Considering the fact that the real estate broker gets a commission, wouldn't it be less expensive to buy direct, more profitable to sell direct? Not except in special cases, not unless you are lucky! VALUE An alert real estate firm has up-to-date price information on various types of property. In many cases the broker knows the history of the building or the business which permits him to be a trusted advisor. This assures the buyer of value received and helps the seller determine a proper selling price. CHOICE Working through a broker gives the buyer a far wider choice and helps confirm what the going price should be. It gives the seller more prospects. NEGOTIATION Probably the most important role of a broker is that of negotiating a fair price between buyer and seller as a representative of both sides. He can consummate the transaction in a manner fair to both. Most of us, in direct dealings, after stating our "rock bottom price" or our "top offer" are embarrassed to alter either with the result a sale or purchase is often lost. Having lost it once, we are then apt to sell too low or pay too much in a subsequent transaction. Hence, whether you area buyer or a seller, it is usually better to deal through a broker. The broker serves many other roles such as protecting a deal during negotiation, pinpointing closing dates, acting as a clearing house for funds, and in general acting as a watchdog until the property is truly sold, or finally bought. We at The McHenry Plaindealer believe in buying or selling through real estate brokers.
