How to Price Your Home: by Marcie Geffner<\/strong><\/p>\n

\t\u2022 Abandon your personal point of view
\n\t\u2022 Get a couple of CMAs (comparative market analysis)
\n\t\u2022 Do your own market research
\n\t\u2022 Calculate the price per square foot for similar homes in your neighborhood
\n\t\u2022 Consider market conditions
\n\t\u2022 Sweeten the transaction terms. The more appealing you can make it, the more eager buyers will be.<\/p>\n

Why Use a Realtor When Selling: by Ron Schmeadick<\/strong><\/p>\n

\t\u2022 Marketing:<\/strong> A Realtor can properly market your homes via multiple channels to ensure that the maximum amount of potential buyers are reached.
\n\t\u2022 Security:<\/strong> You can ensure that only pre-screened buyers that are accompanied by real estate agents are allowed into your home.
\n\t\u2022 Negotiating:<\/strong> Your Realtor can take you through the whole process of negotiating the deal and protecting your best interests throughout the entire transaction from beginning to end.
\n\t\u2022 Monitoring and closing:<\/strong> Your Realtor will be there for the entire transaction whenever questions may arise until the deal is successfully closed.<\/p>\n

**A Realtor is a member of the National Association of Realtors. They proudly uphold the NAR code of ethics and display a higher knowledge of the processes of buying and selling real estate. Make sure that your real estate agent is a Realtor.<\/p>\n
