Should you sell your house on your own?

Let’s say you have a great property and decide that, because the market is so hot, all you have to do is yell outside your door and someone will come by your house. 

Unfortunately, selling a house doesn’t work that easily. If you do that, you might attract somebody, but not necessarily the right somebody. It pays to sell your home the right way—the professional way. Sure, it’s easy to put a sign in the yard and have people say they like your house, but it’s another thing to get to closing. You can court as many people as you want, but it’s another thing to get married. 

To sell a house, you have to be experienced in real estate and know the legal ramifications of signing a contract because as a seller, once you sign on the dotted line, there is not much you can do to get out of the contract. Do you really want to sign on that dotted line and know everything that’s implicated in that contract? In most cases, the answer is no unless real estate is your full-time job. 

Secondly, what’s the experience going to be like along those dates and deadlines? From the first inspection to the title work to all the buyer requests and everything in between, there’s a ton of stuff that can happen that can hurt you along the way. Why not have a professional hold the weight of all that legal responsibility on their shoulders? We’re here to protect you.

We help people save money because we help make them more money than what they could’ve made on their own.

On a final note, we help people save money because we help make them more money than what they could’ve made on their own. We’re also able to find the right buyer who could buy your house with cash or very few loan setbacks. 

It’s like I always ask my friends: Who would you let babysit your kids? Only the best, right? The same logic applies to real estate. I have to trust these people, and I won’t let my buyers partner with someone who can’t take the sale all the way to closing. 

Our whole job is to make your life better because of real estate—not worse. 

If you’re thinking about selling your house, don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I’d be happy to help.
