1. A real estate transaction is complicated.
In most cases, buying or selling a home requires disclosure forms, inspection reports, mortgage documents, insurance policies, deeds and multi-page government mandated settlement statements. A knowledgeable guide through this complexity can help you avoid delays or costly mistakes.

2. Selling or buying a home is time consuming.
Even in a strong market, homes in our area stay on the market for an average of 190 days. And it usually takes another 60 days or so for the transaction to close after on offer is accepted.


3. Real estate has its own language.
If you don't know a CMA from a PUD, you can understand why it's important to work with someone who speaks that language.

4. REALTORS have done it before.
Most people buy and sell only a few homes in their lifetime, usually with quite a few years in between each transaction. Even if you've done it before, laws and regulations change. That's why having an expert on your side is critical.

5. REALTORS provide objectivity.
Since a home often symbolizes family, rest and security, not just for walls and a roof, home selling or buying is often a very emotional undertaking. For most people, a home is the biggest purchase they'll ever make. Having a concerned, but objective third party helps you keep focused on both the business and emotional issues most important to you.

Here's one more thing you should know...
REALTORS are members of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS, a trade organization of more than 1 million members nationwide. REALTORS subscribe to a stringent code of ethics that helps guarantee the highest level of service and integrity.
