When you start your home search many start on the web. A fast Google search will produce 1000s of homes for sale in your location. If you discover a home that you like on a real estate website you can almost always see the images online.
It is even becoming more common to take a virtual tour or see a video tour of the house. If you have bought a house before to finding out the worth of the home is not too difficult. You can inquire what the current owner purchased it for check the real estate taxes or have an experienced real estate agent run comparables. Basically they compare what has sold in that community that is of similar specification and can tell you with amazing accuracy what this house should sell for. While the ease of the internet is suitable and useful frequently you can be lead astray. The volume of information and strain of verifying its precision is a barrier many would like a professional to handle. With so many websites to use online a home buyer will get overwhelmed with data that is often bad.
Even from the most trusted websites the data is often old within days. Real estate agents must secure a license in every state. A licensed real estate agent has access to data that normal people do not. The most up to date information on every property in their area. This information the real estate agents use must be kept up to date by all participating agents and brokers or they will be fined. Often times they have real estate information that has not even been published yet. This frequently happens inside of big brokerages where many agents work together to guarantee their buyers get the best homes in their area.
The database that real estate agents use is called the Multiple Listing Service or MLS for short. Every location in the United States has an MLS. While some MLSs cover more or less area depending on the number of residents of those areas. The first purpose of an MLS is to allow participating real estate agents to make offers on houses to other agents when they find a buyer. The MLS home information is often available through other sites on the internet. Although there is no need of third party sites to keep their data updated and accurate for most occurrences for-sale-by-owner (FSBO) houses cannot be straight added to an MLS because the owners is not a participating member of the local Realtor association.
FSBO homes can be difficult to find although internet experienced FSBO homes are able to get the word out about their property today.
What is a Realtor? Oftentimes real estate agent and realtor are used interchangeably. However they are not really the same. A Realtor is a licensed real estate agent who is also a subscriber of the National Association of Realtors. Realtors are required to abide with a strict code of ethics and behaviour. Often real estate agents now have their own websites with their area MLS information displayed. Along with non-real estate websites that provide data on FSBO foreclosure sites county assessor sites and valuation and marketing information sites. The excess of real estate information on the web makes sorting through and actually understanding more difficult than ever before. Regardless the mountain of real estate information available many properties are still sold through real estate agents listings on the MLS. With the rise of the internet the houses listed on the MLS are available for all to see. Gone are the days of print advertising. With so much real estate information available it can be tricky to pick the best real estate agent for you. Many agents specialize in a type of sale or in specific client. Picking the one that best fits your requirements will allow for a easier home buying experience than with a real estate agent that you don’t connect with. All established agents will have reviews available online for you to read through as well.
