Washington County Discount Realtor*
District of Columbia

What are the benefits of using a Discount Realtor in Washington County, DC? First, your market exposure is endless. Not only will your property be listed in the local MLS for Realtors® to see, your listing will be fed to hundreds of websites throughout not only Washington County, DC, but the whole country. This market presence will not only effect the selling price of your home, but it will also increase the number of potential buyers, cutting down on the amount of time you spend on the market. The other benefit of using a Discount Realtor is that you will be making the most cost efficient choice possible. With a Discount Realtor, you just pay a flat fee up front, and do not have to pay half of the commission that you would with a traditional Realtor®. So the amount of money that you save with a Discount Realtor will be thousands of dollars.

The way that homes are sold in Washington County, DC has changed drastically over the past 30 years. It used to be that a Realtor® would choose what homes their prospective buyer would look into purchasing. Nowadays the actual buyer is in charge of what homes they want to see. This is primarily because real estate information is more readily available to buyers today. Why does this make a Discount Realtor a more favorable option? With a Discount Realtor your home will be listed on both your local MLS, and Realtor.com®. Although the past 30 years have seen the way that homes sell change, the numbers have not. The National Association of Realtors has been keeping records of home sales in Washington County, DC, and they have found that, on average, 85% of homes are sold with traditional Realtors®, while 15% are sold as For Sale By Owner. What this means is that you, as a For Sale By Owner, will reach only 15% of the market on average. With a Discount Realtor you will be given the type of market exposure that will allow you to reach all 100% of the market. With a Discount Realtor you also save thousands of dollars. When you sign up with a Discount Realtor you pay a flat fee, and your home is listed on the local MLS and Realtor.com™. But when you sell your home a Discount Realtor does not take half of the commission, like a traditional Realtor® would. The combination of market exposure and the savings make a Discount Realtor your best choice.
