Do-it-yourself vs Hire a Professional

Don't you often wonder if you should do a job yourself, or hire an expert?

Some things are easy enough to do yourself, such as painting a bedroom, fixing the railings on your deck, or changing the oil in your car. By all means, why not save some money and time, and have the satisfaction of doing it yourself.
Then again, some things you would never dream of doing yourself, such as filling your teeth, removing a gall bladder, or painting a car. Many jobs are best left to someone with more credentials and experience. Not only with the results be much better, it will be quicker when handled by a pro.

The same concept applies to Real Estate. Sure, if you've got nothing better to do, and you have a lot of patience, why not try and sell your home without any help. How hard can it be, you think? Many people have had success by marketing their own homes in today's market. Many more have had equal success by hiring Real Estate professionals to do the job. Those who buy and sell multiple properties, know the value of a good agent, and wouldn't even consider for sale by owner. A good agent will be there when you need them, to answer questions and find resources that might be elusive. A good agent will advertise your property in a much more comprehensive way than you can do on your own. A good agent will be available 24/7, so you can concentrate on what you do best. Leave the scheduling and appointments to someone who cares. A licensed Realtor has been trained to market your home, and work with all parties to ensure a smooth and successful transaction. When the seller is happy, his agent has done a good job and is happy too.
