Risky business
Maybe you’ve thought about selling your home without an agent in order to avoid paying an agent’s commission. That commission, depending on where you live and what agency you choose, could be 6 per cent and up.
Handling your own sale means you have to write and place ads, write and publish brochures, answer calls, and show your home to strangers at all hours, no matter how convenient. And buyers who know you are saving agent commission may offer less for your home, destroying any financial benefit you hope to gain.
Serious buyers depend on real estate agents. 98.3% of the homes for sale are listed by realtors. And 70% of homes sold are through agent-to-agent communication. Using the right professional agent will make your home sale a better experience, and a more profitable one.
