Thinking About Selling Your Home Yourself?

Welcome > For Sellers > Thinking About Selling Your Home Yourself? ...

There's More to Selling Your Home than Placing a "For Sale" Sign In Yard 

Even if a simple sign in your yard did produce a buyer knocking on your door, how will you handle the following questions: 

"How does your home compare to others like it in the neighborhood?" 

"How did you determine the fair market value of this property?" 

"What about financing? Can you help?" 

"If I make an offer, who will draw up the paperwork?" 

"Why aren't you using a real estate agent? Is there something wrong with the property?" 

"Since you aren't using a real estate associate, we can take their fee right off the top, right?" 

Selling your home is one of the most important financial transactions you will make in your life. Don't take risks. Every home is different, and every homebuyer wants to offer you as little as possible to get as much as possible.  

Almost all homes are sold using a real estate associate. As top real estate professionals, it is our job to help you negotiate with all those buyers who want something for nothing. Not to mention preparing your home for sale, marketing it locally and nationally, and guiding you through the complex paperwork and pitfalls of escrow and closing. Make sure you are ready to handle all of that before pounding that sign into your front yard. Errors can be extremely costly. 

Remember: Buyers want to offer you as close to nothing as possible! While that "For Sale By Owner" sign might sound like a good idea, it usually means a different thing to buyers. 

If you must sell your own home, at least let us give you a sense of its true market value. Tell us a bit about your home, and we'll do a Comparative Market Analysis and let you know what we feel it is worth. This is part of providing optimal service to the community. 

Don't price your home by yourself! It's our job to analyze the Central Austin, Lakeway and Westlake market and determine the true value of your property. Let us help!

Real Estate Tips

Selling Your Home >A Buyers or Sellers Market

If you are going to sell your present home, the market conditions will play a crucial role in determining the asking price. Market conditions change constantly, so it is important that you get solid advice from a professional who is familiar with your specific area.

A good real estate agent will know how houses in your area are selling, as well as the other factors that may influence the sale. Nearby commercial development, which may create congestion and noise, may also mean a greater demand for housing from people who will be working in the new office buildings. A new bus route that cuts commuting time could make your home more valuable and highways close by can be an issue with the price. The economic conditions have a strong impact on the real estate market. Real estate professionals can help you consider all of the issues and assist you in setting a fair price for your home.
