Real Estate and Realtors - Part 2



Visit Part 1 if you have not yet.

If you are considering delving into the housing market, you may be wondering if you really do need a Realtor. Exactly what does a Realtor do besides offer advice to clients? An agent or Realtor plays an important role in the entire process.

Basically, a Realtor will start by listing a property or looking at properties that are available. In some cases, only Realtors can look at certain properties. Only Realtors can list a property as well. Realtors can also schedule showings of the home and take prospective buyers or renters around the property. In addition, they can provide valuable feedback after the home showings. For this reason, a Realtor is worth the investment.

Another thing to keep in mind is that Realtors are very familiar with the local real estate market as well as the different buyers and sellers in the area. They may also know of other Realtors that are looking for certain types of properties, or know of Realtors who have clients that wish to rent a home. In other words, your Realtor can do the networking necessary to make the connections you need to sell, buy or rent your home. Because this can take quite a bit of time, many buyers and sellers elect to hire a professional to do these tasks.

If other professionals are needed, like an attorney or contractors, a realtor can also make recommendations. A Realtor can also make suggestions about things that will be necessary in order to sell or rent a home. For example, a fresh coat of paint or new flooring in the kitchen.

So the next time you think you might need a Realtor, you probably do.
