Buyers often see FSBO homes as bargains, expecting the savings on REALTOR® commissions to benefit them, not you. As a result, you may end up selling for less than you would with a REALTOR®.
Are You Familiar with Boston's Real Estate Laws?
Real estate laws are intricate and constantly evolving. One mistake could cause your entire deal to fall apart, or worse, lead to legal action. REALTORS® have the knowledge and expertise to navigate these complexities.
How Many Potential Buyers Will You Reach?
Selling a home is more than putting up a “For Sale” sign. Without access to MLS (Multiple Listing Service) and professional marketing strategies, your home won't reach as many potential buyers. REALTORS® utilize advanced tools and networks to maximize exposure.
Do You Have the Time?
Selling a home is a full-time job. Between answering calls, screening potential buyers, and scheduling showings, it can overwhelm your existing schedule. REALTORS® handle the day-to-day tasks, ensuring your property gets the attention it deserves.
Do You Know Boston’s Real Estate Market Well Enough?
Accurately pricing your home is crucial. Without years of experience and knowledge of the Boston market, you may either price too low, missing out on potential profit, or too high, discouraging buyers. REALTORS® use market data and trends to set the right price.
Do You Have the Negotiation Skills to Keep the Deal on Track?
Real estate negotiations can be emotional, especially when large sums of money are involved. REALTORS® act as a buffer, keeping the process professional and ensuring deals don’t fall through due to emotions or poor negotiation skills.
