Why do I need a real estate broker in 2022?
Real estate brokers are far from being idle in 2021. Is it because of new technologies, increased buyer sensitivity, health measures or even more volatile markets?
When the time comes to sell your property, you have two choices: sell by yourself or hire a real estate broker. The real estate broker’s profession is often underestimated, underappreciated and subject to many prejudices… People sometimes choose to sell on their own in order to try to save the commission fee, but without any guarantee of having a higher amount in their pockets at the end of the day. Moreover, this is often a laborious, stressful, and frustrating process that will require a lot of work to get through all the steps of this process, a lot of patience and composure.
The other alternative is to choose a good real estate broker. This option will save you a lot of energy, time, and anxiety.
A good broker is like a good lawyer: he is an expert who will represent you, advise you and negotiate for you. He has a team and important resources for the sale of your property. Whether you need an appraiser, a tax specialist, a plumber, a surveyor, or a notary, he will be able to help and support you in all situations. He will become your pillar, your support for the sale of your property, a step-in life that can sometimes be emotionally difficult.
Your broker will make a video presentation of your home, take professional photos of it and give it maximum visibility on the market. The advantage of the virtual visit by video is that it presents your property as accurately as possible and avoids false impressions to those who are interested in it. Thanks to his experience, your agent will be able to filter the visit requests and focus on the true serious buyers.
Your real estate broker will be a major asset to sell your house as quickly as possible and at the best price according to the current market conditions.
The broker is an expert in his field, he knows his sector and his market. The real estate market is in constant evolution; if your neighbor sold at such and such a price 10 months ago, the current reality is possibly quite different today. Therefore, an expert is so important. The broker will have the comparable in hand for some time, will have the information on the different municipal by-laws, zoning and will have the answers to your many questions.
If you were hesitating, I can assure you that you will not be disappointed! The human connection is stronger than anything, take the time to make the right choice. Buying and selling property is much more than just a transaction, it’s about real relationships!
