Some Facts About Selling Your Home You’re thinking to yourself, “I’d like to work with a realtor but I don’t want to pay a high commission.” Lower commissions can be attractive but it can cost you in the end. Realtors that offer you lower commissions often don’t have the resources available to fully market your home. Marketing is key to getting your home sold quickly and at the price you would like to get. Often this lack of realtor resources can affect how long your home stays on the market. A lengthy listing time can affect the price of your home and give you less bargaining power at the negotiating table.
Always be sure you are ready to sell your home before putting it on the market. If you are just putting your home on the market to “see what I can get,” you can create negative publicity on the home if it doesn’t sell. Remember, realtors can see how many times the house has been on the market and how long it was listed. Realtors are obligated to tell their buyers all the facts on a home that they are considering for purchase. This can be a red flag for some realtors and can make it more difficult for you to sell your home when you are really ready to sell.
You can sell your home whenever you like even if, for example, you have been in your home for as little as two years. The only issue that may keep you from putting your home on the market is if you have a prepayment penalty on your mortgage. Be sure to check with your mortgage company to avoid any surprises at closing.
