If you’re selling your home, choosing the right agent to represent you is crucial. That’s why when our clients come to us, we make sure to explain our fiduciary role in the relationship, meaning we are legally obligated to help them get the most money possible for their homes.
Recently, there have been many gimmicks in the market, such as the iBuyer programs, that promise to get you top dollar for your home. Some of them are very beneficial to sellers, but some aren’t. For example, the company Opendoor misled its seller clients and was fined $62 million by the Federal Trade Commission.
Sellers should be cautious when choosing who’ll represent them. All the boxes have to be checked so that everything goes as smoothly as possible during and after the transaction. Be wary of companies who want to rush the sale; they’re likely not looking out for your best interests and want to move on to the next person.
