I sold my house by myself in 2020- I made 12K more than all the local realtors told me I could get. Their advice was 100% wrong. I am very creative and I just watched many videos on staging and I attracted a buyer within 3 weeks of posting my ad. I took the pics myself- I hired someone for a flat fee (a broker) and although the buyers agent was rude and very combative, I did sell my home and save 3%. It was worth it and I would do it again.
Their fees have become absurd. My parents were being approached by developers who wanted their land to tear down their home and build a much larger house on the land. They didn't care about the home. They just wanted the land. But to go through a real estate agent they were going to end up paying them over $65,000. So, instead, they went to the title company and paid for the necessary forms. Then they paid for an independent appraiser to come out and give their home and land an appraisal. They used that to set their price. And they paid for an independent home inspector to come out and do a thorough home inspection and then put all that information on their seller's disclosure and even added the home inspector's report so the buyer could not later say they did not know the condition of the property. The buyer tried to lowball them, but they only came down a little bit from the appraisal and the buyer finally accepted it. Then they all went to the title company to sign and notarize the forms and to get the money deposited in escrow.
dude that is the FUTURE for a LOT of transactions. Little by little the Realtor will go by by. had a real estate license from 91 till 2022. and let it go for that reason. Only complicated transactions and troubled properties will be sold with a listing agent and eventually those will be gone too.
@@rudygrant5039 I also would have never used 3% on the buyers agent side. Only 2 to 2.5 depending on the size. over a million I would only pay out 1%.....and it would get sold. Look online for a list with MLS diy site. they are all over the place. costs about $100.
No doubts , a good way of growing and saving your money is through investing . You don't need to have much before you can invest. "That little money you have now can make you millions if you invest it wisely". I wasnt financial free until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, bought my second house already, earn on a monthly through passive income and got 4 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future! Investing is a grand choice I made..
I initially started my investment journey with the guidance of an investment advisor named Regina Louise Collaro..She's widely recognized for her expertise, so you might have come across her name. Her transparent approach granted me full control of my investments, and her fees are reasonable, considering my return on investment.Now, I benefit from her income strategies every month.Nonetheless, it's crucial to conduct thorough research before engaging with any investment advisor
Regina Louise Collaro is based in the United States and can work with anybody wherever they stay. If you would like more information on reaching her, you can conduct a search online.
Cathenido this is crazy 😧,you are correct, and I am only one of many who gained from working with Regina Louise Collaro. I had no reason to live when I lost my job due to COVID in 2020, and it will always be a memorable year in my life. Regina made it possible for me to live comfortably through passive income, thus I owe her my life. To be completely honest, I think she is an angel who was sent to help those who are struggling financially❤
I have had the intentions of starting investing. But I always thought it was late and I think I need to stop procrastinating. I will definitely 🔍 Regina Louise Collaro and see what she can advise .Thanks a lot . This was of so much help to me .
Sell your home at a profits Make an extra $100,000 or $200,000 Increase the cost of living on your kids $100,000.00 + so that your kids gotta work that much extra time away from their home and family Sell your home for a profit the effect is immediate & they can pay for the slavery you forced upon them better yet make the basic simple necessity of a home more & more unattainable a completely out of reach goal Have your kids go work everyday for money made from paper made from cotton 👁️ ∆ 💵 and put Egyptian pyramid on it so that they know that their slaves in Egypt And you made their bed with Egyptian cotton sheets because you were mentally asleep get them to sign mortgages and loans / get them "sign" on a "flat line" EKG ________________________ SIgN herE Instead of living being a gift enslave them!

@@isaiahdurenrealestate Yea as an agent I hated listing interviews. They would take all the information you gave them and sell FSBO.....Waste of money. things are changing. I gave up my license 2 years ago. Had it since 1991.
If I went with a realtor today, I would instantly lose $20,000 just by “using” a realtor. I’ve sold 1 home and purchased 2. In every case the realtor has done next to nothing except organize meetings and paperwork. IMO that is not worth $20,000!!!!! Insane. I’m not stupid, and Zillow gives me a nice relative price for selling the home. What a scam
Am in Puerto Rico realtors do not do CMA. Realtor don’t have buyers reorientation. Only for sellers. They want me to sign a blank contract than they’ll fill the blanco. Not kitting
NEVER, EVER --- NEVER, EVER SIGN A BLANK CONTRACT TO SELL OR BUY ANYTHING... HOUSE, CAR, APPLIANCE.... NOT ANYTHING... NOT EVER!!! Consult with an attorney that successful/wealthy business people use for their business transactions (research this and talk to people to find word-of-mouth referrals) and do research on how you can have the best outcome. In your comment, you reference "They want me to sign a blank contract....." I don't know who THEY are but you need to block THEIR phone number and not deal with these unscrupulous people!
Right away from comparing a "phone photo" of a wall with no furniture, to a staging photo with the right angle was very deceptive. Trying to insinuated the realtor photo with staging was better.
Thanks for your comment but it wasn't a "realtor photo", it was done by a professional photographer. The point isn' "hire a realtor"...the point is "a professional photographer is worth their pay." Anyone can hire a professional photographer...not just real estate agents!!
@@NavytoNavyHomes they were saying in a nice way that you suck at taking photos and anyone can take a great photo. If anything, the staging is the more important factor in your examples.
@@RobertoMezquiaJr thanks for the amplification. Most people can not take a true HDR photo without overlaying several photos with a software like Adobe. Even if your cell phone has a feature or app...the pros can still do it better. That was our point. Yes, the examples were extreme.
