The Buyer's Agent- The Top 10 Questions to AI when Buying Real Estate l Guest: Mike and Brock

Home sellers, just like buyers, have a specific set of concerns and questions they need answered to feel confident in the process. Their questions often revolve around pricing, timing, and what to expect during the transaction.

Here are the top 10 questions home sellers have, based on common inquiries and market trends:

What is my home really worth? This is the most fundamental question. Sellers want to know a realistic and accurate valuation of their property in the current market. They often seek a comparative market analysis (CMA) from their agent, which compares their home to similar properties recently sold in the area.

How do we determine the best asking price? While related to the home's value, this question is about strategy. Sellers want to know if they should price it high to leave room for negotiation, or price it competitively to attract multiple offers and a bidding war. The answer depends heavily on local market conditions.

What repairs or improvements should I make before listing? Sellers want to know what they can do to get the best return on their investment. They are looking for advice on whether to undertake major renovations or just focus on smaller, cosmetic fixes like a fresh coat of paint, decluttering, or enhancing curb appeal.

What are the total costs involved in selling my home? Sellers are often surprised by the number of fees they are responsible for. They want a clear breakdown of all expenses, including real estate agent commissions, closing costs, title fees, transfer taxes, and any money they may need to spend on staging, photography, or repairs.

How will you market my home to attract buyers? Sellers want to know their agent has a comprehensive marketing plan. This includes questions about professional photography, virtual tours, online listings (on MLS, Zillow, etc.), social media promotion, and open houses.

How long will it take to sell my home? This is a question about a seller's timeline. They want to set realistic expectations for the process, from the time it is listed to when the transaction is closed. This timeline is crucial if they are also planning to buy a new home.

Is now a good time to sell? Sellers are always trying to time the market. They want to know if it's a seller's market (fewer homes for sale, high demand) or a buyer's market (more homes, lower demand). Their agent should provide a clear picture of the current market climate in their specific neighborhood.

What should I disclose to potential buyers? This is a key legal and ethical question. Sellers want to know what property issues or defects they are legally required to disclose to buyers to avoid future legal complications. The rules for disclosure vary by state and local laws.

What if a buyer's offer comes with contingencies? Offers with contingencies (e.g., home inspection, appraisal, or financing) are common. Sellers want to understand what these mean, which ones are negotiable, and what the risks are of accepting an offer with certain conditions.

How will you handle multiple offers? In a hot market, sellers may receive multiple offers. They want to know how their agent will organize and present these offers, and what strategies they can use to negotiate the best possible price and terms, not just the highest bid.
