Why Using a Real Estate Agent can Provide Several Advantages when Buying or Selling a Property
by Abigail Elsaesser
While it's difficult to provide an exact percentage increase in the likelihood of a house selling with a real estate agent compared to without one, empirical evidence and industry experience suggest that utilizing an agent typically results in faster sales and higher sale prices. Buying or selling a property can be very stressful and hard to do with no experience. Here are 8 reasons why you should chose to work with a real estate agent.
Market Expertise: Real estate agents have in-depth knowledge of the local market conditions, including trends, pricing, and neighborhood dynamics. This expertise can help you make informed decisions.
Access to Listings: Agents have access to Multiple Listing Services (MLS), which provides a comprehensive database of available properties. The Fletcher Group also has access to all commercial platforms including NECEPE and CREXI. This gives you access to a wider range of options that fit your criteria.
Negotiation Skills: Real estate transactions involve negotiations. Agents are trained negotiators who can represent your interests effectively and help you get the best deal possible. The Fletcher Group has been working on their negotiation skills for over 30 years.
Paperwork and Legalities: Buying or selling a property involves a significant amount of paperwork and legalities. Real estate agents are familiar with the necessary documents and can ensure that everything is completed accurately and in compliance with regulations.
Network of Professionals: Experienced agents have a network of professionals, including inspectors, lenders, contractors, and attorneys, whom they can recommend to assist you throughout the process. At TFG we also offer property management!
Time and Convenience: Hiring an agent saves you time and effort by handling tasks such as scheduling property viewings, coordinating inspections, and communicating with other parties involved in the transaction. You can leave your stress in our hands!
Market Insights: Real estate agents can provide valuable insights into market trends, property values, and investment opportunities, helping you make strategic decisions regarding your real estate transactions. TFG has multiple years in the business, so we have our heads wrapped around this stuff. No need to worry about what all the big words mean, or assume what your property may be worth. We have got you covered in every aspect of the transaction. From learning to signing.
Emotional Support: Buying or selling a home can be emotionally challenging. A real estate agent can offer support, guidance, and reassurance throughout the process, reducing stress and anxiety.
Overall, while it's possible to buy or sell a property without a real estate agent, their expertise, resources, and support can streamline the process and increase the likelihood of a successful transaction.