@@MarioGonzalez-oq9bp today's smartphones can take "true hdr" photos and process them on device. The cameras literally take several photos the moment you press the shutter and then overlay them to get what appeals visually. There's even a "Pro" mode on some flagship phones that allow you to use the full 50mp or 100mp sensor and even allow you to save the RAW data of the photo for later processing in something like Adobe. I do agree that pros can take better photos 90% of the time but someone with a cell phone, who knows how to take photos, can also get some great shots. Especially since people viewing those photos will do so from a phone or website which compresses them anyways. Your examples are what the people commenting on had issues with. They just weren't a true representation of what someone could do with a phone. Good luck to you and thanks for the video!
@@NavytoNavyHomes you mentioned in the video 2 times you would post the link to the full steps and months later you haven't despite several people asking. This video wasn't that helpful to me, but the full steps would have been.
What kind of paperwork do I need , if I received an offer for my home all cash no contingency do I do just the regular “as is “contract? My title is clean and they are not doing any inspection, selling a fixer-upper, which is my own
Hi, it's 3 months later... did you sell your home. I would appreciate it if you would give me and the viewers an update on if you sold your home and what kind of paperwork you needed as well as if you used an attorney. Thank you.
I find nothing more offputting than a you tube channel where I'm asked to smash the subscribe button before a thing comes out of the person's mouth to show they have earned my subscription.
Lucy, thanks for taking the time to comment. We are certainly glad that you don't experience anything worse than our offputting request to subscribe. Sorry to ruin your day.
Homes in my area are selling in 1 day above asking price, with over a dozen offers. My concern is the contract, when to get money in escrow, who pays appraisal and inspection. I am going to use a real estate attorney for the closing. Also thinking about selling my house AS IS. I don’t want some inspector trying to get me to fix this, paint that, etc. Thoughts ?
The offers are usually submitted on your local "standard" form. You can counteroffer on your own form if you like. Everything is negotiable. The buyer will pay for the appraisal and inspection. Who pays for what should all be spelled out in the contract. Read it carefully and make sure that you understand everything. The buyer's lender usually has their own appraisers and the buyer usually finds their own home inspector. There may be more than one inspection. The general inspector may find things that he recommends to the buyer that a specialist checks out, like a roof issue or a structural issue. The buyer may want a specialist to look at the plumbing with a scope and even remove toilets to do it. You don't have to allow invasive inspections. You have the right to sell your house as-is. This will reduce the number of buyers you will accept offers from. Some types of loans such as VA, FHA and Farm loans may require that certain repairs be made, or they won't approve the loan. You want to have your home in the MLS using a flat fee agent. There's an MLS listing form which has check boxes for which types of buyer loans you're OK with. If you will not make repairs, just check "cash" and "conventional loan". If you check VA loan, etc. and you're asked to make repairs, you don't have to, but if you don't the buyer will not get their loan and the house will fall out of escrow. You need to study up on various contract contingencies such as loan contingencies, appraisal contingencies, inspection contingencies, low appraisal contingencies, etc. There's a lot to know, but it's all out there on line if you look.
@@bananapatch9118 do you want to buy a house "as is"? Would you pay more for a home with minor updates? Paint, carpet, landscaping? 80% of people are willing to pay more for updates
@@lifeinnorthernutah1846 80% of updates don't raise the sale price enough to cover the cost of the update. Paint provides the best return on investment.
As of June 2022, more has changed in the last 30 days than in the last 2 years. Almost 75% of the buyers are out of the market with increasing interest rates.
There are several steps. I would be happy to guide you through it. You can email me or call me. For starters, I would get a written contract to protect you and the buyer regarding the terms you have agreed upon. Secondly, you need to contact a Title company (if in Florida) and I would strongly recommend that you use with that is run by a real estate attorney, locally. They can guide you though many of the future steps.
As an ex agent this guy over exaggerated everything. His pictures are hilarious. You can easily list it on MLS for a fee around $700 and you need a lawyer at $1000. You should offer 2% commission to buyers agents to get the traffic "doesn't mean you have to go with someone with an agent." I may put "don't let your agent steer you away from this gem because of the slightly lower commission" lol steering is illegal but never prosecuted and a large % of buyer agents do it
FOUL BALL! Sure looked like a dining room to me. I can get the same effect by changing the viewport and adding furniture, and by starting off with an inferior camera, and with the intention of making a point.
😂No joke . He literally took a close-up picture of only the WALL. Of course the 2nd photo is gonna do it justice when you back up 20 ft and add the decor.
Brian, take a look at the two photos again and see how much area the professional photo took without warping the space. It is significantly different than a cell phone photo. It also used HDR photo layering where they take a good exterior photo and overlay it on the best interior photo...much better than any HDR app on a phone.
🤦 why do RU-vidrs in an ADD generation decide to give you common sense information like clean the place and make it look nice before you sell it? Just over important stuff, make it very short and to the point.
LOL. Pretty funny. In our current market, sales have slowed considerably and days on market are going up while prices are getting lower and lower. However, the best realtors out there are still getting top dollar for their customers and on average sell higher than over 80% of FSBOs.
Because an agent earns a lot of commission for something that you can do yourself if you have half a brain, and you could save some money if you know what you're doing. Why pay a mechanic to fix your car if you can do it yourself?
@@robertstevens2030 Or maybe because you don't have the expertise. I prefer to work on a car myself because I know it's getting done right, doesn't take any longer than waiting for somebody else to do it, and I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty. Do you have more important things to do than to sell your house? You pay an agent a LOT of money for doing very little work. If you knew how easy it really is (uploading some info. to the MLS and talking to a few buyers' agents), you might feel you're getting ripped off, because you are.
