The Benefits of Selling

Property Privately

Do you really need to work with a

real estate agent in order to make

it happen?

Myth: A property owner lacks knowledge to sell a house alone.

Completing a private property sale is possible, even if you

lack in-depth property industry knowledge. It all depends on

completing the needed preliminary steps – getting the house

valuated, doing a bit of renovation, doing home staging and

choosing the right marketing channels.

Often, house owners do a better sale than real estate agents

because they are 100 percent committed to completing a

single sale. Real estate agents have to juggle numerous

responsibilities at the same time, which can interfere with

their dedication and ability to give 100 percent for each of the

clients that they work with.

Myth: Real estate agents have access to more marketing

options.

Successful marketing can be carried by anyone because of

the availability of numerous options. Internet has given

private property sellers the same possibilities that real estate

agents work with.

Just thing about it – to market your house, you can rely on

social networks like Facebook and Pinterest, on specialized

real estate websites, on video sharing portals like YouTube,

on property forums and on real estate magazines. All of these

channels will help you reach a big target audience of

potential buyers.

Myth: Realtors will sell at a higher price than owners.

Private property sellers have one great benefit to enjoy – the

absence of agency fees. A real estate agent will get a

significant percentage of the sale. This is why realtors tend to

sell at higher prices than property owners.

The availability to launch the sale at a lower price is great and

it can help you sell faster. Real estate for sale by owner can

spend a very short period of time on the market. The fact that

you pay no fees or commissions helps you give interested

buyers a discount. Often, this is everything that you have to

do, in order to complete the sale.

Myth: Private property sales are simply too complicated.

The realtor will help you with the marketing and

communication with potential buyers. When it comes to legal

issues, you are on your own.

Realtors provide a bit of convenience but you are still left

dealing with various issues. You can try a private property

sale and you can hire an attorney to handle the legal aspect

of completing the deal. There is nothing complex about

promoting the house or communicating with people that want

to buy.

Myth: Realtors are much better at negotiations than owners.

This is probably the biggest myth of them all. Realtors do not

know the property and the neighborhood in the way that you

do. Because of this fact, they can do a mediocre job during

the process of negotiating.

As the owner, you can be much more convincing and

genuine. Sharing your passion with the potential buyer can

be determining for the outcome of the negotiation process.

You know all the characteristics of the property and you will

be capable of convincing potential buyers to finalize the deal

with you.
