Selling Your McDonough, Georgia House Quickly in a Slow Housing Market

April 7, 2011 - PRLog -- It sometimes can be challenging to handle the challenging decision on how to sell your home quickly in this slow housing market. With foreclosures increasing and an eleven mouths supply of houses in the Atlanta area, this is a real uphill battle to sell a property today. Foreclosures also, are driving the value of homes down and building a backlog of bank owned property that keeps growing.

Should I Hire a realtor?

Working with a broker to market a home is, for many people, regarded as the solution. There are really good agents and there are the not so good agents. The problem is selecting the right one. You have to be prepared to have your house listed for up to 12 months or maybe more. And, as the listing stays on the market longer and longer the more the buyer demands a greater and greater discount. Also, with all the houses on the market yours will have to stand out and be in immaculate condition at all times as people tour your home. Usually you sign a listing agreement and the agent puts a sign in the yard and you wait. There may be little activity and you will continue to get frustrated. If you do get a buyer be ready to pay all or part of the closing cost, buy a home warranty, and pay for a termite inspection and or treatment. As well as pay the agent or agents a six to eight percent commission. These costs can add up to tens of thousands of dollars, not including the continued mortgage, tax and insurance payments while the house sits on the market.

Should You Sell Your home Yourself?

Selling your home yourself to avoid paying out real estate commissions and other cost out of your own pocket is another option. You will have to put a sign in the yard and run ads in the newspaper and online. Seems easy enough, but with all the volume of houses on the market you will face the same difficulties confronted with hiring an agent along with continued marketing cost. As banks tighten their lending standards, qualified buyers have become scarce. Most home owner have no way of screening buyers credit to find out if they will be able to buy their house. The problem of having a buyer get your house under contract and not being able to get financing and wasting your time is a real possibility. Furthermore, knowing what legal paperwork that is required and facilitating the closing with an attorney or title company are not easily understood. The steps of selling your own home is time consuming and in many instances take even longer than listing with an agent.
