There's More to Selling Your Home
than a "For Sale" Sign In Your Front Yard: Beware.
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 Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes and
Torrance?"
"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 REALTOR®?
Is there something wrong with the property?"
"Since you aren't using a REALTOR®,
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. Selling your home is nothing like selling a
car. Every home is different, and every homebuyer wants
to offer you as little as possible. How do you determine
the real market value?
Almost all homes are sold using a REALTOR®.
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 in Palos Verdes Estates, Rancho Palos Verdes
and Torrance and even nationally, and guiding you through
the complex paperwork and pitfalls of escrow and closing.
Make sure you are really 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: "Try to steal this one."
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 quick Comparative
Market Analysis and let you know what we feel it is worth.
We'll also describe, as experienced, top Palos Verdes Estates,
Rancho Palos Verdes and Torrance REALTORS®, how we would
market your property. This is free, with no strings attached.
