nd show me around - but do I? Many sellers will be interested in showing you their home without an agent, especially in these lean times when so many sellers are motivated to make deals.
Remember that home for $225000? Some years later I sold it for much more as the market value had appreciated. BUT - I used a fixed fee broker to list my home (you can buy homes through these folks too.)
This time, it only cost me $2,000 to sell my house!
Which would you rather pay, $13,500 or $2,000? Tough choice eh?
Many companies have popped up to help owners and buyers connect, and save on fees. Many options exist, so do your homework before enlisting your next agent:
· Ask yourself is there another way to buy or sell a home · Check the web for resources · Look for agents and brokers the specialize in a set or reduced commission · Look for private investors, they often buy and sell real estate at a discount · Ask your agent for a discount (very realistic these days compared to the "boom years" of yesterday) · Do your diligence: Talk to your attorney, accountant, and tax professionals about your choices before you make them.
