About

  Realtors are experts who know the current market conditions, interest rates and the mortgage lending process. They can provide information on desired neighborhoods, best schools, highly recommended doctors and most popular family lifestyle. They have been through the process of buying and selling real estate several times and have learned how to overcome challenges and provide you answers and support when you need it. And you will need it!

Realtors (pay to) have access to accurate and complete data which is imperative when you want to buy or sell a house for the best possible price! Zillow, Trulia, and other national websites will not give you accurate data, information, and will often either show homes that are not for sale (anymore) or will be completely missing real estate listings altogether. Don't risk leaving tens of thousands of dollars on the table just to try and save on the Realtor commissions. Not only are you saving less by not using a Realtor, you're actually subjecting yourself, to even more, harm once you go under contract. 

Are you a good negotiator? In order to negotiate the best possible price when selling or buying real estate, you need to have knowledge and be an expert in the field. Successful realtors do it all the time! They are well trained to get their clients the best deal and make them happy customers who will come back for more business or refer their realtors to their friends and family members. One of the most important responsibilities of an Agent is to keep everything legal, fair, and their client's best interests protected. And that is why 9 out of 10 buyers actually end up working with a realtor.

Real Estate Agents are well-connected. They typically work in a real estate team collaboratively when it comes to paperwork, mortgages, attorneys, home inspectors, and everything else that is involved in the buying and selling of real estate. Not only do they have great connections to help with your real estate transaction, they also know everyone! A lot of Realtors have very active Social Media accounts with hundreds if not thousands of followers, they focus on spreading the right message to a specific audience. Your house will be listed instantly on Social Media accounts, so that every potential client or Realtor, who is working with a buyer and looking for a home like yours, knows about it! 

 Realtors are held to a strict code of ethics. This means having the client's best interest at all times and in all situations is part of being a Realtor®. Here is an excellent article that explains the strict code of ethics Realtors® adhere to and how they apply to our real estate businesses.
