The Best Protection You Can Get When Buying A House Is Picking The Right Buyers Agent…

As you know, buying a Central Texas area property can be a big investment.

You’ve been searching online for properties, maybe for months. Pulling up Zillow or Realtor.com is probably a daily habit by now and you’ve seen lots of properties come and go since you started searching.

But now you’re ready to get serious, right?

That’s where it can be critical to work with the right New Braunfels real estate agent.

But, how do you know if you’ve found the right one?

Well, that’s what many local home buyers think at first…

… and some choose their friend who has their real estate agent license or that person they saw in the newspaper thinking that "All real estate agents in New Braunfels are the same."

But many later find out that the wrong buyer’s agent in New Braunfels could cause you to…

  • Lose the home you really want to another buyer because of an ill-prepared offer

  • Pay too much for a house based on emotion vs. solid facts

  • Waste hours and hours seeing homes that aren’t what you’re looking for

  • Miss out on an amazing house because it was a “For Sale By Owner” or Foreclosure and that agent isn’t experienced dealing with those types of sellers (or finding those properties)

  • Overlook issues with the house that could cost you tens of thousands of dollars and would have been noticed with years of experience working with the right inspectors and professionals

    …and more

Not all agents work the same way. The most important attribute of an agent is that they are well connected to the real estate industry. They should know the market and provide information on past sales, current listings, their marketing plan, and at least 4 solid references. In addition, you also want to look for an agent that is honest, assertive, and one that best understands your needs.

Try to go with a local agent. They can better serve your needs because they should be more familiar with the local market conditions, local prices, and what’s hot or not in your community.

For Sale By Owner – A Good Idea?

FSBO (pronounced fizz-bo), or For Sale By Owner, is a way of selling your home without the use of a professional real estate agent or broker. The idea behind FSBO is that by selling your home yourself, you save the approximate 6% that would be the agents’ commission.

6% may not sound like a lot, but it can add up, especially on more expensive homes. But before you run off and decide to sell your home FSBO, you must remember that to get savings like that, there must be a cost. So what’s the catch? Selling FSBO is hard. A lot harder.

Only about 10% of sellers that decide to do FSBO are successful at it. And not all of them end up saving themselves money. FSBO sellers often end up accepting a lower price for their home than they would with an agent.

There are of course other issues as well. Can you afford to make selling your home your full time job? Because for a lot of FSBO sellers, that’s exactly what it is. Do you have the time and capital to spend on the marketing, advertising, inspections, paperwork, phone calls, showings, and problems that come up when any home is sold?

Selling with a professional agent also has other advantages. An agent can get your home listed on the MLS (Multiple Listing Service) and other popular websites where not only homebuyers but also other agents can easily find it. Professional real estate agents also have an extensive network that allows them to more easily find a buyer.

So before you decide to sell your home yourself, thoughtfully consider just how much time and effort you can spare for selling your home, as well as how important it is that your home sell sooner rather than later.
