5 Reasons Not To Hire A Realtor | Oahu, Hawaii

1. You Don’t Want Anyone to Know Your Home is for Sale

The first job of an agent is to get your home exposure. I’m Fawn Bertram with Homes by Fawn and Hawaii Life Real Estate. If you want the market to notice you, you need to be on the market.

2. You Want to DIY Your Biggest Investment

DIY is great for hobbies. You botch a craft, you can throw it out and start over. But if you botch the sale of your home, it could cost you tens of thousands of dollars.

3. When Safety is Not a Concern

Let’s face it, there are some shady people out there, and they are looking for easy prey. If no professionals are involved, you’re making their job that much easier. Do you really want strangers walking around your home with no accountability? I wouldn’t.

4. You Like Headaches

Selling can be a logistical nightmare. Are you available at all times to show it? Do you understand the contract, disclosures, and legalities? These are complex transactions, and it’s easy to make costly mistakes if you don’t know what to look for.

5. You Want to Sell for Less

A recent stat showed FSBO homes sold on average for $208,700 vs. agent sold homes for $235,000. Not only do you make more money, but you also have the benefit of a professional looking out for you from beginning to end.
