Why the sale of a house or apartment with a real estate agent pays off for you

The growth of the German real estate industry did not halt even in 2019 - the time to sell an apartment or house has never been better in Germany thanks to the considerable demand, the low interest rate on bank loans and generally high asking prices.

Are you considering taking advantage of the opportunity to profitably sell your property to benefit from the added value of the home or apartment? Then you should get in touch with a reputable real estate agent in order to harness the full potential of your property for sale.

The following article will give you an insight into the decisive advantages that you get from a professional real estate agent marketing over the sales on your own.

Do you know the reasonable price point of your property in Germany? Your real estate agent will find it for you!

Many private owners of houses or apartments in Germany lack the necessary prior experience and the technical know-how to correctly assess the current value of their own property. The consequence is that a self-imposed selling price is based on a wrong basis. Although a selling price that is set too low often leads to short selling times, it simply gives away part of your own capital - a mistake that should be avoided at all costs. On the other hand, an excessively high offer price has the opposite effect: potential buyers refrain from buying, so that the property stays on the market for a long time and the impression of being inhabitable arises. In order to define a really reasonable selling price, in addition to a specific location, equipment, year of construction, size and condition of the house or apartment, the current market situation in Germany with possible competitive offers and other factors must be included - a private seller rarely has access to all the necessary Information.

If you turn to a competent real estate agent, you benefit from years of location experience in your regional market: Thanks to comprehensive comparison values, a complete overview of the current real estate offer in your area and an eye for all the necessary details, you can work with your real estate agents at Engel & Völkers Germany to determine both the value and a suitable sales price range, which leaves enough room to figure out the final sales price, depending on the speed or return of the sale. Since the brokerage fee for the real estate broker is usually split between the buyer and the seller and only covers a fraction of the total sales made, it is always preferable to consult the real estate broker against improper valuation.

The real estate agent sales order contributes to your relief

In addition to the question of the right price of your real estate for sale, hiring a real estate agent also brings along some crucial benefits in terms of comfort and time savings. When it comes to a successful real estate sale, there is much more to it than just the mere upload of the offer into an online real estate portal: viewing appointments want to be organized and carried out, contract documents require preparation and customization. But the abundance of administration and communication, which makes a real estate sale necessary, requires many hours of work. If you want to create a meaningful synopsis with digital impressions of your property that convinces potential buyers right from the first impression, the sale in its entirety can quickly become a full-time endeavor.

A trusted real estate agent will take care of all these tasks for you. Through their routine work within this field of activity, they can perform all the necessary work not only faster but also better in terms of quality than is usually possible in the private context. This way, you can make good use of the time quota won and at the same time benefit from a satisfactory sales result that your real estate agent realizes for you.

In summary, the decision to sell a home or apartment with real estate agents proves to be consistently worthwhile, both financially, temporally and qualitatively.
