Why Should Hire a Real Estate Agent?

Just as you would most likely hire a plumber to install a new boiler, hiring a real estate agent can help give you peace of mind and confidence throughout the selling process.

 

Below are some of the most important reasons to hire a real estate agent.

 

Price Guidance & Neighbourhood Knowledge
Generally, your main goal will be to sell your home as quickly as possible at the best price so you can move on to your new place.

 

A key factor in quickly selling your house is pricing it correctly for the market. As the homeowner, you may believe you know what your home is worth, but there’s likely a bit of subjectivity that goes into your estimate.

 

A real estate agent follows a clear and factual process to determine a fair asking price for your home. This means looking at recent home sales that are similar to yours within a certain area and comparing your property to those sales.

 

If the agent is a professional who isn’t emotionally attached to your home, they can help you choose a fair price that matches the current real estate market in your area.

 

Education & Experience
Whether you have sold a home before or this is your first time, working with a real estate agent can provide you with valuable knowledge that only an expert can offer.

 

Of course, it is possible to manage the selling process on your own; however, the sale of your property is probably one of the largest financial transactions you will ever make.

 

So, it makes sense to rely on a professional to guide you through the process and help ensure that everything goes smoothly.

Professional Networking & Marketing
Real estate agents network with other industry professionals who provide the services you will need to help sell your property.

 

Many agents may hesitate to recommend a certain individual or company over another, but they do know who has a reputation for efficiency, competency and competitive pricing, and can give you references with whom they have worked.

 

Marketing your home does not begin and end with the listing. There is much more that goes into it. Real estate agents continuously promote your home through their websites, social media, videos and newsletters to potential buyers. It is their daily job!

 

Selling Advice & Time-Saving Tips
A good real estate agent will also provide guidance on staging your home to showcase its best features, attracting potential buyers and leaving a lasting impression.

 

Simple, low-cost selling tips, such as adding some lighting, rearranging furniture, updating your property’s curb appeal, etc.

Agents Are Buffers
A Real Estate Agent will make sure each property viewing counts; they focus on finding serious buyers with no “lookie-loos".

 

Selling your home can be an emotional experience; your house is more than just four walls and a roof—it’s the place you called home, where you created special memories.

 

Feedback from potential buyers can be tough to hear – whether it’s something about the house or garden they didn’t like or maybe they like the house but offer a low price.

 

A good real estate agent will have an objective perspective, which can help keep your emotions and stress at bay.

 

Negotiation Skills & Confidentiality
Another key part of selling a home is managing negotiations with potential buyers.

 

A good real estate agent will handle these negotiations professionally and work hard to get you the best price for your home. Since they negotiate daily, you can trust them to prioritise your best interests.

 

Additionally, a competent real estate agent will ensure your confidentiality throughout the sale process.

 

Aftersales Support & Future Relationships
Many questions can pop up that were overlooked in the excitement of closing; a good agent will be ready to help, and a quick phone call will resolve any confusion.

 

Success in real estate also relies on referrals. Agents who focus on client satisfaction thrive, and those who stay in the business will be available when you need their services again, often sending market updates to keep in touch.
