    Why hire a Realtor?

    Now a days technology gives us the option of buying, and selling a home easily. The decline of the economy has the majority of home owners and buyers turning to the internet, and learning how to buy a home on their own. The question remains with so much access to learning about properties online “why should I hire a Realtor?”


    Here are the top 5 reasons why a Realtor is still needed with today’s technology.


    Community knowledge.   If you are moving to a new area, city, or state the Realtor you hire from the area will have the knowledge needed to show you what is available to you in the area of your choice. They will also have knowledge of neighborhoods, the school district, crime, and demographics.


    Experience.  The person you hire most likely knows quite a bit about construction, relocation,  and are experts at helping you find the best fit. That means less of a headache for you, and time spent trying to figure out real estate lingo and comparing prices.


    Negotiations.   Having someone on your side, to maybe knock the price down just a little bit so you can afford your dream home is always a plus! Your Realtor is trained, and skilled to negotiate on your behalf. The best Realtor’s take the emotional aspect out of their haggling to get the best prices.


    Guidance.  Looking for, and finding an affordable new home can be stressful. For most of us it isn’t riding around in a pretty neighborhood and saying “that’s the one I want” then poof a dream home! Your Realtor can help you through the process, paper work, negotiation, and anything else that is needed to help you make a comfortable decision you can be happy with for a long time!


    Security.  Even after negotiations are closed and its a done deal there still may be some questions. Your agent can help you go through paperwork, and decisions to make sure you are secure and that there isn’t anything to come back and bite you in the rear!

    Buying a house can be exciting, and stressful at the same time. Using a great Realtor can ensure that you get what you want, how you want, and you can feel good in the end with no worry.
