The journey from the decision to sell your home to the closing table can go in many directions.
To layout the path for your home sale, you should explore your selling options before signing a listing agreement in Augusta for the best possible outcome.
FSBO
Often, sellers attempt the for sale by owner method of home sales to save the real estate commissions before eventually signing a listing agreement in Augusta. You should enter into this venture with your eyes wide open to the realities of what can go wrong with an FSBO listing. Unfortunately, only about eleven percent of these owners are successful in their efforts, which equates to a great deal of time and money lost and some costly lessons learned. Homebuyers are searching the top sites for homes, and if your property isn’t there, you’re missing out on a large buyer pool. One of the top issues for sellers on these sites is the low-quality digital images used in their marketing, and the tech-savvy buyers of today typically scroll by if the photos aren’t high quality. Another sticking point is setting a realistic listing price, too high or too low, and the outcome is the same, you’ll get little interest in the property. Finally, negotiating your home’s sale can also become an emotionally charged event that could derail the deal, so it’s essential to keep this in mind and remain calm. Remember, this is business to your buyers and not personal.
Licensed Real Estate Agent
Freshening up the appearance of your home and making preparations for the inevitable showings and photos for marketing can be time-consuming and expensive; however, agents must meet the highest standards for your listing to stand out among the competition. While speediness is not the strong suit of a real estate agent, time is an essential factor to consider before signing a listing agreement in Augusta. An agent can tell you the average number of days homes are currently sitting on the market, so you can decide if you can afford any possible delays, including those that follow your acceptance of an offer. However, the payoff for your patience is earning the highest potential market value for your home, and with the current seller’s market, you may find yourself coming out on the top of a bidding war!
Professional Investor
Perhaps the thought of strangers walking through your home or scanning the images of your property online leaves you with a less than comforting feeling. When you’re working with a professional investor, you can forget about all of the hassles of keeping everything spotless and your family ready to pack up and go. If you’re in a hurry for the sale proceeds, before signing a listing agreement in Augusta with an agent, you should know that a professional investor can close on most properties in a matter of days. You won’t need to worry about passing the inspection or any delays caused by problems they find or your buyers backing out. Your closing date is guaranteed when you work with a professional investor who will make you a cash offer for your home as-is.
Hybrid Agent Investor
No matter what obstacles you may be facing, there’s a new option that sellers should know about before signing a listing agreement in Augusta, the hybrid agent investor. Combining the best of both, these professional investors are also licensed real estate agents who can work for you as an agent or as a professional investor. Of course, a hybrid agent investor wants what is best for you, so they lay all of the numbers out on the table with absolutely nothing hidden. First, they will detail what you would likely earn from the sale by using a traditional listing on the MLS, working as your real estate agent, including their commissions. Next, you’ll be provided with all of the details of a direct offer to buy your home for cash, working as a professional buyer, with no commissions. Hybrid agent investors will do this for you to make an educated decision about which method of sale works best for your specific circumstances. Of course, to do this, you must know precisely how much cash you’d have in your pocket when you leave the closing table.
