No Magic Dust

The month of April is showing signs of life. The snow barely melted by the end of the month, but alas the grass is turning green. As the market begins to emerge into the real estate prime time (spring) you may find yourself wondering how you’re going to buy or sell your home in this current market.

There seems to be a false impression that real estate agents have some sort of magic dust that they sprinkle over your house to ensure it sells. The reality is, they don’t. In fact the success rate on ComFree is higher than that of agents and here’s why.

Sellers who used the ComFree Advantage to price lower and sell faster, have significantly lowered their days on market, and have put more money in their pockets than if they had sold through a real estate agent. Correspondingly, those who purchased a home on ComFree also paid less as the seller didn’t have to build the cost of commission into their asking price. It’s a true win-win and both buyer and seller receive the full support of the ComFree team to help make the transaction go smoothly.

Last month we promised some startling news that would surely surprise you; it even surprised us! We decided to track the results of those who cancelled their listing with ComFree after falling for the lines of an agent who promised them a faster sale and a higher price. The results were staggering. Not a single seller from September to April sold their home for more money on the mls. In fact many had to drop their price tens of thousands to make it sell with the agent.

Let’s face it, the magic dust was the price, and that’s something you, as a seller, have control over while on ComFree without paying commission. Most ComFree homes are now appraised by a 3rd party before going on the market, so it’s important to follow the guidance of that appraisal to ensure your home sells as quickly as possible, and for today’s market value. Still not convinced? ComFree offers a double your money back guarantee to anyone who pockets more money using an agent.
