    🏠 Selling Your Home on Your Own: 🤔 Buyers, Sellers, and Real Estate Agent Perspectives

    Welcome to "The Michael and Patty Podcast" 🎙️, your premier audio destination for all things Prince Edward Island Real Estate! Join seasoned pros Michael and Patty as they unpack nearly four decades of full-time experience in PEI real estate, offering you unscripted, expert insights with each episode. 🏡✨ Selling your home without an agent offers several advantages, such as saving on commission fees and having complete control over the process, including setting prices and scheduling viewings. Direct communication with buyers can lead to quicker negotiations, and your personal investment in the property can be persuasive. However, there are significant drawbacks. Without an agent, your home may have limited market exposure, and you’ll need to handle all marketing, which can be time-consuming and challenging. Pricing the property correctly and navigating negotiations without professional expertise can be difficult. Legal risks are higher as well, given the complexity of real estate transactions and compliance with disclosure laws. Lastly, emotional attachment to the home can cloud your judgment during negotiations.
