WHY DIVORCING COUPLES NEED A REALTOR

Selling a home can be stressful.  Add divorce to that, and it can compound matters.  Couples who are best able to cooperate share the largest amount of money.

Realtors do more than just sell houses.  They facilitate the cooperation between divorcing couples and their respective attorneys.  They also function as a neutral third party to help both couples achieve the task at hand which is getting the home sold.  A Realtor should be one of the first professionals you consult with when facing divorce and if you decide to sell.  They perform the following important functions:

Prepare a market analysis on the home- Based on current market conditions and other factors, your Realtor will provide you a suggested asking price as well as a probable sales price.  Additionally, they will have a detailed marketing plan explaining the necessary steps they will take in order to achieve a successful sale.

Prepare the home for sale- Realtors are experts in suggesting cost-effective strategies to best show the home.  They have a wealth of resources to refer out when helping a homeowner prepare to sell.

Manage showing the home- Realtors will be able to coordinate all showings for your home, making it hands-free for you.  Additionally, they ensure all buyers are pre-approved before showing them homes.

Facilitating the purchase agreement process- Realtors understand the complicated legalese and can guide you during the negotiations in order to maintain the highest possible value for your home.
