Why use a REALTOR®

Selling a home is more than just putting a sign in the yard — it’s a complex process that requires expertise, strategy, and strong representation.

Before deciding to go it alone, ask yourself:

• Can you afford to wait a year if your home doesn’t sell?
• Are you comfortable hosting open houses and allowing strangers into your home?
• Do you know how to price your home to attract buyers and maximize your profit?
• What’s your plan when negotiations stall?
• Do you understand how to legally and accurately execute a real estate contract?
• Can you identify which lenders offer the most competitive rates?
• Do you know what a title company can — and can’t — do for you?
• Are you familiar with escrow agreements and how they affect closing?
• Do you understand how tax and cost prorations work?
• Does your home have lead-based paint — and are you required to disclose it?
• Do you know a trusted home inspector who can uncover hidden issues?
• Could your home have Chinese drywall, mold, or other health risks?
• Are you aware of all the disclosures legally required in a real estate sale?

If you’re unsure about even one of these questions, that’s a sign…
