As professionals dedicated to helping others in
the "Real Estate" market, it's not uncommon for us to offer advice
to those who choose to sell their properties themselves. We respect
your decision to sell privately and we would like you to know that
"Lil Wilkinson Realty" is always available to answer any questions
you may have regarding the sale of your home. Our combined 50+ years
of experience can pave the way for you. This is a FREE service we're
offering you. You're under no obligation to sign a contract.
If you're currently selling privately then perhaps we can be of assistance in searching for
your next property. We have "hands on" access to hundreds of listings,
and it's certainly easier to find what you're looking for with the
right help. You can become a VIP Buyer right away and receive new
listings that suit your needs and desires as they come on-line. Please let us know if this interests you.
And... whether you're currently selling privately,
or just considering it, please review the following 10 points. There
are certain advantages to using a REALTOR'S® services and these
thoughts may help you.
-
Setting your own price may not be beneficial to you if you're not aware of market conditions.
-
You're always on call - ad calls, sign calls, open houses
-
Difficult to qualify potential buyers - Are they just nosy neighbours?
Are they there just to check out your valuables? Can they afford
your home?
-
It's easy to praise your own home, but difficult to get purchaser
feedback & critique - buyers are usually polite and
may not tell you the truth.
-
You're not exposing yourself to the vast number of true buyer's because
your marketing plan is limited - will you be getting
the highest and best price?
-
You don't have over
700 REALTORS® working for you & you may not
be advertised on the Internet.
-
Drafting the offer can be challenging - There are many clauses to consider these days and many loopholes you should be avoiding. Yes, a lawyer can draft the
offer, but there's a fee attached.
-
How will you know if an offer is a fair one? - Lawyers aren't
aware of current market values.
-
Most buyers like to work with a REALTOR® when negotiating rather than working
with you directly - because their interest needs protecting
too!
-
Buyers know you're selling your own home to save commission, so they
will inevitably reduce their offer by this amount so they end
up saving money instead of you.
About 80% - 90% of Homeowners who try to Sell Privately
end up using the full services of a REALTOR®.
If you feel you'll fall into this group then don't forget to call
Lil Wilkinson Realty. We will certainly enjoy talking with you!
