It’s really quite surprising that there are still a few homeowners who don’t hire a real estate listing agent. Sure, they have reasons for it. Mainly, they don’t want to pay for the commission. They feel that that they can get more out of their home sale if they’ll sell the home on their own.
They’ll soon find out that it makes better sense to hire a real estate agent when selling their home. Read on if you’re in the process of selling your home to understand 5 of the top benefits that will convince you to hire a real estate agent.
Listing Agent Knows The Local Market
Price Your Home Just Right
You wouldn’t want to price your home too high or too low. Both extremes wouldn’t benefit you. Price your home too high and your listing will gather cobwebs. Price it too low and you’ll lose a lot of money on the table.
Real estate agents have an up to date understanding of the housing market. They have the experience needed to price homes just right. They can provide you with guidance so you can set the right price for your home.
Tap into their Professional Network
A listing agent understands that selling homes is not a one-man job. There are a lot of tasks involved and they know that they can’t do everything. Instead of being a Jack of all trades, they just focus on what they do best – sell and buy homes. As for the rest of the tasks, they network with other professionals like inspectors, contractors and the likes.
By hiring them, you can tap into their professional network. These professionals are trusted already by the real estate agent.
Gain Maximum Exposure with Your Listing Agent
Your home will have a maximum amount of exposure with the help of a real estate agent. This is because they utilize the latest marketing and selling techniques that have been proven to be very effective.
List Your Home on the Multiple Listing Service
Being listed at the Multiple Listing Service improves your chances of selling your home quickly and for top dollar. You won’t be able to list your home here on your own. Only a real estate agent can list your home there for you.
Reach Out to Potential Qualified Buyers
A good listing agent, in addition to helping sellers, help buyers as well. They’ll help sellers like you sell their home. On the other side of the fence, they have buyer-clients that are looking for a home to buy. With their help, your home will be exposed to this network of potential qualified buyers. Don’t be surprised if the real estate agent helps you sell your home quickly and for top dollar. The best agents are masters at matching buyers with sellers.

It was very helpful insight when you said that realtor’s have industry connections with home inspectors who can analyze a particular establishment for issues. I’m planning to open an Indian restaurant in the city, and I need a place where there are a lot of civilians passing by. Thank you for this, I’ll make sure to hire a reputable real estate agent who can find me the best commercial space for lease in town.

Thank you for explaining that a real estate agent can help you with negotiating with the buyer. My brother is selling his house and has been really worried about negotiating the price and different things at the end of the process. I’ll mention this to him so that he can start looking around for a realtor since it seems like it could help to take the stress out of the whole situation.
