Professional Home Buyers - Why We're Better Than a Realtor

If you're considering using a Real Estate Agent to sell your house, be aware that what Real Estate Agents write on sales contracts to sell your home and other "legal documents" can create a real liability for the Seller.

What does your "liability" mean as the home Seller? It means that you could be held responsible for what the Real Estate Agent writes in the sales contract, even if it was a "mistake". When it's time to sell your house, WeBuyHomes2Fix.com is the one to call.

When you sell your home through a Real Estate Agent, the Seller usually pays a "Broker's Fee" which is usually 5% to 7% of the sale price of your home. This fee is only paid when the house actually sells, but most Sellers fail to realize that listing agents seldom find a home buyer for their property. More often than not, a "Buyer's Agent" will be the one who actually sells the house.

Add to that the time and effort spent on your part to arrange for repeated property "showings" to prospective Buyer clients.

Most people use real estate agents to sell their houses - but when you sell through an agent, you may find it impossible to sell your house quickly.

First, you will have to waste a lot of time and money into your property to make it "show well". This can mean painting the entire house, putting in new carpets, and fixing every little scratch and dent that a buyer might see. These small "updates" can cost thousands of dollars without the gaurantee of a sale.

When your house finally meets the agent's approval, you will have to sign a listing agreement for 30, 60, 90 or even 180 days. This agreement often dictates that you pay the agent EVEN IF YOU SELL THE HOUSE YOURSELF!

If your first agent is a "go getter" and starts bringing visitors in right away, your house can still sit on the market for months. As of the beginning of 2009, the average listing sat on the market for 9.2 months before it reached closing. Once a buyer finally shows up, you will have to wait weeks and weeks for the buyer to get approved for a loan. The whole process can take forever.
