When getting ready to buy or sell a house, there are a lot of Realtors and/or Real Estate Agents to choose from. You are probably asking yourself, “Which Realtor should I choose? Many have had their license for a long time but don’t necessarily sell many homes. Then, others just received their license, and although motivated, they have not sold many homes. They don’t have that much experience yet. There is nothing wrong with this; we all have to start somewhere. However, teaming up with an experienced Realtor would probably be a good idea for them to do.
Which Realtor Should You Choose?
When you hire the McT Real Estate Group, you are hiring an experienced real estate team to work for you. If you are searching for a Realtor to sell your house, you would only be speaking to me and my partner Z. Together, we have a total of 40 years of experience and have been through bad market and a few good markets as well. We have experienced different situations and know how to keep a transaction from falling out.
Hiring An Experience Realtor
The benefit of hiring an established team like the McT Real Estate Group is we have been there when an awful inspection takes place. We have sold many homes where terrible foundations have been discovered, both before and after getting into contract. We have also been around long enough to see lots of lender problems occur. With experiencing these things throughout the years, we know what to do when things go sideways. We have overcome a lot of these different situations and are well-versed in all kinds of things that take place when selling a home. There is not much that we have not seen, and we can work through them. This comes with years of day in and day out of working with people with the sale of their most prized possessions, their homes.
Selling A Home
These days, with all of the online data at our fingertips, one may think that buying and selling a home is very easy. However, selling a home is more than just putting a sign in front of the house and accepting someone’s offer. There are a lot of moving parts that take place with lots of people behind the scenes and lots of ongoing negotiations. Things will always come up when a seller accepts a buyer’s offer. After the buyer does their inspection, trust me, things come up, and this is when an experience is extremely important. Which Realtor you choose becomes apparent if you don’t choose the right one.
Recently, I have seen far too many newer agents that have just gotten their licenses and are not able to negotiate repairs after their inspection has taken place. They throw their hands in the air and cancel the contract. They are not working in their client’s best interest without realizing it.
We just experienced this on a home we sold a few months ago in North Park. Right after the first buyer’s agent canceled, we were able to immediately get another buyer and simply negotiate a very small credit. The first buyer’s agent did not understand older homes or negotiate through small hiccups that came up. Most everything is negotiable in Real Estate. Because of this, their client lost a beautiful home in a great neighborhood for what was negotiated off the price with the second buyer at $3,300.00. With the current low inventory in San Diego, I do wonder if that buyer ever found a home in the neighborhood or any other one.
