Why You Need a REALTOR® to Sell

Selling Indianapolis-area real estate is no job for a novice.  Timing is critical when selling your home, not only when considering the time of year, but also once the home goes on the market.  The longer a home sits without selling, the more potential buyers may think there is something wrong with it.  A REALTOR® will help you maximize showings.

Knowing how to arrive at a fair market price for your home is also a vitally important factor in selling your home.  Price it too high, and some people won’t even look at it; too low, and you’re ripping yourself off.  Any REALTOR® worth their salt will be able to arrive at a fair market price and come up with a comprehensive marketing program to sell your home effectively.

In today’s market, a yard sign, lock box and MLS (multiple listing service) listing is just not enough.  With more than 90% of home buyers starting their searches online, a tech-savvy REALTOR® can get your home more exposure today than ever before.  The marketing tools of today enable sellers to cast a wider net and reel in more buyers than yesterday’s tools.  Technology has changed everything — a good REALTOR® will be ahead of the curve.

Even after your home sells, you’ll need a professional to help you with all the things you’d be otherwise unprepared for:  negotiations, inspection responses, title work, taxes, deadlines- all important aspects of a sale.  One error could cost you thousands of dollars, or worse, the sale.  Having a REALTOR® on your side helps you avoid these pitfalls.

If you’re thinking that a REALTOR® sounds like a keen idea, but you’re concerned about the commissions, call Allen.  His commission structure is about as fair as they come.  He will not tie you down to a long-term listing agreement.  He believes that if he is doing his job, you will stay with him.  If he fails, you should have the option of telling him to hit the road.  See how many other real estate professionals have the same philosophy.

What People are Saying:

“Allen sold my lake home within a very short time frame. My neighbors, especially those with homes that have sat unsold for months, were surprised at how quickly we were able to sell it. He put together an excellent marketing plan and handled all of the details.”
