Realtors also belong to multiple listing services. These services swing into action when a home is listed by a member firm. Information on each home is broadcast by computer to every other real estate agent who belongs to the service. This allows hundreds of agents to show your home to potential buyers at the invitation of the listing agent. The asking price must attract buyers, be competitive with similar homes, and allow for some negotiation.
Many sellers lose money at the outset with improper pricing.
It is best to use a professional when making the critical decision of the asking price. A seller could become intimidated by the buyer and sell the home for less than it is worth. The seller also may betray how anxious he or she is and give the buyer reason to drive a hard bargain while negotiating. An objective and experienced Realtor can help protect the interests of the seller and obtain a fair market price. Without Authorization is Strictly Prohibited.
