This is actually my first "blogging" experience. I'm a little nervous. It is kind of like writing a song in that you are putting your thoughts, ideas and experiences out there for the world to see and part of you is thinking man, I hope someone will read this, and another part of you is thinking, I wonder if I said something stupid. Hopefully, I'll get better as I go along.
In many of my listing presentations in the last few months, I have come across Sellers who are considering going the For Sale By Owner route. They remember what Mary's home down the street went for 2 to 3 years ago and the fact that it is"Wayne or Radnor Real Estate" and know that by selling their home on their own they will save the commission and make themselves more profit than if they used a Realtor. To top it off they "know" that since Mary's house went for $795,000 then mine is worth at least $850,000. It takes a while to get through to some of them but eventually they see the light. Sometimes though they have to test the waters.
Selling a home can be a confusing and complicated process - especially in today's market. If a Seller doesn't have a seasoned professional by his or her side, knowing how much to ask for and being able to successfully market the home, understanding which home improvement projects are worth making, getting it ready for showing and knowing how to negotiate are all vital tools needed in the home selling arsenal.
Hey, that was kind of fun!
