There are many choices for REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS – find out what makes The Sunderman Group the best choice!
Selling your home can be a huge undertaking. Between managing your own life, family, job, and calendar, adding in the sale (and likely purchase) of a home can be overwhelming.
We understand the balancing act you play while selling a home. There are the logistics of moving, schools, and work commutes to consider. There’s the emotional toll of moving to a new space and settling into a new routine. All of these things will be kept in limbo until your property is sold. We see ourselves as the alleviator of those worries – we will manage the details of your property sale while you can just focus on your family.
While you may think the role of a real estate agent is as simple as scheduling showings and posting yard signs, there are hundreds (if not thousands) of details that go into each and every home sale that ensure our customers have a smooth transition between homes.
As you review your real estate agent options, here are five reasons you should consider using The Sunderman Group to make your real estate process smooth and simple.
You’re Already Busy
Selling a home is a full-time job, just like the other jobs you already have. You are likely already wearing multiple hats in your life, like parent, partner, employee, friend, caretaker, kids’ soccer coach, and more. Why add another role to your to-do list?
Using an experienced real estate agent means you get decades of experience in sales, negotiations, real estate contracts, and law, as well as the logistics of a real estate transaction, all in one! By outsourcing your real estate transaction to an expert, you can rest easy knowing the vast majority of details are taken care of with the insight and expertise only decades in the industry can get you.
Many real estate transactions span multiple weeks or months, meaning you would need to be actively engaged in the advertising, pricing, communication, and negotiations for your property for several weeks. These are the details that can feel natural and simple to a seasoned real estate agent, but taxing on a regular home owner taking on the burden of a home sale on their own.
Expert Agents Get You The Most Money
As one of the largest financial assets you’ll have in your lifetime, your home transaction should yield you the most beneficial results. This generally means getting a great price for your home, allowing you to expand your wealth with equity or buy a new property with the proceeds.
Choosing to manage the transaction on your own can seem exciting, but often leads to more stress, longer closing times, and less profit for you. While the details of pricing and negotiation may seem small, they can escalate to cost you thousands of dollars on your transaction.
Using an agent with deep experience in your area can ensure you get the best price, with a simple closing timeline and easy negotiations.
Don’t make the mistake of trying to take on the entire process yourself. Get the right amount for your property by having a real estate expert on your side.
Agents Are Trained Negotiators
Many transactions in the real estate world require negotiations. They can be as simple as arguing price, or as complex as finessing the details of a renovation, inspection, and upgraded amenities on the home. Agents have deep experience in the nuance of buyer and seller agent communication, describing property, advertising strategy and other tactics that can be used to ensure you get the right price for your home. From posting your listing at the right time of the year, month, or even week, to artfully presenting your home to local agents, an experience agent can make a huge difference in the way your sales negotiations can go.
Using an expert with decades of experience can see the difference between a just-okay home and your ultimate dream home. Understanding the nuances of negotiation – especially in the context of real estate transactions – can make a drastic difference to your overall experience as well as the final price of your home.
Real Estate Contracts Are Complicated
Real estate transactions require lots of paperwork. These can include anything from the purchase agreement, the seller’s disclosure, title paperwork, and even multiple financial documents and tax statements. There are dozens of documents to be managed within a single real estate transaction, meaning you would need to become a legal expert overnight to manage it yourself.
Using a real estate agent with deep experience can alleviate this burden. We’ve managed hundreds of transactions and reviewed thousands of documents in our years serving buyers in Ohio. We’ve seen the complicated, tricky paperwork that can bring a transaction to a screeching halt. And with all our experience, we’ve been able to navigate the adjustments needed to keep a home purchase moving smoothly.
Understanding the details and nuance of real estate contracts can save you thousands of dollars within your transaction and over the life of your home ownership. Partner with a real estate agent who can help you navigate the complexities of contracts.
We Know How To Strategically Price Your Home
The price of your home may seem like just a number someone will ultimately pay. But a seasoned real estate professional understands that the price you put on your home can complement a larger strategy.
Many factors, including the ideal profit, your current home equity, your closest comps, and the local real estate market trends determine pricing. Utilizing an experienced home expert can ensure your home is priced in the right way to entice buyers, improve your bids, and get you the right price for your home.
