What real use are real estate agents if we can sell our home ourselves?
In: Economics
It’s difficult to answer this question because Realtors vary in quality so widely that it would be difficult to make accurate statements about them as a group. The difference between an excellent Realtor and one who is barely competent is significant. Also, your utility of a Realtor is tied directly to your own level of knowledge and comfort as a client either buying or selling, which brings me to my other point:
Since many Redditors are generally tech savy to some degree and are accustomed to researching various topics (yes, really!), many of them aren’t likely to require a Realtor quite as much as those people who are less accustomed to utilizing internet sources. For many folks out there who are still mystified about opening a PDF or using basic Microsoft Word functions, a Realtor can be an invaluable resource.
