Sell a house: which real-estate agent do you choose?
What do you pay attention to when choosing a real estate agent for the sale of your house? The rates of agents vary quite a bit. And what is the difference between a traditional and an internet real-estate agent? Determine which agent suits you best.
The traditional real-estate agent
Most traditional agents charge a commission in the form of 1 % of the sales price. 'Start-up costs' are often added upon this.
The internet real-estate agent
With an internet agent you do the viewings yourself, often with one or more open house moments. You make the advertisement text yourself and take the photos yourself. If necessary, you can hire a professional photographer. This can usually be arranged through the internet agent. Meanwhile, the internet agent can spend more time on statistics, market research, strategy, negotiations and legal aspects. The property owner pays a fixed rate and saves thousands of euros on commission.
Internet real-estate agent results are better!
