The most common reason that people are afraid to buy or sell is because of something they read online or heard from a friend of a friend about the state of the market. But if we told you that many of those spooky stories you’ve heard were myths? Look below for some of the most common real estate myths and the truths behind them! ⬇️

❌ MYTH: You’ll make more money selling without an agent.
✅ FACT: Selling FSBO (“for sale by owner”) may seem like an easy path, but it’s been shown to bring in LESS money! Our agents can accurately assess the fair market value of your home to make sure you’re pricing properly, then help you navigate and negotiate your most promising offers!

❌ MYTH: A good-looking home doesn’t need an inspection.
✅ FACT: No matter how new or nice a house appears, there could always be potential problems hiding under the surface, and you don’t want to be stuck with them once the keys are in your hands! Without an inspection, you’ll never know what kind of problems (and costs) are in store!

❌ MYTH: Renovations before selling will guarantee a dollar-for-dollar return on your investment.
✅ FACT: While a new bathroom or carpet will make a home more appealing and potentially help it sell faster, you should not assume that this will automatically generate an equal return. If you plan to sell your home soon, connect with one of our agents before you undertake any major home improvement projects. We can advise you on which renovations and repairs will generate a higher sale price and which aren’t worth your time.

❌ MYTH: All real estate agents are interchangeable.
✅ FACT: There is no such thing as one-agent-fits-all. All realtors have very different personalities, skills, and experiences. Our team of real estate professionals have a broad range of backgrounds and skillsets to educate and assist you with your real estate needs.
