Benefits of listing your home with a REALTOR®

A marketing strategy is necessary to help get your asking price or close to it. This is done in a variety of different ways and your REALTOR®can go over the specific details.
Negotiation is an art and a science. Keeping your emotions under control is key during this process. When negotiating your REALTOR® will use the necessary skills.
First thing first, hire a real estate professional. By doing this you will avoid making selling mistakes before you even get started. Your real estate professional will do an initial walk-through of your home with you to provide you with a selling analysis.
Sellers often opt to do their own pre-inspection prior to placing their home on the market. Having a pre-inspection done prior to listing your home can avoid any surprises that can cause hiccups during the selling process and allow you time to correct.
This is last step before your real estate professional list your home on the MLS. Before you reach this step in the process your real estate professional has done their homework on how your property compares to others in your area that either recently sold or is currently on the market. You want your asking price to comparable not unreasonably above market value.
By listing your home on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) you are able to reach a large range of potential buyers. Once your listing is active on the MLS your listing should populate onto the following platforms: Zillow, Realtor, Trulia and Homesnap getting your home more exposure.
Advertising on social media will get your home more exposure, and can start stacking up viewing appointments the first day your house is active. According to “Pew Research Center’s Social Media Use Survey” approximately 81% of U.S. adults use YouTube, 69% use Facebook and 40% use Instagram.
The quality of your listing photos should be taken by professional photographer or with a Digital Single Lens Reflex (DSLR) camera (not a cellphone).

Will an open house sell your home? The answer is possibly, however with most listing an open house will not solely sell your home. The combination of open houses, the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) and marketing by your agent will get your home the most exposure and attract the right buyer.
Agent-only tours allow buyers agents to view the listing property in hopes that they may have the perfect client to purchase your home.
Yard signs are helpful in drawing attention to your home from by-passers. Although according the the National Association of Realtors 90% of home buyers begin their search online 9% of the homes purchased were discovered from a yard sign. According to Zillow 69% of buyers who used an agent said their new home was found by them.
