Real Estate Agents

If you think buying or selling a home is a simple matter of cruising open houses or posting a "for sale" sign on the front lawn, consider the following: Do you have access to every home for sale in the neighborhoods you're interested in? Do you have the time, energy and resources to research the housing market? Can you market a property effectively? Can you read real estate contracts and, if selling a home, do you understand your legal obligations toward buyers?

The fact of the matter is, buying and selling real estate can be complicated, not to mention the biggest financial decision most people ever make. With so much at stake, working with a professional real estate agent (or broker) can help you locate the right property at the right price, or negotiate the best deal possible if you're selling your home sweet home.
