Do I need a realtor when selling my property?

While not required by law, having a seller’s agent is highly recommended.  Real estate laws, practices and procedures can be confusing and intimidating to a layman and leave you in a vulnerable position.

What happens if my home fails the home inspection?

Don’t worry!  It could be a contaminated well or even a leaky basement, but it’s not entirely unusual for a home to fail part of the home inspection.  The potential buyers may choose to offer a lower price, ask for money back at closing, or another concession to compensate for the failed inspection.

What are your fees?

The typical fee is 6% total.  3% of this commission fee goes to the buyer’s agent and 3% goes to the seller’s agent.

How do I purchase a new home before I sell my current one?

Most people need to sell their current home before they have the money to use for a downpayment on a new property.  The solution to this is to make the closing of your current property contingent upon you finding your new house.

Open plan kitchen

Should I complete my home improvement projects before selling my house?

Maybe.  Depending on the improvement, it may be wise to just offer money back at closing for the new owners to complete the project.  A seller’s agent can advise you on which improvements will help sell your house and which should be left to the new owners.
