Top Questions To Ask a Realtor When Selling a House.
When selling a home, especially under financial stress, picking the right realtor can make or break your sale. But did you know that revealing certain details too soon could work against you? In my latest video, I share five crucial questions to ask your realtor and explain what information you should hold back to protect your sale.
Here’s a glimpse of what we discuss:
1. Experience with Distressed Properties
It’s important to ask your realtor if they’ve worked with distressed sales like foreclosures or short sales. Handling these types of properties requires a unique set of skills. In the video, I go over why this experience matters and how it can impact your sale.
2. The Realtor’s Marketing Strategy
What specific marketing strategies will they use to attract the right buyers quickly? In the video, I explain why a basic approach—just listing on MLS and putting up a sign—isn’t enough. We dive into how a detailed marketing plan can help you reach buyers who understand the value of your home.
3. How They Set the Listing Price
The listing price can determine whether your house sells quickly or sits on the market. In the video, I reveal the risks of pricing too high or too low and what questions to ask your realtor to ensure they set a competitive price that aligns with your financial goals.
4. Handling Financial Challenges
If you’re behind on mortgage payments, you need a realtor who can guide you through options like negotiating with lenders. We discuss why asking your realtor about their experience in managing these challenges can offer you much-needed support.
5. What’s Included in the Commission
Not all services are included in the standard commission. In the video, I talk about why it’s essential to ask for a clear breakdown, so there are no surprises down the line.
And here’s the twist: in some cases, sharing too much with your realtor can impact your sale’s success. Revealing your lowest acceptable price or financial challenges too early could shift the focus away from getting the best deal for you. Want to know why timing matters?
