You are thinking about selling your house on your own- FSBO -
(for sale by owner) but are you somewhat uncomfortable with the whole process,
and would prefer to have an agent, but would also like to have some options on what it will cost
you....
The plans below are commission sales agreements, contingent
upon the sale of your home. You will be working with an agent in agency
capacity. Learn more about Washington Agency Law
here.
Full Service:
6% of selling price
You will receive a
CMA, your home will be listed on the NWMLS, you will receive the
Contract, Title, and Escrow Package, our complete
Marketing Package including print
advertising, direct mailing of postcards, and your home included in our
monthly e-newsletter. Half (3%) of the commission
will be paid to a buyer's agent. You will also have daily
communication (if you choose) on the progress of your sale, including how many
showings are taking place, number of calls, inquiries, etc. We will
contact agents who have shown or previewed the home and share their comments
with you. And finally you will have an option to "stage" the home by
professional interior decorators (contingent on the successful sale of the
home).
Dual Agency: 4%
of selling price
You will receive the
same listing services as the Full Service Plan, but in the event that we find a
buyer separate from the MLS or before another buyer's agent from the MLS does,
we will discount our service down to 4% of the selling price.
Be aware that if we
find a buyer and write a contract on their behalf, we are then working in the
capacity of a dual agent. Call us to learn more, or read the pamphlet on
Real Estate Agency
here. In short, a dual
agent plays a neutral role during the negotiations. If a buyer is willing
to sign a broker's Customer Agreement dual agency might be avoided.
Limited Listing:
4% of selling price
3% of the 4% total
will be paid to a buyer's agent, but in the event that we find a buyer
separate from the MLS or before another buyer's agent from the MLS does, we
will discount our service down to 3% of the selling price. This plan is
like the Dual Agency Plan, but with very limited services.
