SELLERS
WHAT TO EXPECT
Thinking about selling? As an alternative to working with a local real estate agent, you might consider selling your home yourself; however, if you choose this option, be prepared for a ton of work! It has been done, of course, but it may require more time than you spend on your full-time job. If you don't have this amount of time and energy to commit to the sale (or need to sell quickly), this option may not be for you.
If selling your home on your own seems like a challenge you're not up for, you may want to hire a licensed, professional real estate agent. An experienced realtor will have the time, resources, and know-how to get you the highest price possible for the sale of your property.
