Real Estate is still one of the top investment choices a person can make. It is also one of those areas where you are better off using licensed and experienced experts to handle the complexity of buying or selling property. It isn’t just simply posting your property online and waiting or hoping for a buyer to be found and vice versa.

With all the information available about buying and selling real estate, it is easy to get overwhelmed. How do you sift through it all to find the most up-to-date and accurate information?! There is a lot of good information out there, but there are also a lot of myths. Let’s talk about some common myths.

For sale by owner saves a lot of money.
The only thing that this will save is commission fees paid out to realtors. By going down this route, there are numerous issues that can arise – such as overpricing the property and missing a window to sell, or not properly vetting and verifying a buyer, where they end up being declined and the whole sale is lost. Also, you won’t have years of experience behind you to negotiate the best possible price and concessions.

All agents are the same.
This is absolutely not true. While the transactions may technically be the same, the experience can be smooth and a lot less stressful by using an agent who has expertise in the real estate market and has developed relationships with their preferred lenders and attorneys. Bill Sohl at Parkland Luxury Real Estate provides superior service and attention to detail because of his intimate knowledge of every step in the process. He provides an impressive networking team to help clients have the best experience buying or selling a home. If you choose to work with Parkland Luxury Real Estate, you will see firsthand that all agents are not the same.

A home is always ready to sell.
Well – not entirely true. When getting ready to sell a home, there are a lot of items that need to be checked off to have a better chance of selling your home. You need to get those minor repairs completed and get your house cleaned and staged. You want your home to look its best
and for everything to be working properly so that potential buyers can imagine and get excited about it being their home.

You don’t need an agent to buy a home.
Sure, technology has helped with getting immediate price estimates for buying real estate – but an agent becomes your advocate to getting the best price with current market conditions. They are there to negotiate on your behalf and ensure that you are making the proper purchase.

Preapproval isn’t necessary.
The exact opposite is true, especially when dealing with luxury real estate. Unless you’re doing an all-cash deal, getting pre-approved by your local mortgage specialist shows that you are serious about buying a home. It also shows exactly how much you’re able to afford and helps narrow down the available options.

These are just a few of the real estate myths out there. Rather than trying to navigate through the real estate process on your own (and risk costly mistakes!), contact the Parkland Luxury Real Estate team here.
