How Realtors Help People Sell Their Homes

There are many reasons why people choose to sell their homes. Sometimes it's as simple as wanting a change of scenery and sometimes it's more complicated, such as needing to sell due to a change in financial situation. Whatever the reason, having a good realtor on your side is paramount to selling your home as quickly as possible.

House-Related Reasons

• Current home is under distress. Some homes have excellent structure but need extensive repairs. The right agent will find buyers who are looking for a fixer-upper home.
• Neighborhood in decline. Even if home prices are falling in your current neighborhood, a great agent will be able to highlight your home's best features to get the highest price.
• Home needs some work before being ready to sell. The right agent will invest time into staging your home and making it look its best.
• Owner has outgrown the home. A good agent will know exactly who to market a smaller home to, such as a young couple without children.

Financial Reasons

• Unmanageable payments. Pricing a home to sell quickly is an art form. Our agents use a proven method that prices homes so competitively you may find multiple offers coming in, freeing you from a too-high (or too many) mortgage payment.
• Cashing in equity. A realtor who is a good fit will take time to understand your financial situation and help price the home so you walk away with the maximum cash in hand.

Personal Reasons

• Job relocation. Having a local agent who knows about resources for relocated employees can be a huge help in selling.
• Job loss. A change in financial situation may force a home sale, and you want an agent who will treat this sensitive subject with privacy.
• Divorce. The overall divorce rate in South Carolina is 6%, so homes will unfortunately occasionally need to be sold for this reason. Our agents will respect your privacy and sell your home quickly and painlessly.
• Relocating for school. A great local agent can help interested homebuyers find the best possible school districts in your area.

Change of Life Cycle/Downsizing

• Retirement. Not only can our agents help sell your home, they can help you find local service providers to downsize furniture and other belongings.
• Empty nest. Once children have moved out of the home, it makes sense to downsize. Our agents will find the perfect buyers and can help you find a more suitable home as well.
