Thinking of selling your Bellingham area home in 2023?

Having a Professional on Your Side Makes a Difference

In today’s fast-paced world where answers are a Google search away, there are some who may second-guess the benefits of hiring a real estate professional. The truth is, the addition of more information brings more confusion. Shows like Property Brothers, Fixer Upper, and dozens more on HGTV have given many a false sense of what it’s like to buy or sell a home. Now more than ever, you need an expert on your side to guide you toward your dreams and not let anything get in your way of achieving them. Buying or selling your Bellingham home is definitely not something you want to DIY (Do It Yourself )! Here are just some of the reasons you need a real estate professional in your corner: There’s More to Real Estate Than Finding a House You Like Online There are over 230 possible steps that must take place during every successful real estate transaction. Determining your price, submitting an offer, and successful negotiation are just a few key parts in the process. Don’t you want someone who has been there before? Someone who knows what the actions are to ensure you achieve your dream? You Need a Skilled Negotiator In today’s market, hiring a talented negotiator could save you thousands, even tens of thousands of dollars. Each step of the way – from the original offer to the possible renegotiation of that offer after a home inspection, to the potential cancellation of the deal based on a troubled appraisal – you need someone who can keep the deal together until it closes. Having a Professional on Your Side Makes a Difference 13 14 What Is the Home You’re Buying or Selling Worth in Today’s Market?
