Industry estimates vary but it is generally thought that over 90% of homes are sold with the assistance of a real estate agent. Unless you have significant home selling experience and current knowledge of applicable laws, regulations and market conditions it just makes good sense to hire a professional. After all, you would go to the Dentist for a toothache and visit an Attorney for your will. Why would you try a home remedy for a significant financial transaction like selling real estate?
Most home buyers today are choosing to be represented in the transaction by a Buyer's Agent. This means that they are choosing to have someone on their side in the hope that it keeps the playing field level or perhaps tilts it in their direction. The prudent home seller will also choose to obtain professional assistance and representation.
