Real Estate

propery is on a spring fed fresh water lake and is a unique, one of a kind property .with perenial flower gardens,southern exposure,water is so clean you can drink it.lots of stone border work,granite steps to the water,giant trees, stone,boulder waterfront patio,stone texas firepit. large upper and lower decks overlooking the lake… i want to find someone who really would appreciate this property .i dont want to pay a 10 percent real estate fee . just want to find that right person.

there is no law that requires
any property owner to hire
anyone to help them sell it.

YOU can list the property
in newspapers, magazines, etc.

–fyi–
across the US, those who try to sell
their property themselves
get their asking price one tenth of
the time and have no closing problem
1/20th of the time.

A licensee in most states,
must understand the process to
get the listing,
examining the property,
putting it on the MLS and
other systems,
finding a good buyer’s agent
and making sure the buyer’s agent
qualifies their buyers and gets
the loan coordinated.

and then, opens up escrow/title
and keep close watch on that
and then, makes sure
that insurance is available to cover
all the components and furnishings
in the house.

but you may do all this yourself.
no problem.

   Just do a for sale by owner. I am assuming that 10 percent real estate fee is a agent fee. Look it up in your local/state website. every states have its own quirks.

   in my state it is 6 % fee and if you want the best price and take the liability of yourself get the agent! Real Estate industry is has the most lawsuits because there are so many disclosures etc.
