the idea of selling their property without an agent. Before you decide to go it alone, consider these key points:
REALTORS ARE LICENSED PROFESSIONALS
We are taught and tested by governing agencies of the state, and must operate under strict laws put forth by such. We are required to complete continuing education credits, and are constantly learning. Think all agents do is stick a sign in the yard, hold an open house, and fill out a couple of papers? Keep in mind that plenty of professions look easy when you aren't the one performing them.
EXPOSURE TO PROSPECTIVE BUYERS

This innocent action can end up causing a ton of headaches in the long run.
Why? Well because, as a Buyer, if you end up wanting a home that you visited without your Agent; then you may be forced to work only with the Agent who made the home available to you at the time.

Putting you to fend for yourself in a situation where you love a home but have zero leverage in negotiations.
Do everyone a favor, and just call your Agent. That’s what your Agent wants, is for you to call them for anything and everything regarding the Home Buying and Selling Process.

That’s right, as a potential Home Seller, should you invest your money into a pool or into your kitchen? And the answer is simple, sort of.
The Kitchen, is arguably the most important section of the house. It’s where we eat. It’s where we gather and share great conversations with great
Home Staging - When it comes to selling a home, having it properly staged is Priority Number One in our books.
The concept of Home Staging has evolved over the last decade, even just over the last five years to be honest. What was once acceptable back then might be outright taboo, today. It’s more sophisticated now, becoming an art. Gone are the days where just rearranging your furniture with some minor tweaks throughout the house are going to cut it. Not if you really want to get your asking price (or even over your asking), and get it fast.
