Perhaps your family is growing and you are looking for something larg er. Or, you are empty nesting, and the additional bathrooms and bedrooms are no longer necessary. The next question you may ask yourself is --how do I go about selling my home? Should I attem pt to sell privately or do I enlist the expertise of a real estate agent? Selling your home is no small undertaking. It involves com plex financial and personal decisions. It is one of the biggest financial transactions you will ever make. One of the biggest reasons that people try to sell their homes privately is to save commission money. However, most people who start out selling privately end up listing with a realtor. Why? There are many reasons to use a realtor when selling your property. Do you really know the fair market value of your home? A licenced real estate agent can help you determine the fair ask ing price to enable you to sell your home quickly and at the best possible price. The Invidiata Team has a unique tracking system that can help you determine a fair asking price based on recent sales of similar homes in your area as well as consid ering other factors such as location and condition of your property. You will also be kept informed as to buyer feedback on your home and will be advised on any necessary competi- tive adjustments until your home is sold. This is a time com m itm ent that you may not be able to make yourself when sell ing your home privately. Your real estate agent will also market your home on the Multiple Listing 'Service (MLS), in newspaper ads, radio sta tions and on the internet in order to give your home the best exposure and they will do all of this at their expense. As well, they will plan open houses, screen potential purchasers, show your home (sometimes on short notice) and will be there with you at the negotiating table working on yo u r behalf.
