Why Hire A Realtor to Sell Your New Braunfels Home?

Why Hire A Realtor to Sell Your New Braunfels Home?



If you are getting ready to sell your New Braunfels home, you may wonder if it is better to hire a realtor or advertise the home as “for sale by owner” (FSBO). Realtors (real estate agents) bring much to the table when selling your home and have the resources to market your home to far-reaching audiences, and can bring in pre-­qualified buyers to avoid the disappointment that comes from a failed sale by owner proceeding.


One thing to consider is your time, and what it is worth. When you hire a realtor, like Dawn Loding of The Loding Group, you also hire a team of specialists who have streamlined every step of the process. Selling a home is a full ­time job, and when you hire a realtor, all that time is once again yours. Dawn Loding will have professional photos taken of your home after a professional stager advises you on the ways to make your home more attractive to potential buyers. She will market your home with signs and ads, as well as through many different internet sites. An open house will be scheduled and Dawn Loding will be there to answer all questions potential buyers might have. She will arrange showings of your home, and she will ensure that potential buyers are actually qualified buyers, and not just “browsers.” Often, when people see a home listed as “for sale by owner,” they believe they can get a “deal” because they are not working with a real estate professional. They believe that people who do not hire a realtor to sell their home will be more willing to negotiate, especially after the home as been listed as “for sale by owner” for quite some time; they smell desperation.


When you are ready to sell your New Braunfels home, be sure to hire a realtor, and be sure to hire a realtor who specializes in selling homes, like Dawn Loding of The Loding Group with Keller Williams. Contact Dawn at 830/481-­7580 today!
