Working With "For Sale By Owner" Property
When looking through this market, you may find a home for sale by the owner directly that you might be interested in. Typically, the seller pays the real estate fees when using another Realtor®. Many buyers think that when they choose to buy a home from an owner directly, they may be getting a “deal”.
To make an informed decision, it is important to know what the local neighborhood home values are. Your EXIT Realty agent can pull this historical data and compile it in an easy to digest way for you. It is a miserable thing to pay too much for a home and try to sell it years later, only to walk away having paid into the house to sell it, or just barely breaking even. Buy your home today at today's prices. We will help make sure the price is in line with the market so that you can enjoy potential future appreciation.
Not only would you want to avoid paying too much for a home, you probably should be wary of a contract written up with no expert help. When using a EXIT Realty Realtor®, you know you are being protected in the contract. The current contract EXIT Realty requires is a compilation of years of real estate transactions, and is approved by the Arizona Department of Real Estate and Arizona Association of Realtors. Both you and the seller should have a clear picture of what is expected in your contract, including inspection contingencies, loan information, disclosures from the seller, what happens if the contract is breached, and many other items. The current contract used by real estate professionals is nine pages. It is our job at EXIT Realty to guide you through the contract, allow you time to feel comfortable with it, make the contract fit your needs, answer your questions and make sure all parties are abiding by the requirements set forth in the contract.
For our local Verde Valley , we have a three page supplement, as well as an insurance addendum to set the stage for securing an insurance policy that can't be revoked once you move into the home, and a mold disclosure. You should also receive and review a five page seller property disclosure the seller furnishes. If you are transferring property outside of a subdivision or city, there is an Affadavit of Land Disclosure the seller should fill out. Additional information is available to you if you are buying a home that has a well, a septic system or was built prior to 1978.
If you think you can buy a home and be well protected without the help of an expert that can foresee potential pitfalls and recognize any red flags, you might think again. The price of someone protecting your rights, watching out for your interests, and guiding you through the maze to ensure you are 100% informed is more than worth the security you will enjoy. Employ a professional Realtor to protect your investment and have peace of mind.
