** Research shows that nearly 50% of all home sellers begin trying to sell their property on
their own. Although some are successful with homes For Sale By Owner (FSBO), according to the latest National
Association of Realtors (NAR) home seller survey, only 16% sellers actually sell their home
without exposure on the MLS. And many of them end up giving away their commission savings to the
buyer to close the deal.
MLS services provide far greater exposure than traditional for sale by owner (FSBO) marketing
and advertising efforts. Relying on the traditional marketing and advertising associated with
a FSBO is limiting, at best. Also, it can be an expensive proposition. Ultimately, you may find
that most qualified buyers want or need the assistance of real estate brokers and agents.
Thus, your property will be exposed to more qualified buyers through the MLS network accessed
by Realtors. Also, agents and brokers will feel more comfortable dealing with you knowing that
their commissions are protected. Qualified buyers are those who have both a real motivation to
buy and the financial ability to buy. The truly professional real estate agent will ensure that
their buyers are pre-approved for financing before showing them homes in their area.
The Multiple Listing Service (MLS) is a cooperative marketing system which allows professional
Realtors® to share information about real estate for sale. It is the most powerful marketing tool
for a homeowner to sell their home. Regardless of which company an agent works for, he or she
has access to the same data base through their local board of Realtors®.
With Added Value Realty, you receive the benefits of the REALTOR® MLS at discounted prices.
