If you've been thinking about selling your home in Delaware or Pennsylvania, spring is the perfect time to do so! Many buyers, both first-time and seasoned, are out in the local real estate markets in droves, all in search of their dream homes, but are being met with less inventory than there has been in the past.

Delaware and Pennsylvania home sellers are in high demand, but you may be contemplating the best route to take— FSBO (For Sale by Owner) or work with a real estate agent? The perks of working with an experienced agent are numerous and if your motive for considering FSBO is simply to save money, you might like to think again!

Your agent will do the negotiating

Think of all of the parties involved in a Delaware or Pennsylvania home sale, from the buyer and their agent to the appraiser and inspection company. There are dozens of parties to negotiate with and if you choose to go the FSBO route, you will be responsible for this all on your own. Remember that your real estate agent has done this before and they know how to interact with the many different parties involved with the sale.

Your agent has a strategy

An experienced agent, especially Your Delaware and Pennsylvania Real Estate Expert, has a strategy for selling homes in your area. And since the majority of buyers start their home search online, it is no longer as easy as placing a sign in your front yard or an ad in the paper. Your real estate agent knows where the buyers are looking and how to catch their eye.

You will net more money with an agent

Studies have shown working with a real estate agent can help you sell your home for more money than if you choose to do so without. For instance, a house sold by a homeowner sells on average for $210,000, while the house sold by an agent sells for $249,000. In terms of securing the best deal, working with a real estate agent makes more financial sense.
