The Advantages of Using a Real

The Advantages of Using a Real

 
Whether your home is in Huntsville, Alabama, the Tennessee Valley, or the greater Huntsville area matters little. If you list your home FSBO (For Sale By Owner), you may save the price of a Realtor’s commission, but you’ll quickly spend more time and energy trying to do it all yourself.

Contrary to popular belief, there is much more to selling your home than sticking a sign in the yard and placing an ad in the local newspaper.

The two most common problems you’ll face include:

1. Limited Exposure to the Huntsville, Alabama Real Estate Market
 
While you can purchase ads in your local newspapers, homes in Huntsville, Alabama, the Tennessee Valley, or any other area are not allowed in the MLS listings if they are FSBO. Local MLS listings are reserved for use by professional Huntsville, Alabama real estate agents only.
 
2. Attracting Serious, Qualified Buyers
 
Oftentimes, people who visit FSBO properties are not qualified buyers, are looking for deals, or are just “kicking tires” and aren’t yet ready to buy.
 
Additionally, Huntsville, Alabama real estate agents will provide the services below for you -- allowing you to live your life with minimal interruptions:
 
  • Analyze property values and market conditions and calculate the best price for your home.
  • Prepare, schedule, and run ads.
  • Produce handouts and flyers.
  • List your home in the Huntsville, Alabama MLS (something FSBO’s can’t do).
  • List your home on widely known Web sites for additional exposure.
  • Pre-qualify buyers to ensure they aren’t wasting your time.
  • Stay home to hold open houses or show your property at the buyer’s convenience.
  • Understand and prepare legal disclosures.
  • Follow up with regard to the buyer’s mortgage application and approval.
  • Coordinate inspections and appraisals.
  • Collect all buyer and seller legal documents and ensure they are in proper order.
