What is the best for you?

For Sale By Owner (FSBO) could work well for you. Someone in the neighborhood, a friend, or someone who drives by may possibly pay you a good price and you won't have to pay a comission to an agent. If that happens, I congratulate you on your good fortune. I hope your offer makes it through closing with no legal, repair, or credit issues. There are many steps necessary to sell your home, including making the house ready to show, marketing, legal disclosure paperwork, showing your home to potential buyers, negotiating the sales price, completing a contract for sale, ordering a title search, getting pest and home inspections, making needed repairs, getting an appraisal, handling any legal issues, and finally the closing itself. If you have sold a home before that experience may help you.

Your schedule and financial situation will help to determine if you are successful at selling on your own. Are you available on nights and weekends to wait for calls from potential buyers? Can you take calls at work during the day? Will you have time to show potential buyers your home? Are you comfortable paying for all of the marketing? Do you know how to effectively market your home online?  Do you know which legal forms and documents you need and how to fill them out? Do you know which closing attorney to use? Will you be comfortable showing your home to people you do not know? Can you make sure they are qualified with a bank first?

Maybe you will not be bothered by showings and lowball offers from those not really serious about making a fair offer? Be ready as many buyers who will call are "just looking". A few are investors or buyers looking to buy a house for a "steal",hoping you do not know the true market value of your home. On the average, an FSBO offer is about 80% of the asking price. If you have spent months trying to sell your home on your own, lowball offers may start to sound good. Hopefully none of this happens to you. You might improve your chances of success by allowing agents to show your home for a buyer's agent fee. Call or Email me for details!

What if I can sell your house, and leave you with a higher price than you might get on your own even after my commission?

Would you think about using my professional help if it may get you more money at closing? I will tailor my services to meet your needs. Homes listed with a Realtor tend to sell faster, with fewer showings, and for 16% more than homes sold without a Realtor. Every month your home is on the market you are making mortgage payments; the faster your home sells the less you will make in payments. The faster you sell the more you save!

My goal is to show you how I will tailor my services to you to sell your home faster and for more. If you save time and make more money using me as an agent then we both win. I pay all costs for marketing and advertising your home until it sells. There is no fee until the house sells. Once I am working for you, several hundred other agents from the area working with qualified buyers will be exposed to your home.

What is the best for you? You are the only one who can make that decision.

Don't you owe it to yourself to find out more about what I can do to help you? I may be working with someone in your price range right now. What have you got to lose by contacting me? Schedule a no cost, no obligation presentation and I will show you how I will tailor my real estate service to meet your needs. I can meet with you at a time convenient for you - during the day or in the evening - during the week or on the weekend. Call me at (919)-478-5218 or E-mail me today!
