Bonita Springs FSBO & Limited Service Listings
The importance of a great Bonita Springs Listing agent is regularly dismissed by many homeowners. From what I gather as I work with more and more homeowners is that the type, homeowner selling a house doesn’t quite understand what a good listing agent actually does. Getting a real estate license in Florida is incredibly easy and too many new real estate agents do the job poorly. As a result, there is a massive turn over for new agents.

There is a lot of work that can be done listing homes for sale in Bonita Springs FL. The profession of real estate has been watered down and a large segment of homeowners selling a house believe that we just put homes for sale in the MLS and literally wait for it to sell. Although that does happen with inexperience or lazy real estate agents. An experienced or properly trained listing agent will skim over a property when they see that it is overpriced for the community in which the home for sale is located.

I know of homeowners who decide to get a real estate license themselves to sell their home or list it with a flat fee discount establishment. The couple hundred dollars spent does not make up for the fact that homeowner is negotiating and is the primary contact to get a showing scheduled for the home. Homeowners involved in selling the home themselves are typically over chatty and diminish the buyer’s ability to experience the home for themselves.
When I represent clients as a buyer’s agent, I know that when I do a showing in a “For Sale By Owner Home or Flat Fee Limited Service Listing, I’m going to do a bulk of the work. The seller of the home likely does not understand the process and doesn’t have necessary documents to keep a contract together as it moves through different phases. In these instances, I’m pretty much doing the job of the Listing Agent for free at every step. I’m going to have to educate the seller of the home and negotiate with them and get their signature on the documents. This, of course, is something I do. I'd go over and beyond for customers. That’s what I take and it’s a genuine passion of mine.
However, not all buyer’s agents will do all the work. They’d likely rather show a different property and you’d get less traction from buyers. For buyers that do go under contract, it’s very easy for them to get upset or stressed during the process and pull back from the contract, and legally have their deposit refunded back because there are specific disclosures that were signed which are required by Florida Real Estate laws. Documents you might want to include are Flood Insurance, seller’s disclosures, HOA Disclosures, etc.
Although Limited Service listings aren’t necessarily a bad deal. You will get precisely what you are looking for. You give a specific amount of dollars for a set of items to be performed. The main problem is some the most essential resource that Bonita Springs Home Buyers need, are not on the list of services provided.
