Why Should You Work With a Real Estate Agent to Buy or Sell a Home?

Both buying and selling a home can be rather stressful. We often think of buying as the more stressful process as it involves actively sourcing the funds for the sale and finding the right purchase. But selling a home comes with plenty of obligations. You must not only ensure that the home is ready for sale, but you must also market it and ensure that you are fulfilling all of your responsibilities as a homeowner. Never mind the competitive housing market, which can be difficult to stand out in. An estimated 5.64 million existing homes were sold in 2020, while 822,000 newly constructed homes were sold in the same year, according to the National Association of Realtors.
