No. That's the short answer. The long answer is that you have options. You as the seller can still make an offer compensation, but we (your agent) cannot include it on a Multiple Listing Service (MLS). You still have the choice of offering compensation to buyer brokers. You may consider doing this as a way of marketing your home or making your listing more attractive to buyers. You can also request that buyer agents include compensation with their client's offer, though it could make your property less attractive to some buyers.

Not even close. Discount agents often lack the experience, resources, and commitment needed to sell your home for its maximum value. They may cut corners on marketing, reducing your home's exposure to potential buyers, and their negotiation skills might not be up to par, leaving you with a lower final sale price. Choosing a discount agent might seem like a way to save money, but it can end up costing you more in the long run.

Zestimates can provide a general idea of your home’s value, but they are not always accurate. They rely on automated data and algorithms that don't account for unique features, recent upgrades, or local market nuances. For example, Zillow's iBuyer program, Zillow Offers, was shut down after losing over $1 billion due to their inability to accurately predict home prices​. This highlights the limitations of relying solely on automated valuations. For a precise and personalized home valuation, it's best to consult with a real estate professional who can conduct a thorough market analysis and consider the specific characteristics of your property. Our team can provide you with an accurate home valuation to help you understand your home’s true market value.

The best time to sell a home depends on your unique circumstances rather than a specific season. Historically, there is a slight increase in closings in March, but overall, there isn't a significant difference from one month to the next. The market balances out as more listings attract more buyers, maintaining competitiveness. Ultimately, the ideal time to sell is when you are ready and your home is prepared for the market.

Some well-known figures like Suze Orman, Grant Cardone, and Nicholas Gerli (Reventure Consulting) often predict dramatic downturns in the real estate market. However, it's important to understand that these predictions can be aimed at attracting attention and selling their books, courses, or to get views & sell ads. Our focus is helping real people, like you. Historically, real estate has been a stable investment, with only one significant period in the past century where home values declined over a 10-year span. The current market shows no signs of a crash, home buyers are strong financially, and investing in real estate (espeically buying and selling your primary residence) continues to be a sound financial decision and the number one way people build wealth.

Waiting for interest rates to drop could mean missing out on a strong market for sellers. While lower rates might attract more buyers, they also increase competition among sellers, potentially driving down your home's value. Listing now allows you to take advantage of the current market conditions, where motivated buyers are still actively searching for homes. Additionally, as a seller, you can capitalize on the lower inventory and higher demand, positioning your home for a quicker sale at a favorable price.
